Re: [orca-list] Firefox 4.0 and Tabbing to Links




yes joanie,
You are right.
I am looking at the code and the diff tells me that there is some patch been included. And obviously since I know for sure that it is bil's code which has not been committed. I don't know why is mozila not concerned with such a critical and serious problem regarding accessibility. Its strange that the bug is reported long time back and a patch has been made by our friend who is matured enough and knows exactly what he is doing. I know the mozila team is very serious about accessibility. this one incident however feels strange given their dedication.
happy hacking.

If you try vinux 3.0 dvd, the problem is not there with ff 3.6
I suspect that is because (if memory serves me) Bill Cox has included
his patch for the Mozilla bug in question [1] in Vinux. It has not yet
been committed upstream (i.e. in Firefox from Mozilla). As a result,
anyone using regular ol' Firefox 3.6 (from 11 June 2009 or later) or
Firefox 3.7 or Firefox 4.0 will experience this problem.

Take care.
