Using that flag, Orca works about the same in Chromium as in Firefox, including the description of the prompt and the reading of the rendered text, so I assume this is a problem with the braille display. Here is the HTML again: Javascript Accessibility Experiment function nextMove(curresp) { response = curresp; document.write("You responded " + response + "
"); return true; } response = window.prompt("What is your response?"); nextMove(response);
Re: Why doesn't this page work with Mate?
I'm testing in Buster using the MATE DE with Chromium 80. I don't have a braille display which I assume is why I'm not getting the same problem with the prompt. Using just Orca, I get the description of the prompt and feedback while I type into the prompt but not the text generated by the document.write. Everything seems to work in Firefox with Orca (annoying, but working). What braille display are you using? What braille display software are you using in Windows?

Thanks, John I'm a web developer with a lot of experience with dynamic HTML. This appears to be the code you are talking about: function nextMove(curresp) { response = curresp; document.write("You responded " + response + "

I submitted that fragment to https://validator.w3.org/ . It reported 4 errors.
Re: Why doesn't this page work with Mate?
I am using Mate with Debian Bullseye. However, the version of Debian doesn't make a difference. It may be important that I am using Orca with Braille, When I try this code the window.prompt statement seems to be ignored, and then the browser seems to hang. typing something and then enter does nothing.

Re: Why doesn't this page work with Mate?
Why haven't I received the html file? I subscribe to the immediate list - but I have no html file sent by JJ Boyer, John, if you would send a copy directly to me. I'm just perplexed - which is usual for me. Best wishes, David On Fri, Jun 12, 2020 at 2:04 AM D.J.J.

Re: Why doesn't this page work with Mate?
Hello John, I tried it on Slint with Chrome on Firefox on Mate and it works. It is also accessible with speech from Orca, in both Firefox and Chrome. I am not able to try with braille though. Maybe post on the Orca mailing list? Best regards, Didier Le 12/06/2020 à 06:12, John J. Boyer a écrit : > Hello, > > Please look at the attached html fille.

Why doesn't this page work with Mate?
Hello, Please look at the attached html fille. It is a small experimental page. It works with Chrome on Windows, but not with Chromium or firefox on mate. Why is this? Can I make it work? It will be used to develop a word-association O game for my websites. Thanks, John -- John J.
