Yes, and interestingly enough, I filled out a form last night that had several secure entry fields. Two of them were findable via vo keys, but one of them needed to be tabbed to. I didn't check the source code of the page to see why this was, but it did prove your point, and puzzled me greatly. Why such inconsistent behavior? Who knows. Perhaps apple will do something about it in the next upgrade, or perhaps someone needs to report it as a bug, though it would be better if we could find publically available examples of such, so we could point apple to these sites for testing. The site I was on isn't a generally accessible one, so it unfortunately can't be used for testing. Then again, there's a lot of those when applying for student loans. *grumble*

and as with every rule, there are some pass word fields which are findable such as that on my bank site.

Yes, that is exactly what I was talking about.. With a password entry field, vo will not find it unless you tab to it. Don't know why it's setup this way, but that's how it works. Kind of confusing for new users, but workable once you know about it.

Maybe I miss the point here, but I can tab to fields on sites that are considered secure. For example, I log into my credit union site and can find the name and password field. Is this what you are referring too?

Nothing to be done about the card verification code. Since it's a secure entry field, vo won't see it w/o tabbing to it. This same problem exists with any site where passwords or any other secure information is required to be entered. I don't know why this is, but vo has been like this since I started using it back in August. The other things could use some work though. :)
