Description Joanmarie Diggs (IRC: joanie) 2010-12-26 21:43:20 UTC 
In at least some pages, SayAll is failing in Firefox. Still investigating.

This hack should take care of it for now, I hope. <sighs>

http://git.gnome.org/browse/orca/commit/?id=4f2c875415dbf3b1335267d392c11cbcb4fcba7a

The problem is that the speaking of contents (including SayAll) involves this silly clumping code that assumes any given utterance will contain a list of exactly two items: a string to speak and an acss describing the voice in which to speak it. The thing is, that's not always what we get out of the speechgenerators, which is what we should be using in the first place. <sighs again>

Clump and friends must die. Seriously. I'm going to run the regression tests now. Then I will see about murdering clump.
