I'm going to have to work with the link here, since it came through rather

I'll also look for any suggestions others might have, and try them as well.

Hi Tom:
It sounds like you might be experiencing an issue wherein JAWS is not =
correctly detecting the .html language attribute and or the webpage is =
using it incorrectly. I did not check the source page closely. The = article
at the following link provides some explanation on the issue.=20 =

ng-and-jaws-how.html>
I will continue to search for a solution.
