Try JAWSKey+Tab.  It's supposed to say the associated prompt label.

Subject: Reading text outside a drop down




The place I work has a number of forms which I have some difficulties
filling out.  What happens is I can easily arrow down throw the form.  There
are some spots where I need to press enter to turn offsomething so Jaws will
allow me to type n text.  Then when I tab to the next item I can only see
the choices and not what the question is.  Is there a way I can read the
line outside the choices?  I have tried to press enter again which does
allow me to arrow around yet it places the cursor many lines up the form.
Then I have to work my way back down.

Any suggestions would be appreciated. 

Thanks,
