Hi Vicky,
I have tried that but still no luck. Jaws is simply not picking up the edit
box on the google page. I even tried tabbing across from the top of the page
however, when you get to the last option before the "search button", Jaws
just remains quiet and pressing enter or space bar makes no
Did you try alt tab to get back the focus?
Sometimes, this helps.

Hi.
Google has made change's to their website, that makes the edit field more
unaccessible for people using screenreader's.
But a few line above the edit field, there is a link, "If you are using a
screenreader, than click here".
I am not sure if the text is displayed just as i have described
Yes the link is to turn off google instant
something like
for screen users turn off google instant

That's right! As both of you have suggested, it worked fine in IE 8 but it
is not working for me in IE 9.
Is either of you using Jaws 11 with IE 9 on a Vista platform?
Very Best Regards

I think you will find that Jaws 11 and IE 9 do not work together - the
hightst with J11 is IE8.

So it seems. The trouble is my newspapers from TNA are not opening up in
html format using IE 8 whereas IE 9 works fine there. I am truly been caught

Hi Waqas,
Why don't you download Jaws 12, and give it a try?
Even if you have to run in demo mode, at least you might be able to
accomplish what you need.

So sorry to hear that! May be for now, roll IE back to V8 and wait for

Yes, I have tried it without luck. The issue is not necessarily of any
clutter but Jaws not recognizing the edit box at all.

This sort of thing happens often, regularly. people upgrade their
software, only to find that their JAWS version won't work with it, not
having checked beforehand whether their version of JAWS is compatible
with the software.

ok I got the impression he was having trouble with another site as well and
that was his main focus.
that he couldn't get the output from the site in I.E. 8 and was having
trouble with an edit field in I.E. 9, I must have missed a switch in the
