I attempted using the F key to find the field. It reports there are no
fields on the page. I arrowed down the page tho and saw where an edit field
should by rights be, plus the Go button after it, but no accessible field.
It ties in with a site redesign they've done.
Any other jaws 5.0 people out there havinng troubles? And if this is going
to be an issue I feel Freedom Scientific should perhaps issue a free patch
to sort this problem out.
Hi,
The only thing that I have found is that with Jaws 7.10 with the new way they read out edit fields, you have the huge long descriptive text before the actual edit prompt.
In JFW 5 can you go to the first edit control on the page using a hotkey?
Andrew.

For waht it's worth Damon, Wikipedia is fine with Window-Eyes 5.5
I assume there is just the one search edit box within a form which W-E picks up fine.

Is it just me or have the edit fields disappeared off Wikipedia? It means that I can no longer search it.
I'm using jaws version 5.0. WE saw a similar thing happen in Google Local a few months ago. Is this some new way of coding edit fields that is invisible to screenreaders? What's going on here? With Google Local we discovered that people using versions above jaws 5 could use the edit fields with no problem.
This is a real blow, I use Wikipedia a lot.
