Re: [JAWS-Users] Problem With Activating a button on a website
Hi Someone may have already mentioned this. However, when I run in to this situation with the buttons on web pages, I have to rout JAWS to PC and use the JAWS left mouse click. I hope this helps.

Occasionally, pressing insert-escape so JAWS redraws the page, the buttons become useable. At 01:43 AM 4/12/2010, you wrote: Hi Someone may have already mentioned this.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Problem With Activating a button on a website
This happens sometimes to me as well. I wonder if it isn't something about the button. Perhaps it's a nonstandard control that just looks like a button.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Problem With Activating a button on a website
Jo, Two things. First, see if you can locate the button with the Jaws review cursor and try left-clicking it. If that doesn't work, which is sometimes the case on certain websites, try a demo of another screen-reader like Window-Eyes or SaToGo. There are times when one screen-reader won't see things that another screen-reader does. For example, there was a person trying to access the blackboard site at her local community college. Jaws did not treat several of the elements on the site as links, and therefore would not activate them at all. With Window-Eyes, I could navigate to these links and activate the various parts of the blackboard site. There were probably eighteen links overall that Jaws just failed to see. I reported this to F.S., which supposedly elevated it to their development team. I haven't seen an update in version 11 of Jaws that has resolved that particular issue yet. The moral of the story is to always try to have an earlier version of your screen reader as well as at least demos of another one that you can use during those times when your main screen reader doesn't perform adequately.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Problem With Activating a button on a website
Hi Joe, I'm only using Jaws 10, but when I have troubles with buttons, I route Jaws cursor to PC cursor and do a left mouse click. That seems to work most times.
