Using Firefox 34, Window-Eyes Nine, Windows Seven.


On fictionpress.com and fanfiction.net, while arrowing through the story 
listings pages, Window-Eyes will speak the first letter of the summary portion 
on its own line, then you hit down arrow again and hear the first line of the 
actual summary. This happens, too, if you use the next text hotkey. 
Interestingly, if you go to the next story with the tab or L key, and then hit 
shift tab or shift L and then down arrow or next text, this does not happen.

List items sometimes are truncated and/or duplicated. Here's an example list, 
taken from a site I was just reading.

1.Go to BRLTTY's Website.

2.Find the Download link and press enter on i

2.Find the Download link and press enter on it.

No that wasn't a typo; that is exactly what WE reported. I couldn't copy this 
text with the f8 copy command; I had to type it out manually. The address is:

http://brltty.com/archive/Android/brltty-on-android.html

But I see this behavior a lot. What causes the truncation and duplication? I do 
not know if this occurs in Internet Explorer.

When using the next text hotkey, you hear clickables and headings. Is this by 
design? Shouldn't clickables be treated as links? Shouldn't headings be only 
heard as headings with the H command?

Again on fictionpress.com or fanfiction.net, when you go into a story and hit 
the landmark key, the name of the landmark runs together. It says Main 
Landmarkstory content.

Responsiveness is still slow in firefox, using the arrow keys, and somewhat 
slow in Internet Explorer. This is a purely subjective observation and I don't 
know that anything could really be done about it.

When using the f8 copy command to copy a message in Windows Mail, The html code 
is copied. Is this by design?

In order to help tidy up my typing, I have an autohotkey script called 
autocorrect. This is a replacement script that takes commonly misspelled words 
and fixes them. Since installing the new version of Window-Eyes this script 
does not work quite as expected. Letters get jumbled up and improperly located. 
It becomes and absolute mess. The new Window-Eyes must interfere somehow with 
keyboard input.

The script can be found here

Braille tracking has changed somewhat, as well. As an example. I could be in 
WinAmp, move the mouse pointer to a firefox download dialog and watched the 
progress bar on my braille display. But if you hit a key--shift, space, 
anything--what was on the display goes away and I have to find the progress bar 
all over again. This did not occur in earlier versions.
