Hi Geoff.

Pasted below is a comment from a Jaws 7.1 user from another list by the name of 
Kelly Ford.

If you are using JAWS 7.1 with IE7, you should be aware that there are still 
some situations when JAWS will not correctly read combo boxes or selection
lists on web pages.  The majority of situations have been corrected where this 
is a problem but it is not 100% resolved.  If you are comfortable using
the JAWS cursor you can work around those places where this is still an issue 
and I know that Freedom Scientific will fully support IE7 with JAWS 8.
The situations where JAWS tends to not read things correctly involve times when 
the combo box is expanded by default on the web page or if you turn it into
a list by using alt+down arrow.

  Hello everyone. I use Jaws 7.1. I learned yesterday that Internet Explorer 7 
is out and my question is, does Internet Explorer 7 work with Jaws?
