I checked the verbosity settings again,and focused on the punctuation level under edit options. I discovered by tabbing to the execute button I could change thepunctuation level from none to most, which is what I want. So problem solved.

The configuration manager settings are saved using the file/save approach, so if you exit the configuration manager without saving first, you'll get a reminder. Are you sure that the IE8 scripts are active? Check the JAWS/options/manage applications dialog to make sure it's checked.

For some unknown reason, JAWS 9 with the IEMax scripts installed has suddenly stopped speaking most punctuation when I browse the web using IE 8. For example, JAWS now speaks "Google.com" as "Google com" with no period between google and com. I checked the verbosity settings by pressing Insert-V, and under the Edit Options, the punctuation level is set to none. But when I checked the Customize Punctuation dialog on the Set Options menu of the JAWS Configuration Manager,the punctuation level is still set to most. But when I try to change it to all and then close the Configuration Manager, I don't get the usual prompt asking f you want to save the changes, so I'm wondering if there is a problem with the Configuration Manager. I have been using the IEMax scripts for a few weeks with no punctuation problems until now. Interestingly, when I unload JAWS 9 and launch my demo version of JAWS 10 which does not have the IEMax scripts installed, the punctuation is fine with the level set to most in the verbosity dialog, but again, the Configuration Manager does not offer the save changes dialog when I close it. Any idea on how to fix this annoying punctuation problem? Thanks. Gerald
