Re: [orca-list] firefox search engine management does not display correctly when changing list order

["B. Henry" <burt1iband gmail com>]

OK, at least for the moment what happens is the list does not update, so if one assumes that one is still 
working with the 
search engine that they started working with, i.e. move google up and you see mp3search but are still workin 
with google 
things work. This of course becomes unmanageably confusing for those of us with non-stellar memories who are 
trying to 
move several items in a long list in some cases, but at least does allow positioning one or two items 
correctly before 
pressing OK and checking and continuing with the rest of the job.
