When a comma is present in the placeholder of an input field that has an associated label, the comma is read aloud as "backslash".
You can also reproduce with following simple example: <label for="test">Name</label><br> <input type="text" id="test" placeholder="before,after">
<label for="test">Name</label><br> <input type="text" id="test" placeholder="before,after">
JAWS reads this as "before backslash after".
I've noticed that JAWS reads the placeholder correctly without the presence of the label.
JAWS should read the text with a slight pause where the comma is placed.
JAWS reads the comma as "backslash".
Aside from my example above, I found a stackoverflow page where someone reports the same issue with a code example you can test over: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/71823998/in-jaws-and-chrome-placeholder-contains-city-state-country-but-in-jaws-it-is-rea
