[GUI-Talk] firefox

[Lloyd Rasmussen]

It's getting better with each release of JAWS and Firefox. People need to be 
running the JAWS 18 update that came out in April or the one that is 
expected in the next couple of weeks.
In Firefox you can do alt-H for Help, up arrow once to About Firefox, and 
press Enter. Among other things, this should tell you what version of 
Firefox you are running. It should now be 60 or higher.
I would probably continue to use IE 11 or Chrome as my default browser. One 
browser is just not going to do everything anymore, so you have to be 
prepared to launch whichever browser works best for the website you are 
visiting.
I haven't really used Edge yet, but suspect that it might not be much better 
than Firefox at this point.

No, you are not doing anything wrong.  Members of other lists have also
reported problems with Firefox 60 and JAWS, so the accessibility problem has
still not been fixed.

Per the new jaws podcst, Firefox Quanton is suppose to be accessible. I
tried to change the default browser to the new Firefox, & it still isn't
accessible. I'm using the latest version of JAWS 2018. Did I do something
wrong? Also, does anyone know if edge is more accessible for us JAWS users?
