Ah yes, I bet that in the virtual buffer the link of the senders name is above that of the subject as it appears to be with MSN hotmail, meaning that the problem is identical to mine.

This, I think, is due to the way the virtual cursor works in 8.0, as I have similar problems to, but not on the BBC site, but my e-mail provider's site. What happens sometimes is that I log in to my inbox, and click on a link related to the subject but what actually happens is that JAWS appeared to have clicked the link associated with the e-mail address to which the message was sent. So, for example, let's say I clicked on a link related to this subject, and the e-mail was from me. You would click the link related to this subject, but what actually happens is that you click the link related to the sender, therefore in my case initiating a new e-mail message. Very annoying I have to say but in about two or three attempts JAWS clicks what I've told it to click on, and not to click on anything above. This occurs in JAWS 8.0.423 demo, and possibly newer builds, but may be fixed in the latest update.

For example I use ALT +2 to go to the 'skip to content' link, press enter then go down to an article about new orders for Boeing 787' but when I press enter or space bar on it, it goes to the article above about a man dies after tombstoning. Any ideas what's wrong.
