Description Sina Bahram 2013-10-27 17:23:13 UTC
Using the keyboard on this interface with Jaws 15 beta and IE10 on Windows 7 64-bit.

Steps to Reproduce:

start on combobox
hit enter to enter forms mode
hit down arrow to select "file upload"
hit tab to notice the previous edit field is now a file upload field
shift+tab to the combobox and select "address"
tab and notice that it's still a file upload field

Note: I've tried all the usual tricks e.g. hitting enter on the combobox, escaping out of forms mode and going in, selecting the third choice where you can just dump in the code into the edit field, and then selecting the first "address" field again ... nothing can make the entry go back to the address edit field. It switches great between file upload and the html/doc entry, though, so I suspect this is an off-by-one bug or something?

I don't have Jaws to test with but in testing with just keyboard navigation and following the steps above, I've not been able to reproduce the problem. When I shift-tab back to the combobox and select "address", the file upload field does in fact change back to the address-input input field as expected.

I'll try to get some help from another Jaws user with reproducing it. But if in the mean time you have any clues with where the problem might be, please lemme know.

(Also btw, as a noted in a comment for bug 23649, I recently streamlined the UI but as far as I know, none of the changes I made should have any effect on this problem.)
