Hi Clive, But the other screen readers are cleverer than Hal in that regard. They only go into interactive mode if you press enter on an edit box, or something that requires input. They don't go into interactive mode if you press enter on a link. All the best -- Computer Room Services: the long cane for blind computer users.

In fact, it is the better keystroke to use than enter, otherwise you go into interactive mode which is used for text-entry boxes such as for executing a search and filling in forms.
