Orca gets stuck when browsing humanware.ca in FF3
Last modified: 2008-07-22 19:33:50 UTC
From Steve on the Orca list: I have another web address where Orca gets stuck a ways down the page. I will paste in the URL below. First, go to this page and start reading down the page line by line with the standard down arrow key. You will hear the various FAQ questions on the page. When you get to the answers portion, Orca "gets stuck" at a link just under the heading level 2 line for Battery. It just says link each time the down key is pressed. It appears as if you were at the bottom of the page. Pressing tab simply takes you to the location box I don't believe there are any more links on the page but if I use Gecko control with insert-F12, I can alternate between down arrow press with no speech and presses of read-line key from flat review and get more text read. This is the URL. http://www.humanware.ca/web/document/stream_faq_071102.html I am using latest SVN of Orca (2395) and the latest FF 3.
Created attachment 105613 [details] [review] proposed patch Fixes it for me. pylinted and regression tested. Please test.
works great
Thanks Mike. Patch committed. Moving to pending.
Created attachment 105676 [details] [review] needed to make a tweak In writing a regression test for this bug, I discovered that going down we were not getting stuck, but on occasion going up we still were. :-( This tweak to the original fix seems to solve the problem. Already pylinted, regression tested, and committed. I'm going to reopen the bug and put it back to pending for later re-verification by Mike.
