MessageHi Robin,

I'm getting the same thing in IE7 with XP home and Jaws 9.0.

I have tried the site with Firefox though and don't get any trouble.

Are you able or allowed to use Firefox?

Regards,

Phil Medway

  Drivers seem up  to date, video intercept is installed.

  I've since noticed in the display area that bliss and stretch weren't 
selected, so I've gone through all that and set things to all the 
recommended points. Rather than do a jfw repair, I went to the check for 
updates option and strangely it said I had the latest version, 8.0.217... 
maybe that's not configured yet from FS, so I went and grabbed the jfw 9 and 
installed everything. Re boot.

  Ok,  the telephone interface is better, but still a bit jumpy in the 
directory frame. Many combo boxes in websites now work, but the one that 
brought all this to my attention is still jumpin crazy... anyone like to 
check if they get the same problem in the combos?

  Go to www.virginwines.com and look for the set of boxes after hitting f 
twice, that ask you to refine your search. All prices, then all countries, 
go into forms mode and arrow down.

  As soon as I change one box default, my jfw starts chuntering away like a 
broken record.

  This might just be this website, so my faith is somewhat restored, but if 
so, if I can find out why this is happening, mor importantly, I can address 
the Cisco telephone interface, if this means a little scripting could sort 
me out.

  Any other suggestions, always welcome,

  Cheers, Robin

    Are your graphics card drivers fully up to date?  That will be the first 
question any tech. support person will ask.

       Hi,



    I've just been given a new pc base unit, with a graphics card Intel 
82915G controller family edition.



    I've briefly looked and searched in the FS tech support bulletins but 
nothing comes up, here's my problem.



    When on the net, if I go into forms mode for a combo box, and begin 
scrolling with down arrow, jaws goes into a non stop repeatition of the 
selected item showing in the box. Control key stops it, but only if I insert 
F4, kill Jaws then re launch it, then it stops and settles on the item 
showing. Into forms mode again, down arrow, and away it goes again, it's 
like it's a flashing neon light that jfw is reading, but the item in the 
combo box is definitely constant.



    I've seen this behaviour happening also within a new telephone interface 
I'm looking at via this pc. There's an online directory list and if I leave 
the focus on the list anywhere, jaws starts to read cells and column 
headings etc spontaneously.



    I haven't gone thoroughly into troubleshooting the display settings, but 
I'm sure it's in there somewhere, because when I right arrow along the 
themes tab, appearance tab, screen saver tab, settings tab etc, jaws is 
currently just saying, tab, tab, tab and nothing else.



    Under those settings, I'm unsure about the monitor setting, one says 
default monitor, the other option is plug and play monitor,, then 2 options, 
use default, or make my desktop settings fit this monitor.... not seen that 
one before!



    Dell G2800 machine, P4, XP Pro, SP2, 514 Ram, JFW 8.



    Any theories most welcome.



    Kind regards,
