However, lots of improvements have been made with Orca and Firefox 3, and it's actually quite usable now. You can download the latest build of Firefox 3 from http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/latest-trunk/ Once you've done that, you'll need to add a couple of lines to your /.orca/user-settings.py or /.orca/orca-customizations.py to make things work as they should. import orca.Gecko orca.Gecko.controlCaretNavigation = True This is definitely worth checking out! There are still some bugs, but browsing is a far more pleasant experience than it was before.
