Re: [orca-list] problems when reading the attached message using thunderbird

Hi Will,
I am using the latest Orca from trunk, ubuntu 8.10 and thunderbird 3.0 nightly build downloaded from the ftp mozilla download site. 

This is the information present in the about:
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.1b4pre) Gecko/20090329

Hi Jose:
Are you using the latest Orca from trunk (or at least Orca 2.26.0) and a Thunderbird 3 build? Alternatively, which OS distribution and version are you using, which version of Orca are you using, and which version of Thunderbird are you using? 

Will

3) Open any message.
4) Activate the view menu pressing alt+v.
5) Press the down key until hear message body as menu.
6) press enter or press the right arrow key.
7) Make sure that the option original html is selected.
8) Open in thunderbird the file saved in the step 1. In the file menu you find an option to open saved message. 9) Scroll in the message using the down key until you reach the following line: 
The user interface is divided into logical panes ---//
10) Press down key again.
At least for me orca repeats the same line, I can not read the next line. 

Thanks.

    Toward An Accessible Democracy --- White House Moderator AxsJAXed!
This is not directly Emacspeak related --- except that it is useful for emacspeak users. Project AxsJAX, combined with Fire-Vox does for Web-2.0 applications what Emacspeak does for applications written within Emacs. Charles and I just announced AxsJAX For White House Moderator <http://groups.google.com/group/accessible/t/5a0c716c9f064b62> --- an AxsJAX extension that applies W3C ARIA to the /White House Moderator/.I'll append the article below: 


    An ARIA For The White House Moderator
Google-AxsJAX <http://google-axsjax.googlecode.com> was launched in late 2007 as a library for access-enabling Web-2.0 applications. Since then, we have released accessibility enhancements for many Web-2.0 applications via the AxsJAX site as early experiments that have eventually graduated into the products being extended. Today, we are happy to announce an early AxsJAX extension for Google Moderator that enables fluent eyes-free use of Google Moderator as seen on the White House site. 


      HowTo: Brief Overview.
For details on installing and using AxsJAX extensions, see the AxsJAX FAQ <http://google-axsjax.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/docs/faq.html>. Briefly, you need Firefox 3.0 and a screenreader that supports W3C ARIA. Users who do not have a screenreader installed can most easily experience the results by installing Fire Vox <http:///www.clcworld.com>, a freely available self-voicing extension for Firefox.
With the AxsJAX extension in place, you can use Google Moderator via the keyboard, with all user interaction producing spoken feedback via W3C ARIA. Here is a brief overview of the user experience: 

   1. The user interface is divided into logical panes --- one listing
      topic areas, and the other listing questions in a given topic. At
      times, e.g., before a meeting, you may find an additional
      /Featured Question/ pane that shows a randomly selected question
      that you can vote on.
   2. Users can ask new questions under a given topic, or give a
      thumbs-up/down to questions that have already been asked.
   3. Use the _left_ and _right_ arrow keys to switch between the two
      panes. You hear the title of the selected pane as you switch.
   4. Use _up_ and _down_ arrows to navigate among the items in the
      selected pane. As you navigate, you hear the current item.
   5. Hit _enter_ to select the current item.
   6. The current item can be magnified by repeated presses of the _+_
      (or _=_) key. To reduce magnification, press the _-_ key.
   7. When navigating the questions in a given topic, hit _y_ or _n_ to
      vote a question up or down.
   8. When navigating items in the topic pane, hit _a_ to ask a
      question. Once you confirm your request to post the question, it
      will show up in the list of questions for that topic so that
      others can vote that question up or down.
Please use Google Group Accessible <http://groups.google.com/group/accessible> for providing feedback on this AxsJAX extension. 

Share And Enjoy--

Raman and Charles.
