The thing I really really like about Firefox is using Webvisum to solve
captchas. It is a wonderful extension, and I use it in Firefox with Vinux and
Fusion all the time. So if Firefox becomes accessible before Safari has a
similar extension available, I'm using it.

Hi all,
I just saw this in a tweet:

It is a blog post saying that work to make Firefox accessible to Mac
VoiceOver users is nearing the initial testing phase and they will
need people to test beta builds in as
Hi.
I saw that tweet to and all I have to say is it's about bloody time!

it probably didn't hurt that some of us kept bugging mozilla to use the Apple
API and related dev libs. in fact, they could have done this in a single

Saying to use browser x or y is pretty old school. Sites should be
coding to web standards and browsers should be adhering to those
standards. Otherwise the web fragments into a myriad of tiny islands of
compatibility. Web standards support across browsers has been achieved

the last mail I sent to their dev team resulted in a comment about not having
the resources to maintain multiple versions of their compile tree. that
statement is just pure laziness on their part. one can use a c++ compiler with
the right switches to compile a windows executable, or a linux one
