Bug 65416 – Using Voiceover in WebKit, and bringing up rotor, Item Chooser, and/or navigate using single-letter navigation results in very poor performance, focus lost,not all items being displayed, and requiring multiple presses of single-letter nav.

• Status: RESOLVED
• Resolution: LATER

Web rotor: will not always display all HTML elements, requires closing, moving around page, and bringing up web rotor again; item chooser is missing a lot of items; single-letter navigation if pressed quickly requires two presses to go to next item; and when working in WebKit, it's very slow.

Can you include some URLs where items are missing from the item chooser

When you say "and when working in WebKit, it's very slow"

what does this mean? Does it mean navigation is slow? searching is slow? typing feedback is slow? loading a page is slow?

I've filed rdar://9896351. 

All of these are VoiceOver issues and can't be fixed in webkit... hence I'll close this bug.

Thanks for filing radar. It's much appreciate. Issues are new to OS x Lion VoiceOver.

VoiceOVer quickly and accurate reads all the headings.  
VO-CMD-SHIFT-H to navigate back through the headings, where it will read all heading quickly and accurate. 
Actual: 
H rapidly through headings, where VoiceOver will lag, skip headings, and require several presses.
