Re: [orca-list] more than one blank space are not recognized in thunderbird

[Michael Whapples <mwhapples aim com>]

Hello,
Yes I find that too, however I didn't thing it was a bug, I thought it 
was related to the characters thunderbird uses when there are multiple 
spaces. In fact I have just confirmed what thunderbird uses by looking 
at the source for your message and I find the first two spaces in your 
example are inserted as non-breaking spaces (html character  ). Now 
should orca announce those, if so add such a bug/request for it.
