Andrea,

My thought is that FB is making changes so that only handheld devices can
use m.facebook.com.  It will really affect those of us who go there with a
PC.  I can tell you that it works a bit better with Firefox.  It's still
messed up but at least the links work.

Thanks,
Jim

Yes, It started today.  I got an error that fb was having difficulty with 
their chat. Then Jaws started reading "same page link" every time I would 
scroll down to review updates.  The page is not refreshing either. 
Sometimes when I navigate away from the page and then go back it will 
refresh, but Jfw is driving me nuts.  I went in and changed the settings not

to read links on the same page, but the settings don't seem to stick.
Hugs, Andrea M Breier
