Description

The Lightbox markup declares an XHTML 1.0 name space, and prefixes all role attributes with this namespace. Here's an example:

xhtml10:role="wairole:grid"

This prefix will cause FireFox to completely ignore the role attribute, thus not exposing it to MSAA .

The solution is to remove the role prefix, like so:

role="wairole:grid"

Environments

FireFox 2.0.x on Windows
