Ok,

I agree!
Since i am the starter of the formsmode debate, this is the best solution form 
entering formfields.

There still is the focus-problem and the difference in handeling between Java 
and .NET.
I am sure it can be donne, but we have to cope with refreshing of fields, 
popups, sliders and specially multi-sellectable comboboxes.
Many of the recruitmentsites use these and to be honest IE works better then 
Firefox with these forms at the moment.

Sorry for the bad grammar.

I shall retest the sites with the newest vergion of Orca and let you know which 
results i have discovered.

Greetings,
