Re: [orca-list] bbc website issue with orca

[Joanmarie Diggs <jdiggs igalia com>]

When web authors use off-screen special text for screen reader users,
it breaks how text gets exposed to Orca.

My guess is that the code I wrote to hack around the problem isn't
being used for SeaMonkey, but is being used for Firefox and Chromium.
I'll take a look.

Thanks!
