Hi all,
This past week, I have replied to 4 messages that appeared on this list. Apparently, as you will see from the correspondence below, my responses did get through to the list, but I haven't been receiving copies of my own posts. As you will also notice, I did write James, the List Admin, but I haven't received any replies from him either. 

   Can someone help???

   Thanks in advance,

   Don

Hi again James,
I just noticed, from Bruce's post (below) that my latest reply did apparently make it to the jfw list, but I didn't get a copy of it myself. Has some setting been changed??? 

   Hope you can help.

   Thanks in advance,

   Don

Hi James,
I have written replies to 3 different messages to the jfw list, over the past couple of days. However, none of them have shown up on the list, even though I am still getting posts that others have sent to the list. 

   Can you help?

   Thanks,

   Don

There's nothing wrong with giving people the option. If auto-forms mode
were being forced on anyone, then there might be a point to complaining
about it, but it's not, so in my personal opinion, there isn't.

  I don't think I like the idea of auto forms mode at all. If I want to
  fill out something, it is so easy to hit enter to get into forms mode,
  there is no chance of typing something into an edit field
unintentionally, I always know whether I'm in forms mode or not, and if 
  for some reason, I'm unsure, all I have to do is press the key
  combination for the pc cursor to find out.
      I don't like my computer or its programs to do my thinking for me,
      and automatically putting me in forms mode when I may not want to
      be there falls into that category IMO.

    Hi, I love the new auto forms mode. However I find it annoying when
    sometimes it will automatically go in to auto forms mode when you
first load up a site. For example EBay or other sites were there is a 
    search box or username field, and the website is designed to put you
    straight to either of the boxes. JAWS then switches to forms mode as
soon as the page has loaded (sometimes even whilst it's loading), and 
    then you can't use your navigation quick keys to move around the
    page, without having to press down arrow first to get out of forms
    mode.

    I'd like to have it so that JAWS wont go in to auto forms mode in
    situations were the website automatically puts you in an edit field.

    Anybody else have any comments on this?

    Peter
