I wouldn't disuade you Catherine from trying Firefox. Nonetheless,
their must be a stting in JAWS you can tweak to identify when you're
on a folder, and there are enough knowledgable JFW users here to sort
that one out.

Hi Ray,
Thanks for the explanation. Hmmmm I don't like this at all since JAWS
isn't
reporting levels so it's just like one combobox and the way JAWS works
with
it I can't tell what level things are at. Maybe this is the trigger I
needed to try firefox...

To add to the explanation belowe, opening the favorites menu and
arrowing down to the bottom reveals all for viewing.
Not that I access favorites this way. I usually simply type
'favorites' in the run dialogue box and navigate as in whatever
folder
view you have set up. Of course you can put more favorites in there
while you are about it if you have the link in question.

Catherine, I've just looked and what happens is that if you have
already created a file structure the whole tree of the structure is
automatically opened so that the whole tree view is available. I
found this when I did alt-down arrow. whence the whole list opens
out
down the screen.
Of course there is a create new folder option in the dialogue too.

Aha, ok...so now I'm wondering since it's a combobox, how do we open
a
folder within a folder...

Catherine, the favorites dialogue does use combo boxes now. Other
than doing an alt-down-arrow to go down the list, I'll leave it to
others to advise re. useful JFW navigation.
(I use Firfox almost all the time now, so I've become rusty with
IE7.)

I've just upgraded to Internet Explorer 7. When I just added a
favourite I
had some trouble finding the right folder in the list. JAWS says
it's
a
combobox, but I'm not sure whether it's behaving like a tree view
or
not.
Also when I pressed the first letter of the folder I wanted to use
nothing
seemed to happen.
Can anyone explain how the add favourite dialog works in IE7?
