177453 - [Active Accessibility] implement support for <hr>

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: Disability Access APIs, defect)

Description

[Kyle Yuan]

<hr> is a important separator of the HTML content. We should expose it to make 
AT applications understand the content easily.

aaron, I found actually HRFrame is a kind of InlineFrame, so I just need to add 
some code into nsInlineFrame::GetAccessible(), rather than HRuleFrame.

BTW, the viewer.exe is from mozilla\webshell\tests\viewer

Bill, is ROLE_SEPARATOR for <hr> something we want in our MSAA impl, or do you
think this should be for Unix/ATK only?

Bill says this is okay. We'll remove it from MSAA if it causes problems in
Windows.

thanks, aaron. I agree with you, since IE doesn't have accesible object for <hr>.
