Hello there! If there are people on this list using the nightly builds with a screen reader (a program that reads web pages out loud to the blind) on Windows, please be aware that the nightly builds starting August 28, 2010, are currently broken when it comes to creating virtual buffers. Basic Microsoft Active Accessibility is working. The reason is the landing of Bug 130078 <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=130078>, which caused the accessibility API support to regress. See bug 591874 <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=591874> for the discussion and to observe the development of a fix. If you want to continue testing the nightly builds, stay on the August 27, 2010 build for now. I will let this list know when the bug has been fixed and it is safe again to use the latest and greatest. Thanks, Marco
