you don't need to use the jaws cursor to do this, but the problem here is
that the save target as item is greyed out.

Hey there.  You can save target as verry simply.  You just tab over to the=
 link, route jaws to pc, use the right click key, which is the key next to=
 the jaws cursor key, and you'll be right there on that menu.  Yes, I=
 thought you could do that with the context menue key under jaws too.  But,=
 it turns out that with jaws, you need to use the right click key instead.=
  You don't need  to go through those hoops that were described below.

Tom,

This problem has been around for several JAWS versions.  Since it doesn't
happen with Window-Eyes, I would say it is a JAWS problem.

There may be several ways of getting the right menu to display, but this
works every time for me.  While the PC Cursor is on the file I wish to
download, I press Insert+F7 to get the list of links and Tab over to the
Move To button.  Pressing Spacebar on this button seems to synchronize the
MSAA buffer with the actual link, and I can then use my Applications key to
bring up the context menu with the Save Target As choice.
