[orca-list] Epiphany Browser Show-Stoppers with Orca 3.3.4 and Frequently-used site.

[Dave Hunt <ka1cey gmail com>]

After a fresh install of Ubuntu 11.10 and Orca 3.3.4 (built from sources 
on ftp archive), I have begun giving Epiphany browser a try.  I think 
it's great that text selection is spoken while in progress!  Also, the 
movement among controls and links is amazingly fast, with Orca keeping 
up.  Now, to two immediately-noticed failures, demonstrible on this 
site: http://www.mbta.com/schedules_and_maps/bus/routes/?route=70

Navigation in non-uniform tables is broken.  Go to any site with such a 
table (they're common), and use 't' to jump to it.  You will find that, 
unlike in Firefox, orca will not be focused at the top of the table, 
though "non-uniform table", with 'y' rows and 'x' columns will be 
spoken.  If you try to use any of the table movement commands, like 
'alt+shift+up', orca will say "not in a table".  Using the un-modified 
arrow keys, I am not able to navigate this table.  Tab will just jump 
past it.

I cannot leave a combo box, in order to move to next item

Enter a combo box with the 'space' key.  a menu presents itself.  On the 
site linked above, there are two combos; use the 'c' key to land on one. 
 When I try selecting with 'up' and 'down', and hit 'enter', I cannot 
leave the menu.  Thus, only the default value for the combo is 
"selectable"?


Any thoughts on Epiphany?


Thanks,
