Thanks...that  did the trick....That cured JAWS of its problem.  I will add this to my arsenal of JAWS bag of tricks!  

Thanks again.

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.
