Hi All,

I am encountering a strange problem with my form. It goes as, On a form, when I select 'Submit' button, a dialog box appears, which prompts me to provide data for the 'First name' field(first name is the mandatory field). I select 'Ok' button to close the dialog box. But with JAWS focus does not move to the 'First name' field, it stays on the 'Submit' button only.

However visually the cursor moves to the 'First name' field. When the same form is tested with Window-eyes, the focus moves correctly to the 'First name' field in question.

I am using JAWS 7.0 and WINDOW-EYES 5.5 and Internet Explorer 6.0 for testing
