Re: Can't Enter Text Into Forms Mode Field

I'm sorry, Andre, but this did not work for me either.

Very strange and very frustrating.

This is a problem that I don't recall having, until relatively recently.

Hey Tom,

Starting at the top of the web page. I sometimes just hit the "e" key and
it takes me directly to an edit field. Then arrow up and down to open the
edit box. Repeat e key for multiple edit fields. Might be a long shot but
might work. Good luck.

Andre

Bill:

I tried this, but no joy.

I still get the higher click, which indicates to me that I'm in forms mode,
but I still can't enter text into a search or edit box.

Have tried this on google, and on several other search sites.

This is the case whether I tab or arrow down to the forms field.

Hi, Tom. I don't know that this would solve your particular issue, but,
sometimes, refreshing the page with the function key 5, F5, will bring up a
search box where you can enter data.

Hello, everyone.



I'm still having issues typing characters into the edit box when on
the internet with my home Windows 7 PC.



I can arrow down or tab until I hear the forms mode sound, but when I
type, nothing gets entered into the edit box.



I had someone sighted check, and nothing gets entered onto the screen
when
I
do the typing in forms mode, even though the sound indicates I'm in
forms mode.



I find the issue both in Internet Explorer and in Firefox. And, I
have tried performing searches on several different web sites where
info needs to be entered into the search box.





Is there a Jaws or other setting I should check to troubleshoot the issue?



For the record, I'm using Jaws 14 on this particular computer.



Thank you!



Dr. Tom Behler from Michigan
