[NABS-L] JAWS and web pages

[Mike Gilmore]

Hi everyone,

Occasionally I encounter the following situation:  I'm using a fillable PDF or web form.  When there's a box to fill out, I usually have no problem using JAWS.  Once in a blue moon, however, I'll come to an edit box that has text in it (or that won't let you enter text) and JAWS says, "Edit unavailable."

Does anyone know how to work around this?  This is really frustrating when it occurs and it always requires sighted assistance.

Thanks.

Mike
