Re: How do you select more than one item in a combo box on the internet?

Samara,
If you put your focus on a combo box and press JAWS Key plus F1 to get JAWS help on this control, you will learn how to select an item. You will note that Shift+F8 is not mentioned. This is because this key combination is for making multiple selections in a multiple-selection list box, not a combo box.

Subject: selecting multiple items from within a combo box?



Hello list,
Hopefully someone can refresh my memory as I've forgotten the key stroke to do this. I want to select multiple items from within a combo box. I think it involved the f8 and shift key or something along those lines, but it's been 
so long that I've had to do it, that I can't recall now.
