Make sure that you are using the latest jaws.

I can go to an edit field and enter the information while in forms mode. But I can't get JAWS to read what I entered using the virtual or forms mode cursors. But I discovered that I can route the JAWS cursor to the active cursor and the JAWS cursor will be in the first character of the edit field. Then I can read the line including the contents of the edit field using the JAWS cursor. If I find I need to make a correction in the field, I right arrow using the jaws cursor until I reach the first character that needs correcting. Then I route the PC cursor to the JAWS cursor and delete the bad character(s) and retype the correct character(s). And this also does not speak using the PC cursor. I don't know if this is due to the web site itself, the graphics card being used or what! -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Mail Sent: Friday, August 29, 2014 04:56 To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Jaws not reading form field Hello, Using Windows 8.1, latest Jaws and I.E. 11.
