Please describe the problem: Using orca 2.6 or latest orca from git repository, in some pages I can not by pass part of the content using the DownArrow key. Steps to reproduce: 1. 2. 3. 1) Using FireFox 3.0 or 3.5 go to http://www.twitter.com/wwalker 2) After the page is load press the H key until you hear wwalker image header level 2. 3) Press DownArrow and observe that orca will repeat the same text spoken in step 2 and doesn't go to the next line. 4) No matter how many times I press the DownArrow, orca doesn't go to the next line. Actual results: Expected results: Does this happen every time? yes Other information:
Confirmed. You need to right arrow or use other navigation techniques to get past my smiling face.
I took a quick look at this at lunch today. I see where the problem is and have a potential fix. I need to run the regression tests first. Assigning to me.
Created attachment 138146 [details] [review] fix This is a simple fix to handle the case of an object beginning with a link whose text is an embedded object character. Solves the problem, passes the regression tests, is pylinted. New regression test included. Will, please review. Thanks!
Looks fair to me. Please add some docs to the code, though, so we don't forget why this is being done. Many thanks!
