Re: [orca-list] Live regions and XUL?

[Willie Walker <William Walker Sun COM>]

Hi Milan:

I looked at this quickly, and a bit at the Orca 
scripts/toolkits/Gecko/script.py:handleAsLiveRegion code.  We might be 
running into a situation where Orca was designed to work with ARIA 
toolkits (e.g., Dojo) and we didn't have a chance to work with other 
things that inject ARIA attributes in the hierarchy.

I'll see if I can chase it down more,

Will
