Hi All,

I think I opened some sort of weird mode in Firefox, but I don't know 
what it is or how to close it. I hope some of you can help me figure out 
what I did wrong.

I just went to a page I visited yesterday. Yesterday I was able to read 
it with say-all and by arrowing through it. Today, however, I can only 
tab through it. When I try say-all, I hear nothing, and when I try 
arrowing, I go no where. Even using the command for reading the whole 
window produces no speech. I used F6 to cycle through the address bar, 
etc. Normally, I hear the address bar, one more thing, and then the 
page. Today, however, pressing F6 from the address bar takes me to 
something Jaws reads as "blank," and pressing F6 again takes me to 
another "Blank." Pressing F6 a third time takes me to the page. When I'm 
in these "blank" areas, using the Jaws cursor, Jaws  tells me I'm in a 
frame and says something about draggable droppable, so I'm guessing that 
message is somehow obstructing Jaws, but I can't make it go away.

I'm using Windows 8.1, Jaws 15, and the current firefox. This is the 
first time I've experienced this.

Ciao
