Hi Dahn,
In many cases, after pressing enter, you can press alt+down arrow to get
started with these types of combo boxes.

Subject: Dynamic combination boxes
There is a critter on many web sites that I call a dynamic combo box. It
starts to look like a regular combo box, but when you hit enter to get
into it and then start to down arrow, you are taken to the first link the
box offers, or a link beginning with the letter you type. There is no way
that I can discover to actually scroll through the box's contents to see w
hat choices are there. Each and every time you use an arrow key, the page
goes to that link and refreshes.
Anhyone know what the proper term for these is and if Jaws can be made to
handle them like a non dynamic combo box?
Dan
