Re: [orca-list] Seamonkey and random jumping with structure navigation keys in textboxes in forms

[Joanmarie Diggs <jdiggs igalia com>]

Hey Max.

What seems to be happening is that the page loading has started, then
you kill it causing SeaMonkey to show an alert of some sort, and then
the page finishes loading. Because the original page is now gone, it's
called "about:blank."

I've stopped Orca from speaking "about:blank" in this scenario because
that page isn't really there. But I've left speaking "finished loading"
because if Orca has already announced "loading please wait" and never
announces loading is done, that might be confusing. I was not, however,
able to reproduce the "download in progress." If you can reliably
reproduce it and can send me a debug.out, I'll see if it makes sense to
suppress that message and try to do so. (It would make sense if it's
clear to Orca that the message no longer exists; but if it claims to be
on screen, it's hard for Orca to know it's not valid any longer.)

Thanks!
