A listbox and combo box are the same thing really.

I find this interesting.  I was on a web site this morning.  I went to what
jaws called a combo box, the usual, go into forms mode and use alt down
arrow to open.  then jaws says list box.  I wonder then does jaws use these
terms interchangeably.

Have you've tried right-clicking on them? Just a random thought that crossed
my mind.

Try this. When you land on the list, first press the Enter key. Then see if
you can arrow up/down or if Alt+downarrow opens the list.

Try Alt+downarrow when you're on the list, and see if that opens it. Then
you should be able to use the up/down arrow to scroll through the list. Then
tab away to any other element or button. It's been a while since I used JAWS
8 or 9, so working from memory.

I'm using JAW's 8, and wondering if there is a way to open a list box on a
web site. Its Webster's dictionary, and when there are multiple definitions,
i can only access the main one. Happy holidays to all...
