This method won't really be of any use, as this type of box is pretty
merciless for screen reader users. They're in the minority, but they're
becoming more common, unfortunately. I don't know of a solution.

I'm trying to use a list box on a web page, and every time I arrow up or down, it automatically opens the new page, and I can't browse through the list box. I tried opening the list box like a combo box with alt down arrow, but it doesn't help. How can I arrow through a list box on this web page without it jumping to the next item on the list automatically? Thanks.
