This was reported by Freedom Scientific, but probably affects all screen readers across all platforms. STR: 1. Login to your GMail account. 2. Go to Inbox. 3. Look at the links for any of the inbox conversations. Using a screen reader, try to activate any of the links. Result: It does not work. Observations: 1. The table cell containing the subject and possible number of messages in the conversation is given an ARIA role of "link". 2. The text is nested within 2 divs and a span within that table cell. 3. The link accessible created for this does not expose any actions, making it impossible for screen readers to activate it. This appears to be new in Google's markup, I remember having seen this working previously. This prevents *any* screen reader from working with this major web app, requesting that this block 1.9.1 and also one of the next 1.9.0.x releases.

Comment on attachment 340545 [details] [diff] [review] patch I'm getting one test failure when running the whole suite: 821 ERROR TEST-UNEXPECTED-FAIL | chrome://mochikit/content/a11y/accessible/test_nsIAccessible_actions.html | Wrong action name of the accessible for combobox_expanded - got "open", expected "close" Did you see this while developing the feature? r=me with that answered/if the tests run OK on tinderboxes. Other than that, the patch fixes the problem at gmail. Great work!

Yep. I didn't think you test the patches ;) Actually I think it's a bug that aria-expanded didn't drop collapsed state. I'll file the bug and fix it so this patch won't be modified. Of course, I'm ensure to land that bug before this one. Thank you you keeping your eyes open. > Other than that, the patch fixes the problem at gmail. Great work! Great. Well we ware right then!
Marco, I filed bug 457219 for the issue with collapsed/expanded states.
Why do we pass in the state as a parameter instead of just using State(this) inside the method?

Thanks, that's what I thought. I didn't see the state reuse before but I see it now.

Attached patch Gecko 1.9.0 port of patch (obsolete) — Splinter Review
Alex, can you take a look at this? It works in Gmail, but something is wrong with the tests. It doesn't run through the tests, doesn't output a log, and the test harness window is open with some content I don't have access to. I suppose something went wrong with porting the test or with what gets included from common.js.

Attached patch 1.9.0 port2Splinter Review
I see one test failure in test_nsIAccessible_actions.html not ok - Wrong action name of the accessible for combobox_expanded got "open", expected "close" it's because bug 457219 wasn't fixed on 1.9.0. Until we don't need that bug there I would suggest to remove tests for "combobox_expanded". test_nsIAccessible_actions.xul works fine running all tests together (manually "run tests" button) works fine with fixed test_nsIAccessible_actions.html. Does it work for you?

Marco, ping
Yes, this patch works in principle, although I find it strange that I can't seem to be able to get all tests running with our usual command line. It opens the test harness window instead of running the tests and putting stuff into the log file. But anyway...The tests pass for me with your patch applied.
