Hello all, I am working on a webpage which I am trying to make accessible with Jaws. Using 5.1 but not sure the version is relevant. The page contains a form with several select boxes, the contents of the lower boxes change based on previous selections. Sort of a drill-down subcategory selection. Usually, when I go to a webpage, jaws reads select boxes as "combo box" and allows opening with alt-downarrow and scrolling with the arrow keys without actually changing the value; however, on my particular form, it's reading it as "list box" and alt-downarrow doesn't work. Therefore, when arrowing through the selections, the box below is constantly changing and jaws keeps reading the url for the Ajax call. The select box code looks something like this: <p> <select name="l1" onchange="selectcat(options[selectedIndex].value)" size="5" style="width: 300px;" /> </p> The selectcat function obtains the subcategories by sending a query via the xmlhttprequest class and runs through populating the next box. Nothing really special. So if anyone knows why jfw is distinguishing between "list box" and "combo box" for an html select element, I'd appreciate hearing from you.
