Hi to all on list, I am happy to say that I managed to get combo boxes working with ie 7 and Jaws 7.1 using custom highlight assign. I went to www.audible.com and then to www.canada411.ca In both cases, combo boxes were already working great provided that I arrow down slowly. I do admit there are times when, jfw will stop reading; it's like focus is lost so things aren't perfect. When this occurs I just tab once, then shift tab back to get the combo box working. I believe both sites have the same fore and background colors. I must have made this adjustment on another site with similar fore and background colors, I forget which one though. I'd be more than happy to share my internet explorer.jcf file if anyone wants it. Just send to hspearson@xxxxxxxxxxxx to keep what should be private requests off list. I make no guarantees this will work on all sites using combo boxes but it's a start.
