Gary,
I never knew this adjustment was possible! Why on earth isn't such an
important thing simply automatic? Why doesn't Forms Mode see where it's
going in the default configuration? This is puzzling to me. Well, I'm
certainly going to try this tweak, that's for sure.
Oops. I should ask. Is this option available in plain vanilla Jaws 7.0, or
was it introduced only in 7.1?

John,
If the Web site is designed well enough that you are able to determine which
labels are associated with which fields while in Virtual Cursor Mode, try
going into the Verbosity Menu and turning on Forms Mode Uses Virtual Labels.
This should allow you to hear the same labels you would hear in Virtual
Cursor Mode while you are tabbing through the form in Forms Mode.

Rob,
I don't have that problem, but I have a forms related problem.
Occasionally, when I hit enter or the space bar to go into forms mode and
fill out the first line of information, and then tab to the next field, JFW
does not tell me what that field is. For instance, if I hit enter on first
name and type in John and then tab to the next field, JFW doesn't say Last
name.
If someone can cure that one I will greatly appreciate the help.
Take care,
John

Hi, Does any one else have a problem like this? When I'm filling out some
thing jfw7.1 says that I'm in the form line above the one I'm really in. So
what I mean is say if I'm putting my user name and then tap down to put my
pass word it says that I'm still in the user name line but really I'm in the
pass word line... Now if any one understands this and has any ideas please
let me know...
THANKS ROB
