[nvda] Re: no changes to nvda trunk for nearly 3 days?

Sorry for butting in just now, but my Internet connection has been very spotty over the past several weeks and I at times have to play catch-up. But anyway, I have tried Firefox both with JAWS and NVDA, and I really like it. I was going to try out Webvisum, but the code in the confirmation email I got didn't work. When I tried to contact the Webvisum developers about this, the response I got basically told me what I already knew--that I had to enter the code to verify my registration. As I said my Internet connection has been rather spotty at best so there you go. I think both Firefox and IE are quite good and I use them interchangeably when I can. I'm also very impressed with the development work that has gone into NVDA so far. I find the progress beeps to be a very handy feature.

Jamie I agree with you! Firefox is a future, IE is the past and also closed-source, so anybody who wants IE support in an open-source screen reader, he can sit down and start to learn programming and then make this support for yourself. Anybody smart enough will switch to Firefox without any problems, plus will get even better, faster and much stable Web browser, and it even takes less memory.

So do these  bits of programming to add these  extras help a mass of
people, ie as much as getting IE to work moderately correctly might?
These changes are necessary in order for formatting information to be read properly in various programs, including Firefox where formatting currently isn't read at all. It makes our support for Firefox more complete, as well as giving us a framework for implementing formatting easily for other applications. If you don't want to wait for the IE support to be rewritten, you're very welcome to start the job yourself. :)
