Re: [orca-list] Orca seems to loose focus on message body in thunderbird when using new windows

[Michael Whapples <mwhapples aim com>]

Hello,
For those interested in this issue I have opened bug 633186 which 
describes this and has a debug file showing this happening. As I say in 
that bug report, I am unsure now whether its actually a problem with 
orca or if thunderbird is giving extra events. May be someone who knows 
more of what should happen could have a look and say what the case is.
