Re: [orca-list] Elements not announced as clickable with Chromium

[Joanmarie Diggs <jdiggs igalia com>]

I'm answering again.

Enter and space might have other assigned functionality that the web
author or browser assigns which is not clicking on it. Orca doesn't
have any way of knowing what the expected interaction might be. So
rather than risk doing the wrong thing with very basic/fundamental
keystrokes, Orca provides an alternative for pages which are not
properly keyboard navigable: The way you interact with objects Orca
says is "clickable" is to use Orca's "click" command.
