Re: [orca-list] Orca no longer speaks the contents of cells in Sheets with firefox

[Joanmarie Diggs <jdiggs igalia com>]

Hi Peter.

I don't know if it's this Firefox bug
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1794100 or not. But I'm
now working around that bug in Orca master and made some other
changes/fixes related to table cells. Could you please retest?

Thanks!
