Re: [orca-list] another possible bug in orca's gecko code



I have found several pages with this kind of link lately. I still have access to one machine running Orca 
3.4, so will start making a list of such 
objectgs/pages to see what Orca used to do with them for my own curriosity anyway. The clickables feature has 
been of great fvalue to me, so I am sure 
it is even moe useful to those who do all of their browsing with firefox.

Hi Kendell.

Orca does not override the Tab key. Therefore, if you cannot Tab to
something it is not an Orca bug. I also cannot Tab to those items
either, even without Orca, and in other browsers.

Having said that, Orca's newish clickables features makes those
accessible. When I press Alt + Shift + A, they are in the list. I can
also navigate to them via A and Shift + A.

The reason they do not show up in the links list is because they are
not focusable. This makes Orca think they are probably anchors rather
than links. I'll look at giving Orca smarts to deal with this sort of
thing, but in the meantime, the clickables features should help.

hi all. I sem to have run across another bug in orca master. THis
one might be orca, might be seamonkey, not sure. But on, 
https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-accessibility-list,
orca cannot tab to the captcha links that allow you to select
between a visual and audio challenge. I can highlight them with
carrot navigation, and of course orca will click on them, but they
neither show up when you're trying to tab to them nor show up in
the links list. I'm planning to subscribe to the gnome
accessibility list so I can help gnome accessibility get better,
provide feedback about unlabeled controls, etc. Yawn, sleep time I
think Thanks Kendell clark
