Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Core :: Disability Access APIs, defect, P1)

Description

[Eitan Isaacson [:eeejay]]

With the given url:
data:text/html,<ul role="menubar" style="list-style: none"><li role="menuitem"><a href="%23">Downloads</a></li><li role="menuitem" aria-haspopup="true" aria-label="Company"><a href="%23">Company</a></li></ul>

Firefox announces both items as menu items.

Safari announces the first as "menu item, link". Chrome only as "menu item".
The second item, both in chrome and safari is "button". This has to do with it having a popup.

Reproduced the issue using an old Nightly from 2020-02-21 on macOS 10.15. Could not reproduce anymore using the latest Firefox beta build 76.0b6 the second item is announced as a button.
