Bug 115976 – Web Inspector: AX: Console log of the Inspector does not announce output for screen readers

• Status: RESOLVED
• Resolution: FIXED
• Component: Web Inspector

[Victor Tsaran]

Currently, after typing the expressions into the "console" edit area, the results are not being read back to the screen reader user.
One approach could be to use aria-live or role=status on the most important parts of the pane. The screen reader will then read the dynamic updates automatically.
This, however, needs to be tested and refined further.

Should always use double quotes.

> +        element.setAttribute('data-labelprefix', WebInspector.UIString("Output: "));

Should always use double quotes.

Heh. This must be why there is a dedicated webkit-patch script. ;-)
