then it could be either JAWS doesn't know it is a list and you can go to the list and reassign the window class. Hit jaws key + f2 then go to Window class reassign and hit enter. Set the window type to list view. Or it could be they use a different highlight color which JAWS isn't folowing. Set this up in custom highlight assign which is also there when you hit jaws key |+ f2. You can tell it to use the text color, background color or both as the highlight.

I had an issue last | week where I was trying to scan, then my friend (also blind), decided to see | | if he could have better luck with it. As a result of him not being able to | see the file that Malwarebytes had found and being able to know if it was | selected for removal or not, he accidentally demolished one of the | accessible games we like to play because some Malware scanners flag its | files as Trojans. And never mind the check boxes on that, I can't even read | | it's listings unless the JAWS cursor is selected, and even that does not | give adequate information. Since I know a little of the JAWS scripting | language, what tactic would be best to get JAWS to read all of the controls | and lists correctly without the use of the JAWS cursor? By the way, I have | contacted Malwarebytes corporation on this multiple times, and it looks like | | they don't give two dangs about || it. Any input would be great. And so that you know what I've done so | far, I've already put in to the script two include statements: Include | "HJConst.jsh", and include "HJGlobal.JSH". That has yielded no results. || || Thanks and regards, || Katherine || -----Original Message----- || From: jawsscripts-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx | [mailto:jawsscripts-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of David Farough || Sent: Thursday, May 06, 2010 10:35 AM || To: jawsscripts@xxxxxxxxxxxxx || Subject: [jawsscripts] Re: Checkboxes again!! || || Is Jaws recognizing the control as a checkbox? || If not, You can try to reclassify the control with the window || reclassification assignment functionality. || || You should take a look at this using the jaws homerow functionality to || see if the name or type of control is being reported.
