No it doesn't seem you are, I had to hit control A and delete it too. But I am just curious about something. I don't use the site that much and don't know if this would be easier for you, but... When I type a word in that search field, then actually it puts the same word in the edit box further down on the page. In your form list with insert f5, it is the third item down, it says edit. Or once you do a search in the form field dialog it will say for example eBay Keyword: Specialized Edit specialized If I had searched for specialized. When you first go to the page, do you think it would be easier to press F three times to get to that edit field which is blank where you can type your search word? Or do you think it is easier to select start new search and delete it, smile? Jaws puts you in that field automatically so I can see where that field might be preferred, but those words aren't selected so you can't just delete them without selecting them it seems. Maybe somebody who actually uses the site knows more than I do about this, ha ha.

When I go to ebay, and the search field, press enter for forms mode, I then have to select the words "start new search," hit backspace to erase those words before I can enter the text for the search. This seems cumbersome, and I am wondering if there is a simpler way to do this. Thanks.
