User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050607 Firefox/1.0.4
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; SunOS i86pc; en-US; rv:1.8.0.2) Gecko/20060502 Firefox/1.5.0.2

User accesses firefox preference dialog window, the radio button has the name. But when user first tabbed focus on it, it issues 'no name' instead of its real name.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Launch orca and firefox.
2. Open Preferences dialog and go to 'Tabs' tab.
3. Press Tab key to move focus onto one radio button.

Actual Results:  
Orca can not report the radio button name.

Expected Results:  
Orca should report the radio button name when user tabbed onto this button.

This bug can be reproduced on vermillion_40/snv_39 with Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; SunOS i86pc; en-US; rv:1.8.0.2) Gecko/20060502 Firefox/1.5.0.2.

Actually, if you move Up/Down arrow to change the focus between different radio buttons, the name of radio button can be reported by orca. This bug can only be reproduced when user first tab focus onto this radio button.

Attachment: Test case that illustrates the problem

On further examination, it looks like the radio button is not issuing a focus event when it gets focus after you tab into the "Open links that would open new windows in:" radio button group.  Once the radio button gets focus, is seems as though you can get to the name just fine.

very similar to Bug 338234 from a developer's respect

(Image buttons in Prefs pane are treated as radio buttons for A11y)
