[Blindtlk] (blindtlk) Reverting To IE 8

Michele,

I believe it depends on which version of jaws you're using with I e 9. Jaws
12 was the first version to be compatible with 9. Did you say you were using
jaws 11? That's probably why you had so many problems. I'm glad you got help
to revert back to I e 8.

Sherry

Thank you, it wouldn't show up at first, but I did get help with it!

posting on different forums complaining. Smile.
