I was working in a web site where JAWS said mouse-over link whatever.  Imagine 
my surprise when I discovered that if I pressed control plus enter I could not

links behind it.  Looking at the link, one cannot see any links behind it 
unless you let the mouse hover over the link.  Could that be your problem?
