Hi Patricia.  I think this is an issue with the 7.1 beta.  I don't know if it 
applies to earlier versions of Jaws.  Did you try refreshing the screen with 
jaws key escape or refreshing IE with f5?

I would sometimes have the same problem with WindowEyes and IE.  It sometimes 
gets worse if a new browser window has been opened.

  Yes, the problem is happening on the Internet...it helps to know that I am 
not alone in having it happen.  I was doing some testing online database 
testing work, so that confirms my suspicion that my problem is JAWS-related, 
rather than a malfunction of the database testing I am doing.  Most of my work 
with JAWS is in Internet Explorer, so what you are saying is quite helpful.

     no Jaws expert but I understand this can happen in Internet Explorer.  Are 
you having this problem in other apps and Windows in general?

      This morning and late yesterday afternoon, I noticed that JAWS was 
reading the previous screen when I had advanced to a new screen.  Has anyone 
encountered  this situation before?  This problem is not happening 
consistently, it has only happened a handful of times.  At first I thought I 
was missing something...but, it was just enough to make me wonder what was 
happening.
