Totally agree with E.T here. Why in God's world! would they think it's not
worth improving Voiceover support on the mac side of things? To me, that
seems totally absurd!

Mozilla is the developer of Firefox and Thunderbird, two of their
projects. A shame if they do not think Apple is a major player worth
developing for.

hey,
i spoke to the blind developer that works for firefox and he told me
around a year ago that firefox were not as interested in mac
accessibility because there Focus is predominately windows and smart
phones.
I need hardly ad that i think this is a load of rubbish.

Yeah. Firefox is okay, but for such a great blind developer on the
team, it can't even display page-loading progress bars on Windows. So
don't expect the great Firefox to become accessible any time soon.
Yes, you can use Webvisum still, but with the added security risks
associated with enabling unsigned addons all across the board. Why
Firefox, of all companies, are taking this Apple-like lockdown is
beyond me, but ah well.

1. Firefox on the Mac is still not accessible; disreputable claims
to the contrary not withstanding.
2. Webvisum is dead for both Mac and windows versions of Firefox.
Not even windows users can use it now. For captchas, Rumola:
www.skipinput.com <http://www.skipinput.com/>
is where you can get that. So far, it seems to work okay: and,for
Mac users, it's the only solution out there: all others having ggone
by the wayside quite some time ago.

I think they did that at the beginning of this month. Don't even
get me started on that rant!
2. It never worked on the IPhone as far as I know.
3. Apparently Singing Sparrow clames to have gotten Firefox to work
successfully on the mac with Yosemite, but when asked for an audio
demo, as no one else at all is having that luck, he's not responded.
So, I'm still not sure.

Subject: mac and firefox?
HI. Just downloaded the latest version of firefox. Anyone have any
accessibility tips? or is it still not that accessible? Is anyone
able to use web Visum successfully? If so can someone explain how to
install it? I can get to the install page but when I click install
nothing happens.
ps:
does web Visum work on the iPhone?
thanks
Maria
