Sara that is great to know.  I was wondering how Jaws and Firefox were
working together.

Let me know what else you find about firefox is.

I submitted "Right to Die" a Nero Wolfe novel by Rex Stout today.  It is
182 pages long and edited.  I think it only has a few mistakes in it that i
couldn't fix without help from the print book which I had to return too
soon.  I hope someone would like to validate it.

In case anyone is interested, the book was uploaded with the assistence of
JAWS version 7 and the firefox version 1.5 browser.  I had no trouble what
so ever with the submit page and found that the browse button was even
announced while I was in forms mode.  All the JAWS features that work in
Internet Explorer seem to work just the same with firefox.

Later I found one bug, though.  Shift-Enter only works to open a link in a
new page if you tab to the link.  If you just arrow to the link and hit
Shift-Enter you will open whatever link you last tabbed to.  I guess some
issues are to be expected with the first try at accessiblity in a product.
Firefox 1.5 isn't even publically released yet.  It's basically still in
beta, though it seems to function just fine.
