[nabs-l] JAWS and application mode

Hi Patrick,

I have encountered this problem on several occasions, and the
keystroke I have personally used to turn off Application Mode is
Insert plus z. I believe that application Mode is designed to enable
JAWS users to interact with web pages as they would  with regular
Windows applications (e.g. dialog boxes with input controls), although
to be honest I'm not quite sure what that means exactly. Hope this
helps!

Katie
