Hello all.  We have been revising the JAWS script files as part of our work
on DBT
10.6.  Among other things, we have fixed some focus issues.  This discussion
is a good reminder to use a braille display with JAWS during our testing.

Sincerely,
Caryn

Ann,

I think your problem is the result of a change in focus of the
display.  As you know, screen readers try to report every time focus
changes for any reason.  jSometimes this works well, and sometimes it
works so well that you see things you don't care about, such as
pieces of the status line.  I haven't seen that particular problem,
but I have seen other quirky things that suggest focus issues.  I'm
not sure what to do about it, though I share your frustration.

Steve
