It's not an Orca thing, it's a Firefox thing. You'd have to find or
make a stylesheet that does what you want, re:
accessibility-optimized layouts, then use this
extension. I do not do this, but, since it came up, I did a
little googling. YMMV, Dave On 21/06/11 15:19, mattias wrote: So you can change layout?

Processing is left to the browser. I suppose you could use an xsl style sheet that puts certain elements, each on its own line, and tell firefox to use it, instead of styles that come with the page you're viewing. Emacs-W3 has this ability, and you can toggle it. Best Regards, Dave On 21/06/11 15:11, Christopher Chaltain wrote:There are times I definitely like the way Orca presents the layout of web pages. In Google Calendar for example, when I'm looking at the list of attendees for a meeting, I can tell which buttons and links are associated with each attendee by using flat review. At other times, it's made reading a page a challenge, such as when the text of an article is in one column of a table and links to other articles runs down the side of a page in another column. Maybe I just need to learn how to navigate HTML tables in Orca better. BTW, I must be mistaken, but I thought NVDA presented web pages in a fashion similar to Orca. I've seen others mention that it doesn't though, and I haven't used NVDA on the web much, so I just must be mistaken. On 21/06/11 13:56, Andy B. wrote:Hi. I am sort of confused. I do web development for a living. I recently migrated to ubuntu permanently because of a Windows crash that wiped my drive out totally. I am used to the way that JAWS, WE, NVDA and all of the other types of windows based screen readers lay out the pages virtual buffer. In this case, by default they are set to display a single element on a line by itself. Examples are individual links, table columns flash players, headings and so on. It looks like orca lays it out just like a sighted person were to see it. The problem is that it gets very confusing to find/get to different places on the page and it is hard to understand the layout of the page itself. An example is in drupal 7. When signed in as super user (user1), and looking at the homepage of a stock install, it looks like you have headings on the left side of the screen and links on the right side of the screen that are somehow related to the headings on the left. Like I said, I am used to being fed a page with individual elements on a line by itself. Does anyone have any ideas how I can get over this and be able to get around on pages just as fast? _______________________________________________ orca-list mailing list orca-list gnome org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/orca-list Visit http://live.gnome.org/Orca for more information on Orca.
