Carolyn,

I don't know if this is the problem, but we had content disappear in older
versions of Jaws when using a single stylesheet for both print and screen
styles. Jaws would not see content hidden in the print section of the style
sheet. Also you may want to check how the links are done. Are they
controlled by JavaScript and only appear after some event on the page (i.e.
the textbox text is not empty).

Hope this helps,
Steve

Subject: [WebAIM] Jaws is Confused!

Hello everyone,

I currently use Jaws 7.10 and whenever I go on certain websites where I know
there are links, Jaws says, "No Links". I notice it happening on a lot of
survey sites. Can anyone help?
