(In reply to alexander :surkov from comment #73) > Jamie, I think we need your help.

The problem is that XUL labels expose the IAccessibleText interface, but the text is empty (IAccessibleText::nCharacters returns 0). If the label text is exposed via IAccessibleText, it should work correctly. Alternatively, you can stop exposing IAccessibleText for these labels altogether, but we'd need to discuss this, as NVDA currently won't fall back to accName for labels.

Ff should only open this dialog if click on [Browse...]. Even after I close the dialog window I can neither input a file name directly into the field nor can I remove the file from the input field. It should be as easy editable as in firefox 2. I use Hardy amd64.
