Hi Gena, sorry I've no advice to offer, but I had a go at the link you mentioned with Jaws 7 and all worked as normal. Thought I'd let you know...

HiMany thanks, I've followed the steps and the item was checked. As far as I can tell, jaws doesn't go into forms mode so I don't need to come out of forms mode, I need to get into forms mode so that I can enter my search string.Gena Amateur Call: M 0 E B P VOIP / IM: gena1959uk -----Original Message-----From: jaws-uk-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:jaws-uk-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Phil MedwaySent: Wednesday, July 04, 2007 9:20 AM To: jaws-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [jaws-uk] Re: Interacting with form controls Hi again Gena,The forms mode auto off option has been present in the last few upgrades ofJaws but unfortunately, I can't remember exactly which version it was introduced. I have tried your example several times and haven't been able to reproduce the problem with forms mode auto off enabled. As Val has said, numpad plus will turn off forms mode and switching toanother window may do the same although I can't be certain of this and don'thave the time to verify it at the moment. If you have a version of Jaws with the forms mode auto off option, you can change it permanently as follows: 1. When in your browser, press JawsKey+6 on the top row. 2. Press alt+s then h to get to the html settings. 3. Press control+shift+tab to bring up the misc tab.4. Tab six times which should place you on the forms mode auto off item.5. Ensure that this item is checked. You can change the status of this item by pressing the space bar. 6. Tab to ok and press enter. 7. Press alt+f4 and press y when asked if you want to save settings.

But that doesn't explain the inconsistency. Did you try the example I gave?

You can check the status of forms mode auto off by pressing JawsKey+v andpressing f until you reach the appropriate entry. The status can be changedtemporarily by pressing the space bar and more permanently in the configuration manager in the html settings.

Recently, a Google search was put in place so I could search through a list's archive and jaws doesn't seem to interactwith 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?
