Re: [orca-list] Firefox selection issue



Hello Christopher,

I see a really strange things. When I follow your steps pressing shit+down arrow doesn't select only one line but a bunch of lines.

It's not an Orca issue because I reproduce the same behavior without Orca.

Best regards,
Alex.

OK, go to my home page.

Once there, go down right below the heading for our favorite quote.


You'll see a line that says:


A smile on your face shows God's grace.


Try hitting shift+down arrow on that. At least for me, it isn't working.


As I said even then over on the Ubuntu homepage, nothing was working until on a random line, don't recall which one, I hit shift+end, then it started working. It still won't do it anywhere on my homepage, but it all of a sudden, after doing that shift+end on the Ubuntu website seems to be working in most places. I mean, this is just totally weird! And here's the thing. I debate, notice, I didn't say argue, I said debate, big? difference, what Jude said to me about it being a source code thing entirely. I do! agree with him that that's probably part, if not most of it, yes, but, explain this to me. How could hitting Shift+end causing Orca to then jump alive, and start working on most website, whereas before doing that, it not so, how on earth could that be related to web page source code, be it the html, or the CSS?


Yeah, my point exactly.


Chris.

Hello Christopher,

Could you tell us which lines of text are you trying to select precisely? On a quick test on your website, it just works for me.

Best regards,

OK, this just doesn't make any damn sense, pardon my language.


So, I did what was suggested with Firefox and my whole saga with selecting text, which I am sure by now has gotta be driving you all bonkers crazy putting up with me! LOL!


So, lo and behold, nothing was working, well, guess what, I went to


http://www.ubuntu.com


And tried it, hitting shift+down arrow on a line of text, and you're not gonna believe this! It worked! However, check this out, and see if yall can fathom this. I sure can't! When I go to my homepage, which is:


http://www.gshministry.org


then I try to shift+down arrow on the line of text right below the heading saying our favorite quote, which reads, a smile on your face shows God's grace, Orca won't say anything!


I did an orca+F to see if that would make any difference, and it doesn't seem to. The format of the words looks fine. Nothing fancy.


We're using Drupal V7 to power our site if that helps, and haven't modified the CSS nor the theme in any way. We're not even using a 3rd party theme. It's just the default that is active when installing Drupal 7.


What's even odder is, even on the Ubuntu homepage, nothing worked with shift down arrow until I did as suggested with shift+end. Only then, did things start working everywhere aside from on my own website.


So, I don't understand! What on earth could be causing my website to not let Orca read that, yet everywhere else only after hitting shift+end would magically just then start working?


I'm going through chemo trying to figure this out! LOL!


Chris.
