Re: [orca-list] Has anyone had trouble recently signing up for a new google account?

[Jean-Philippe MENGUAL <jpmengual hypra fr>]

Hi,

No particular problem here about it, but very hard to control fields on
Google. When I want to enter a search, even after disabling
autocompletion, 1) Orca sees field as a combo box (why not); 2) when I
write inside, no character appears (no history, no what I'm writing). So
using Google itself is a pain, I need to workaround.

Regards,
