Re: [orca-list] amazon.co.uk dropdown box to change display of prices not accessible



Running Fedora 36, Orca 42.3, both amazon.co.uk and amazon.com, I can confirm that there is a problem with that dropdown box, which seems to convert to a list of some kind. Once I land on it, it does enter focus mode as I expect, but then when I arrow down, I hear "showing 1 to 16 of X results," which is what Amazon in fact does show on that part of the page. If I arrow back up it takes me back into what it calls a combo box, and I say it that way because if I wait about two seconds and arrow up again, Orca then says "list box," but then I hear "featured checked," and I can navigate the list without any further issues, and pressing the enter key on any other selection and then the tab key seems to sort the results in the manner I selected. I initially tried opening the menu by pressing alt+down arrow, but that behaved in exactly the same way I describe above. I trieb both Chromium and Brave, and I saw the same behavior on both. Firefox exhibits similar behavior, except that it switches back to browse mode and reads "dialog" when I arrow down. Simply reentering focus mode seems to allow me to select the sort order I want in the usual way.


My suggestion would be to try reentering focus mode or just arrow up as I mentioned and see whether or not that solves the problem for you. If not, then there is a further regression in the git version of Orca that was not present in 42.3.
