Clickable elements can be very tricky, depending on how the web designer has implemented Javascript. For example, on the concertwindow.com site, There are several elements on the front page that rarely do anything when clicked. I find that i have to try various methods on different sites, including VO-shift-space, turn on mouse keys and do a num-pad-5, or use the trackpad. Sometimes just VO-space works. The nice thing about mouse keys is that they are actual mouse clicks and are not dependent on VO. Neither is the trackpad when trackpad commander is turned off.
