I wouldn't disuade you Catherine from trying Firefox.  Nonetheless,
their must be a stting in JAWS you can tweak to identify when you're
on a folder, and there are enough knowledgable JFW users here to sort
that one out.

Cheers,

Hi Ray,

Thanks for the explanation.  Hmmmm I don't like this at all since JAWS
isn't
reporting levels so it's just like one combobox and the way JAWS works
with
it I can't tell what level things are at.  Maybe this is the trigger I
needed to try firefox...
