When an HTML document includes an <iframe>, which in turn includes another nested <iframe>, the content of the actual content inside that second-level <iframe> is completely ignored by JAWS. Content itself can't be reached with reading keys, and other functionality - such as bringing up the headings list - also does not include anything in that double-nested <iframe>.
This problem only appears in JAWS+Firefox (tested with latest versions: Windows 11 using Firefox 115.0 (64-bit) and JAWS 2023.2306.38). JAWS+Chrome, NVDA+Firefox all work correctly.
Expected result
content inside the second-level <iframe> should be exposed/reachable using JAWS.
Actual result
content inside the second-level <iframe> is completely hidden from JAWS.
jaws-firefox-single-nested-iframe: open the index in Firefox; the content of the single iframe can be reached/accessed as normal
jaws-firefox-double-nested-iframe: open the index...and all of a sudden JAWS fails to see/reach the content in the double-nested iframe
Included also a screen recording of both cases - here, for clarity, I even open JAWS' heading list window. In the single iframe case, it lists the content heading as well. In the double-nested case, the innermost heading is not listed at all.

Thanks for filing this @patrickhlauke Note that this problem was also evident in Firefox 114, however I do not believe it was evident in the version of Jaws that precedes the one oyu reference?
@LJWatson ah yes, apologies. from memory, this was indeed not a problem in previous versions of JAWS (when I first tested the specific page that led us to this issue, I was running an earlier version, and then updated to the latest version of JAWS. I stupidly didn't note down the previous version number though)
