Hi Krishnakant,
We are using Firefox- 3.5.9. All these information is provided in the ReadMe file - we have detailed everythign in the ReadMe file.
Please let us know in case of any further queries.
I hope you all are aware that accessibility on firefox with orca works
good with specific versions.
So I would like to know which version of firefox have you used to read
these html documents?
Happy hacking.
Krishnakant.

Dear all,
This is in continuation to our last communication related with Accessibility
of Pdf document.
As discussed last time, we have now completed the first prototype
version of the same and we are making it available for your testing and
valuable comments/feedback. As mentioned last time, we convert the PDF
file into HTML format and open the same automatically in Firefox.
Enclosed with this email is the ReadMe file which
explains the steps to download, install and run this enhancement.
Please try out the same and give us your valuable feedback.
We have tested it at our end by different teams and have found that
it works well in most cases. Some places where we feel work is required
are as follows:
Sometimes Orca in not able to read header and footer of page
Some character combinations are displayed as garbage like 'ft',
'tt'
Content
in table format is spoken by orca but it does not say the row and
column reference. Means a user can not find out that orca is
reading table content. (as orca does table reading in openoffice
writer)
We are working on these. Waiting to hear more from all.
