Hi again,
I have now identified a specific sequence of actions which trigger= s this
problem. Perhaps someone with the same kind of setup as me would see if they
can re= plicate it? I have JAWS 7.0 Professional, Windows XP Pro, and
Internet Explorer 6.= 0.
1. I go to a Web page with a table in it. For example the Sight an= d Sound
Technology Homepage at http://www.sightandsound.co.uk/Home.htm and use
right-Alt and the arrow keys to navigate within the table.= 2. While still
inthe table I use left-alt plus Tab to cycle to an= other open application.
JAWS speaks the name of the application but I find that it doesn’t h=
ave focus, i.e. when I try to move through it with up-down arrows I still
hear the content= s of the Web page. 3. I think it probably doesn’t
matter what I do now, but, fo= r example, If I now press Escape, I’m
into what I call "Ctrl with everything” mode = and I can’t get
out without restarting the computer.
Cheers,
Terry
