If you run in to that, the easiest thing to do is when you tab to an edit
field Jaws does not tell you what it is, just press the num pad plus or the
PC cursor and that will turn forms mode off. Then you can up arrow and see
what that edit field is. Then just down arrow until Jaws says edit and
press enter and forms mode will be back on and you can write again. It's
kind of a pain but it works.

Subject: some edit fields not reading in internet explorer
I have been to a few places now on internet explorer where, when you turn on
forms mode at the first edit field (which Jaws speaks), Jaws won't read
subsequent edit fields. For instance, it may say "first name" and when you
enter for forms mode on you can type that in. The next edit field is
probably last name but Jaws doesn't say it. But I can figure that one out
and type it in. But when there are several more edit fields and Jaws
doesn't say what info they need in each field it gets confusing. I think
once I tried reading them by routing cursors but that put the forms field
back to off. Is there any way to read these with forms mode on or do you
pretty much have to see them first with it turned off and just memorize what
the required fields say? I have found this to be a problem in both Jaws 5's
latest update and 4.51. I am also using XP.
