Re: [orca-list] bugzilla and fields

Thanks. I can confirm the problem. However, I just the following test 
without using Orca:

1. Use Accerciser to monitor all object accessibility events coming from
   Firefox
2. Arrow up and down in the popup field.

Results: Absolutely no accessibility events.

If Orca doesn't know things are changing, Orca cannot do anything to 
present the changes. Sorry!
