hi, i get something similar using jfw on occasions. and when i hit space or
enter on the okay button that appears with that message, i discover jaws has
lost focus on the webpage. if i hit tab, jaws returnes to the page and if i
then hit insert f3 to find the next occurrence of the word i previously
tried to search for, it works fine. for example today, tried to find the
word audio on an ebay page, was told searchstring not found, although i knew
it was on that page. so hit on the ok button, jfw lost focus with the page
so i hit tab and jfw returned to the page, hit control home to get to top of
page and then hit insert +f3, and surprise! found the word i'd been looking
for.
