Re: [orca-list] The tab bar in FF3

["David E. Price" <deprice cs utah edu>]

Hi, Hermann,

I'm not quite sure what you are requesting here.  Are you looking for a 
hot-key that will read all of the titles in the tabs without moving focus to 
the tabs? Or, do you want a hot-key to move focus to the tabs?

I use control-page-up and control-page-down to cycle through the tabs (each 
one is read as it gains focus), and my location is maintained  on each page 
(in other words, I can start reading from where I left off when I return to 
any given page).  The result is that, if I want to review the tabs I have 
open, I just cycle through them using control-page-up or 
control-page-down--if you reach the last tab, the next key press will cycle 
you up to the first tab.  At times I have 10 to 20 tabs open, and I can 
manage all of them without any problems using these keys.

If I'm missing the point, please let me know.

Thanks,

dave
