Description Joanmarie Diggs (IRC: joanie) 2007-12-21 01:23:58 UTC 
If there is a line that begins with a link, and that link began on the previous line, pressing Down Arrow will cause that line to be repeated.  Pressing Down Arrow a second time will move us on as expected.

Not only do we repeat certain lines on the way down, we skip a line on the way up.

This patch seems to solve the problem.  Already pylinted.  Mike please test.

Just got off the phone with Mike.  He thinks this one is good.  Patch committed, moving to pending.  Now to write more regression tests. :-)

I think I've found another problem site that belongs here.  
Take a look at: http://wine.woot.com/ 
As I arrow down through this site all seems fine until I get to the details for each bottle.  At that point until the end of the third bottle I hear parts of many of the lines repeated as I arrow down.
Comment 4 Joanmarie Diggs (IRC: joanie) 2008-01-08 20:55:43 UTC 
I am not seeing any line repetition on wine.woot.com.  However I do see it every once in a while on other sites.  In those cases the problem is that we are not moving to the next (or previous) line, but rather moving to a different location on the same line.  As such we speak the text again.

As discussed in the team meeting, we are going to close this bug and address the caret related navigation issues in bug 506360.
