Maestro continue button behaviour in JAWS

We had someone who uses the JAWS screen reader test one of our Maestro forms. And he reported that when he tabbed to the Continue button and pressed enter, the focus jumped to the browser address bar and the page did not change.

We haven't tried to replicate this using JAWS ourselves. Could not replicate it using IE or any other browser without JAWS.

Can anyone think of some things we could try to fix this?

      Hi Lin

      This would need some investigation. Screen readers can display unusual behaviour at times. In this case I would expect the focus to be on the next page. We would need to look at the form, know the version of JAWS and the browser being used. 

      Could you please raise a defect JIRA for this to be investigated?

      Thanks

      John
