Re: [orca-list] web page issues

[Joanmarie Diggs <jdiggs igalia com>]

Assuming you are using Orca master, the only navigation-related changes
which I made recently were to treat ARIA trees like focus-mode widgets.
Navigating them in browse mode was producing unwanted effects. And the
ARIA spec states authors are expected to provide keyboard navigation for
trees. If you are not using Orca master, then I don't know.

You also stated "sometimes tab will take you through a dialog on a page
but currently it doesn't." Orca does not control where Tab moves you.
And if we get the correct focus events and the Tabbed-to elements are
properly labelled, Orca should present those. I cannot think of anything
recently changed which would impact that.

All of this said, if you are relatively certain that Orca from a few
days ago worked and now it doesn't. What version were you using a few
days ago and what version are you using now.

As Peter indicated, we need more information. Thanks!
