Hi all.

I've noticed that on some webpages such as Wikipedia that vO  speaks both
the onscreen text and the title of the webpage when reading links. i realise
you can turn off either of those settings but then you get some links that
have only one of those attributes then you run into problems.  Are Apple
aware of this?  Maybe they could implement so that VO searches for on-screen
text and if that doesn't exist, it speaks the title?

Is there a reason why VO doesn't remember where you  were on a webpage when
you go back a page?  I've also noticed this happening sometimes when I hope
a page in a new tab then ctrl tab back to the previous page or close down
the new tab.  Is this an issue that effects sighted users too?


Although I think   the web rotor is a wonderful feature, I'd prefer it if it
didn't start from the top when you start using it,  It would be better  if
it  took into account where you are on the page and went from there.  The
item chooser is sometimes too slow to jump around a page but I find it more
convenient than the rotor, depending on what I'm doing.

I have mainly been using webkit, so this next one could well be a bug with
that, but, more often than not, when I search for text using the VO find
command, it interacts with whatever it has found.  IS this because I have
interact when I press the tab key turned on? Speaking of webkit, I have also
encountered the bug where it says selected on every edit box I come across.

Finally, VO has started to read the whole line when I delete the previous
word with option backspace.  I think it started after I upgraded to 10.6.2.
Has anyone else noticed this?  It happens in any edit box in any program.
