I'm wondering why this behavior has just started, as you seem to suggest. Is
it across the board or only on certain websites or pages?
 
In addition to insert-F7, the quick key l and the key combo control-enter,
you might try JAWS's simulated right mouse click button, which is the star
key on the numpad. This brings up a menu of several options for how to
handle a link, such as opening in a new tab. (On my system, the applications
key doesn't duplicate this function.) I also find sometimes that instead of
pressing the right mouse button, clicking the left mouse button clicks on
the link.

Hi All,
 
Recently I've noticed that when I go to links on web pages that JAWS does
not go into the links that I specify. Has any of you had this problem, and
if so, how do you correct it?
 
Thanks in advance.
