Re IE 8, in the non screen reader community, a very large percentage of people who upgrade to IE 8 are moving back to IE 7.
If I can find the report again, I'll post the link. Glen At 08:46 pm 29-04-2009, you wrote:
So far as I'm aware, no for your first question, and definitely not for your second one. Not enough people are using IE 8 yet for there to be any established known issues, though I'm sure as it gets rolled out, that'll change. As for versions of JAWS that are compatible, if he can, he should upgrade to at the *very* least JAWS 9. IE 7 or 8 won't work with anything below that, to my knowledge.

The only update is IE 8. Are there any issues with IE 8 and JAWS 10, which I should know about? Also, another question about IE 8. My neighbor is also blind and uses JAWS, but I believe he has a pretty old version, something like 6. Will IE 8 work with a version of JAWS this old?
