Hi,
Do you then get JAWS to somehow insert this into the DOM?

Subject: [jawsscripts] focusing on specific page elements
I just thought of this. If you want to bring control to a specific form
element, the best thing to do is use javascript.
One an OnClick element of a link you can call a function that says
Document.formName.formelementName.focus()
This would be the fastest way to bring focus to an element whether it be a
form or a link etc. But you need to name the name and id of that control so
javascript sees it. For example:
Function clickIt(){
Document.divName.ElementName.Focus()
}
HTML code
<a href="" OnClick="javascript:ClickIt()">
<div name="objectName" id="objectName">
Some element here
</div>
Or if you are using multiple forms
Document.formName.FieldName.Focus()
<form name="myForm" id="myForm" action=.
<input name=FieldName" id="fieldname" type="text">
Just a thought at 5 am after thinking about it.
