Re: [orca-list] Using firefox/orca search on websites

[Steve Holmes <steve holmes88 gmail com>]

In both Firefox 4 and Firefox 5, I do not hear any speech with either
the delete nor the backspace keys. I also notice that while typing in
echo word only, that I don't have anything echoed back.  Well
actually, character key echo doesn't work either.  These work properly
everywhere else but not in Firefox 4 and 5.  I can arrow left and
right through the text box with speech fine though.
