RE: Virtual Buffer Refresh

We have opened an inquiry with JAWS to explore this specific situation, but beyond that we want a solid solution to updating the virtual buffer from within the code.  If you can do it from the keyboard, you should be able to do it from within the program, at least that's our request.

Ah, really does sounds like a user-agent issue then. If the code *should* work, and does in most UAs, and (icing on the cake) did work before, then it is a JAWs issue.

Perhaps add a visually-hidden note above that section to say "If you are using JAWs encounter issues with this section please try refreshing the virtual buffer with INS and escape", or something like that.
