Hi Eifion,
Yes it is safe to assume the average Jaws user knows about insert B.  Some 
dialogs do read automaticly.
Are you new to Jaws?  Have you listened to the training tapes?

  Thanks for your reply. Insert plus B does cause the dialog box to be read 
out, but we were expecting it to be read automatically when the dialog box 
appears. Is it safe to assume that an average JAWS user would know that this 
needs to be done to read out any dialog boxes that pop up?

  Try using insert and the B key to read the dialog.  If this does not work use 
the Jaws cursor, followed by root jaws to PC.  Then use the arrow keys to move 
up and down the dialog.

   

  Use the - key at the top right of the num pad to turn on Jaws cursor.  The 
use insert - to root jaws to pc.  To go back to the pc cursor use the + key on 
the num pad.

   

  Hope this helps,

  Nigel

    Hello

     

    The company I work for has a web application that needs to work with JAWS 
6. I've fixed most of the problems, but one of the things I can't get JAWS to 
do is read out the contents of Internet Explorer's modal dialog boxes (i.e. 
those opened using window.showModalDialog). JAWS will read the title of the pop 
up dialog and mention that it's a dialog window but will then stop and not read 
the contents of the modal window. Is there any known way to persuade JAWS to 
read the contents of the dialog box?
