Hi Sandra,
If you go to a web page, and Jaws says that application mode is on, then this
indicates that the page is meant to behave more like a regular program than a
standard web page. You can't use standard reading keys or quick navigation
keys, but you should be able to tab between controls, as in a normal program.
If you find that you can't use the web page in application mode, then you can
switch to the normal virtual pc cursor by pressing insert+z. In fact, on such a
page, pressing insert+z repeatedly cycles you round virtual pc cursor on,
virtual pc cursor off, and application mode.
David.

Hello,
My name is Sandra. I have been on the list for ages and although I
haven't said much, I have been intrigued by what I have read during
the year. I have Jaws 13 and increasingly find myself faced with the
words, "application mode on." No amount of alt tabbing, f 6 pressing
and cursor changing will turn it off. I can't read anything much. How
do you turn it off? Why does it come on in the first place? Very best wishes,
Sandra.
