Ok,  does jaws anounce these as "list boxes".  I am asking in case there is 
some confusion.  The alt + down arrow opens "combo boxes" so I am not sure 
about a "list box".
I think we assumed they were the same thing.  Maybe not?

Try Alt+downarrow when you're on the list, and see if that opens it. Then you 
should be able to use the up/down arrow to scroll through the list. Then tab 
away to any other element or button. It's been a while since I used JAWS 8 or 
9, so working from memory.

I'm using JAW's 8, and wondering if there is a way to open a list box on a web 
site. Its Webster's dictionary, and when there are multiple definitions, i can 
only access the main one. Happy holidays to all...
