Re: JAWS Table behavior

Hello,

I'm fairly new to list.

I'm using JAWS 11, IE 8, and Windows XP. When I used the table reading
keystrokes (ctrl+Alt+ Left, Right, Up, or Down arrow), JAWS did
announce when you move to a new column or when you were at the end of
a row for both tables. In the first table, for example: JAWS reads the
following in the 2nd row:

Categories. Major Column 1
Categories. Minor. Column 2
Past. FY 01. Column 3
Past. FY 02. Column 4
Future. FY 03. Column 5
Future. FY04 Column 6

If I read the second row in the second table, JAWS reads the same
imformation as above in the very same way.
