Known Firefox3.1 beta2 ARIA bugs
From CodeTalks
This contains the most important Firefox ARIA bugs that authors may wish to be aware of. We will not keep a list of every bug here, since the internal bug list is also linked to.
Please note, that this does not currently list major issues with screen reader implementations of ARIA. See the Set_of_ARIA_Test_Cases to see which widgets finally work or don't.
- treegrid: no examples, hasn't been tested and we know that ATK/MSAA will handle treegrids differently. This is an area that will need work.
- menu and menubar: events need to be more robust, and there are several related bugs aria-owns should be supported to describe structure and thus ensure proper MSAA menu events, extra events can occur, focus events must be after menupopupstart
- multiselect widgets: selection events need work -- multiselect ARIA widgets are very likely not too usable yet
- "undefined" not supported as a value of ARIA properties
- Accessible names should not include text from inner container widgets
- role="log"|"timer"|"status"|"marquee" should automatically set container-live object attribute (a reflection of their automatic support for aria-live)
- Descriptions with display:none are not read by JAWS
- Here is the full internal Firefox ARIA bug list, which contains much programming jargon.
