Hi
Sometimes it refuses to enter into forms mode and just submits the blank form.
Did you try with the search I gave as an example? Are you saying that it works
every time for you?
Thanks

Hi Georgina
I normally do the following with whatever browser I use e.g. IE or Firefox
1. Press Control Home which move to the top/beginning of the webpage.
2. Tap E to go to first form field or again to go to the next and so on
until you reach the field you want to interact with.
3. Press Enter to turn Forms Mode On and type away!!!
You can press the plus key to turn forms mode off at any time if required.
Please note in order to perform number 3 above your Virtual Cursor Mode
needs to be set to On (Insert Z will toggle it off or on).

Hi All
Occasionally, I find that jaws doesn't enter into forms mode so that I can
interact with the form element. Recently, a Google search was put in place
so I could search through a list's archive and jaws doesn't seem to interact
with it very well. Some times jaws will enter into forms mode and other
times it will submit the form. I don't understand why it is inconsistent?
Does it vary with the browser being used?
Here's the search:
