Hmm. I haven't seen that one. No, my issue is with Browse Mode not
activating properly in some instances. I find that, when first loading
my homepage when starting the browser, Browse Mode will not activate
untill I press something. Sometimes the arrow keys work, other times
it'll take a tab or shift tab, but it always takes something before WE
will read any of the page, and even announce how many links are on that
page. Also, I've found that after clicking buttons on certain sites
using enter, Browse Mode must be turned on manually when the next page
loads.

I have also noticed a weird problem in Firefox. When turning off
browse mode in google WE acts as though I've already clicked search
when I start to type.
Not sure if this is the browse issue referenced in the attached note
but this is what I'm seeing.

I feel it is our duty to be totally honest here, and so I shall. I do
not think WE7.0 is ready for release at this point. Support for
Firefox 3, which is a much-advertised feature, is at best,
incomplete. The browse mode issues that I, and several others have
reported still exist in FF3, as do the Onclick issue and screen
refresh issues I have reported.
To clarify, Window-eyes now doesn't even report certain things that
really are onclicks as such. This causes problems on certain web
sites. Also, the previously mentioned screen redraw issue, where one
must continuously redraw the screen when browsing sites that use
frames. I have reasons for wishing to continue to use Firefox, and
while I understand the needs of one individual need not be meant if
it doesn't benefit the whole, I am not the only one who has
experienced some of these issues. I only repete all this because my
previous reports meant with no response. There is no indication these
issues are being addressed.
On another note, there is a brand new FF3 issue I have discovered.
Certain visited links are appearing as same page links, when in fact
they are not. This is probably the most minor of the issues I have
noticed, but it deserves to be reported. OI am also still having the
reading issue when composing a message in Thunderbird, but I admit
that may be a script problem rather than a Window-eyes one. I hope I
haven't ruffled too many feathers, but I felt my honest opinion
should be stated. Thanks.
