Patch to speak/braille the title of the tab that the user just switched to (4.80 KB, patch)

Description Willie Walker 2007-03-04 14:20:45 UTC 
Firefox supports the notion of separate tabs for URL content (e.g., "File->New Tab"), and you can navigate between them quickly using Ctrl+Tab.  Orca currently does a poor job when handling navigation between these beasts.  At a minimum, Orca should announce the title of the tab when the user switches to a new tab.

Patch to speak/braille the title of the tab that the user just switched to

This patch adds an object:visible-data-changed listener and detects if it was caused by a new tab being brought into view.  It then speaks/brailles the title of the tab.
