Tim, sorry I missed this earlier.  Can you try at-poke on the scrollbar and tell me the accessible name, and state set?
Comment 2 Tim Miao 2006-11-27 01:54:24 UTC 
David, it's OK for you have noticed this bug.  :)
The problem is the vertical scroll bar is not visible in at-poke. It's odd.
Comment 3 David Bolter 2006-11-27 02:51:06 UTC 
I'm assigning this bug to Yelp since the scrollbar should probably be made to expose the state: 'VISIBLE'.  I'm not sure why this isn't happening automatically.
Comment 4 korn 2006-11-27 03:56:54 UTC 
I believe the issue is that yelp is now using gecko for content, and we aren't getting the vertical scroll bar from gecko.

Probably true.  What version of gecko is being used?

If we can confirm that the scrollbars are not exposing the necessary states, we should move this bug to mozilla and close this one as NOTGNOME.

Thanks for the bug report.  There is already a  bug report about this against yelp (bug #355696), which has been marked as a duplicate of The Infamous A11y Bug of Yelp (bug #157941).

I'm marking this a duplicate of bug #355696.  I recently tested yelp against gecko 1.9 and found the majority of our a11y problems solved (not solved in the 1.8 brnach), but I didn't check the scrollbar.  I'll test when I get home.  FWIW, this should be marked as NOTGNOME and opened in mozilla bugzilla if it isn't already known as the scrollbars are gecko constructs (Unless it's already solved in 1.9, in which case, its probably a special case of bug #157941).

Is this a known issue of Gecko a11y?

Comment 8 Tim Miao 2007-11-22 03:00:23 UTC 
I think it's true.
