Hi Terrence: The current support for Firefox 2 is definitely not anything I'd want to call compelling access: it kind of works, but is clunky and doesn't work well for many real world web pages.
Earlier this year, we needed to make choice for focusing our efforts to web access, and both the Orca and Firefox teams agreed that we would not focus on Firefox 2 for accessibility. Instead, the focus for compelling access is Firefox 3 (due in spring '07). We're working very hard on this right now, and I hope that we will have skeletal stuff available for testing well before the end of the year. With respect to keyboard commands, there's a web page here: http://live.gnome.org/Orca/KeyboardCommands In addition, you can put Orca in a learn mode that allows you to press key combinations on the keyboard and braille display. In learn mode, Orca speaks and brailles the action that would have been taken by Orca if learn mode were not on. To enter learn mode: Insert+F1. To exit: escape.
