The following instructions work with JAWS on the Web. They probably
also work with Window-Eyes. To make multiple selections in a multi
select combo box, get the cursor on
the combo box, then go into forms mode with the enter key and then do a
shift key with F8 to go into extended select mode.
Now as you up and down arrow, use the space bar to select or unselect an
item. When you are finished, use shift key plus F8 again to get out of
extended select mode. You can now tab to the go button or next form
field

Subject: multi-selection on a web page with jaws
Hi there:
I've encountered a few webpages that state if you want to select more
than one option in a selection box, to hold down the control key while
selecting.
Jaws doesn't tell you what is selected however.
Once I click continue, the webpage always reports only having 1 thing
selected.
Any ideas?
Martin
