Hi to all.

I have found a possible solution for the onmouseover problem with JAWS 10.0 and Internet Explorer I wrote about yesterday. This is a temporary "fix" that must be performed each time you open a website in a new window and each time you open the Internet Explorer browser if you want to use the onmouseover feature. Fortunately, the procedure is very simple.

1) Press f12. This opens up a new window that says "Developer Tools".
2. Tab down to "Select Element by Click (Ctrl + B) button and press the Enter key. This button will now be checked.
3. Close the "Developer Tools" window by pressing alt+f4.

As I said, this works, but you will have to do it each time you open the Internet Explorer 8 browser and each time you click on a website and it opens in a new window.

Here's hoping a more permanent solution can be found.

Ted
