Hello Serena,
The easiest way that I have found is that when JAWS tells you that
you are at an edit box, you press enter and the edit box will be activated.
When you are finished editing the box, press the virtual PC cursor key on
your PC keyboard. Mine is the + key on the number pad (with num lock off of
course).
This works on all browsers, but some browsers work better on
different sites.
I hope that this helps!
Dog

Hi Michael,
I wonder if this would help me on the many job app sites when Jaws correctly
says the app wants your first name, last, etc., but then doesn't say which
phone number(s) the app wants? I'm using Firefox, so how do you turn the
edit function on and off using Jaws?
Thanks,
Serena
