Re: [orca-list] Debugging Webbrowsing

Hi all,

thanks for your suggestions. Particularly, the Orca+a binding is good to
know about. Indeed, I have succeeded entering a search term this way.
Strangely, this does not seem to work quite always as expected. At some
point I had the impression that Orca switched back into navigation mode
while I was typing. Generally, the response of Firefox and / or Orca to
my key strokes seems to be lagging considerably more and more often on
my AMD system than on the Intel system.

May be I should check whether all settings regarding popup blockers like
UBlock Origin are the same. However, I seem to have difficulties
checking the settings of UBlock Origin. When I select „add-ons and
themes“ from the extras menu, I can find UBlock Origin and choose
settings. But then I am stuck, somehow, with Orca saying
„1about-scheme“. Do you know what to do in such a situation?

Thanks again for your advice so far,

Elias
