Re: [orca-list] Keybindings for ARIA landmark roles




hi will,
By the way m and shift + m sounds perfect to me as well.
happy hacking.

Hey Will
M and shift-m seem perfectly reasonable to me. I guess I'm not  
particularly bothered either way, whether their are default bindings  
or not. Truth is I don't use structural navigation as often as most  
people seem to, primarily because I find that if i become too used to  
it I end up taking longer to navigate a page that doesn't have it.  
Using next/previous large object, and sometimes prev/next heading, is  
about the extent to which I use structural navigation, and I don't  
mind using the large object commands as a page will always have large  
objects, though whether they're the objects I'm interested in is  
another matter :).
If you're going to have default bindings for these, your idea of m and  
shift-m sounds good.

Hey All:

I need your input.

Right now, we have two unbound functions in Orca to jump to the  
previous and next ARIA landmark.  The main purpose of a landmark is  
to help identify portions of a web page that are of some typical  
interest to a user.  For example, the "search" area, the  
"navigation" area, the "main content" area, etc., can all be  
landmarks.  See htp://www.w3.org/WAI/PF/aria/#landmark for more info.

To avoid cluttering the keymap, we've not bound these two functions  
to key combinations in Orca.  I've received a few requests, however,  
to provide default keybindings for them.

An example use of landmarks is at http://wiki.codetalks.org.  If you  
want to try them out:

1) Give the Firefox window focus
2) Press Ctrl+Orca+Space to bring up the Firefox-specific  
preferences for Orca
3) Go to the Keybindings Tab and define bindings for the next and  
previous landmark functions.

The 'l' and 'Shift+l' bindings are taken for navigating between list  
items, but 'm' and 'Shift+m' seem to be free.  I'm curious about  
your thoughts on using these keybindings for navigating between  
landmarks. 'm' would take you to the next landmark in a page and  
'Shift+m' would take you to the previous landmark.
