RE: Checkbox Issue

Looks like JAWS is adding the text just before the checkbox name in the
insert+f5 dialog, but I'm not sure why. It only is doing this in this
dialog, not when tabbing or in VPC cursor mode. The accessibilty name
is correctly identified by the player. I'll check with Freedom
Scientific.
Thanks,
AWK
