Hi Ammro, I've already tried tabing. It isn't a jaws focus issue. I get the
same using NVDA. It's definitely a browser issue. As I said in my post the page
doesn't load. The progress bar stops at 38 percent. Tabbing takes me to the
address bar, and shift tabbing back puts me back where I started. It's just a
mystery why the problem's limited to certain websites, and why it's happening
to me and nobody else.
I'm using Jaws 11, XP pro SP3, fully updated, and IE8. Everything was fine
with IE6, the problem has just appeared after upgrading to IE8.
I have compatibility view set to view all sites in compatibility view.
John.

OK John, and what screen reader and version are you using?
As you say, this is not a general problem as IE8 works fine. When this issue
happens to you try shift tabbing once or couple of times. Assuming you are
using Jaws, sometimes the Jaws focus gets stuck on the toolbar when a new page
is opened. Just a thought really.

Hi everybody, I recently upgraded to IE8, and I've started finding that
websites that were fine with IE6 won't display. I suspect it's not a general
fault, as I haven't seen anything on the list. Two examples are play.com and
argos.co.uk. In the case of play.com the top line of the page loads, and that's
all. The rest of the page is there, and I can read it with the jaws cursor, but
it won't load properly.
In the case of argos.co.uk, as with play.com I get the top line of the
page, but that's all. the progress bar counts up to 38 percent and then stops.
Also, like the other case I can see the rest of the page is there using the
jaws cursor, but it won't load. I've tried compatibility view in both cases but
to no avail. Any ideas what the problem could be? It's very frustrating, but I
don't want to go back to IE6 if I can avoid it, as I was sick of websites
bleating at me to upgrade.
Thanks,
John.
