Using the Orca screen reader on Linux with Firefox, the login page works 
okay. However, I can only find the entry fields with the tab key. They 
do not show up when using the arrow keys to navigate. Is this a pop-out 
form? Meaning: Is the form only displayed when the mouse pointer is 
directly over the form area after clicking the link?

@Buddy: Did you try routing the mouse pointer to your Voiceover cursor, 
then clicking with your mouse/trackpad?


73,
