Application mode is invoked by JAWS because the page is coded as an application. This is done through HTML codes. Pressing numpad plus brings you back to virtual mode and makes the page readable.

Does any one know what this application mode actually is and why it automatically turns on when the web page loads? Knowing this may make it easier to figure out what to do next. Tom Bisset -----Original Message----- From: jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Joe Smith Sent: March 2, 2011 10:10 PM To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: APPLICATION MODE I was attempting to find a product on the Lowes Building Supply website www.lowes.com. After the site loaded, it stated that Application Mode was on. I am using Windows XP, Explorer 8, and Jaws 12. I then discovered that I could not use any of the Jaws navigation keys to view or link within the site. Does anyone have an answer to this problem?
