This happens to me on facebook as well, although I have found a temp work around if anyones interested. It doesn't always work, but it might get you functionality for a little while longer lol!
Press insert z, wait a few seconds, press it again, keep repeating the second step[you should only have to do this once] and it will exit forms mode[wtf? lol], and sometimes you will have proper vertual cursor support. It only seems to happen on facebook for me, although I've heard of cases of it happening in ebay search pages, as well in IE. I know of one person who's switched back to jaws9 out of annoyence.

Speaking for myself, yes, I experience this problem with Firefox 3.1b2. Chris missed that I've discussed it with FS. They tried to replicate it, but without access to the pages in question, they couldn't. If others are encountering problems involving this version of Firefox with JAWS 10, I hope they will report them. Again, JAWS 9 works fine with Firefox on these pages.----- Original Message ----- From: "E.J.

Have you tried this in Firefox 3.1b2?Everett ----- Original Message ----- From: "Chris Smart" <chris_s@xxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, January 12, 2009 12:59 AM Subject: Re: Firefox dialogs will not read properlyAdrian... please report this to FS. It might be related to a problem I'm having with Jaws 10, Firefox 3, and Facebook.If I log onto Facebook then click on Inbox to go to my inbox, Jaws refuses to read the screen, says something unhelpful when I press tab, arros are unresponsive etc. If i navigate to another Web site, Jaws is still screwed up, and I have to completely unload and reload it to clear the problem.so, maybe we're encountering the same odd behavior. I don't have this problem with Jaws 9 or earlier.Chris -- JFW related links: JFW homepage: http://www.freedomscientific.com/Scripting mailing list: http://lists.the-jdh.com/listinfo.cgi/scriptography-the-jdh.comJFW List instructions: To post a message to the list, send it to jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxxTo unsubscribe from this mailing list, send a message to jfw-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the word unsubscribe in the subject line.Archives located at: //www.freelists.org/archives/jfwIf you have any concerns about the list, post received from the list, or the way the list is being run, do not post them to the list.
