Sadly both of these browsers are not accessible. really the only option
right now is firefox. like I said firefox on the Gnome desktop is very
accessible. I just don't know why the xfce desktop along with the menu
is accessible. I've also installed libreoffice and this is also
accessible by default. Thanks for the suggestion though. I'm not sure
what is different between firefox and thunderbird and the rest of the
OS. Again any help would be highly appreciated. Thanks

have you tried chromium or opera as the web browser? That might fix it.

Hello list,
i'm a blind user and I use the Orca screen reader. I've been
working on getting Orca to work with xfce. So far everything has
been going really well. So far I've been able to make the xfce
desktop accessible along with the xfce menu and other programs
such as pidgin. Here is a problem that I'm having. When I open
firefox and thunderbird Orca can't read anything in these
programs. Using the gnome desktop both of these programs are very
accessible. So i'm not sure what I could be missing. I noticed
that there is a package firefox-gnome-support and this was already
installed. I also installed gedit and this application was
accessible without having to do anything to it. Any help would be
greatly appreciated. This would be a big boost for the blind
community to have a light and fast desktop to use as an
alternative to Gnome. Thanks for your time and help.
