Brian,
Try this site, and look at the combo box for product categories for
starters. It's a bit of a pain when it flies off to the first item once
you open the box and try to down arrow with alt or windows key.

It may help. But it really depends upon the coding of the HTML. Please
let me have an example.

Is there a work around like this when you find a site where only the
first=3D20
item in a combo-box is read? would changing this setting make Jaws
read=3D20
every item in the list once you've opened it with alt+down arrow?
thanks for anyone who can provide comments or help on this matter.
Cheers now,
Marie
