Thanks David and Glen. I've not tried the latest as we don't have it here in the company ( ☹ ) but I'll give that a go. I was wondering about the classes being a factor too.



Will download a demo and give it a shot.

Just curious: have you tried this with the latest release of JAWS 2022?



I find I need to keep updated with my operating system, browser, and assistive technologies' at all times to keep up to date.



Digital technologies change consistently, David

With JAWS I'm hearing blank between each paragraph and need an extra down arrow (2 per para) - NVDA correctly doesn't say blank and moves para to para as I'd expect.



It's been a long time since I've used JAWS so is this just an annoying glitch that's JAWS specific (JAWS 18) or is there something in this code thatNVDA is ignoring but JAWS gets annoying with.
