[Blindmath] NVDA - chrome - gmail editor problems

[Ken Perry]

Google chrome works fine with Jaws 12 and 13, and I use it on my Mac book
pro with voice over as well.  I have not tried it with others yet.  I might
give it a shot with system access tonight.

First, I have had no success using Google Chrome under any screen reader. If

anyone has I'd be interested to hear about it. Second, when NVDA is turned 
on and you are trying to type into an edit box, you must hit space to get 
NVDA into edit mode. Otherwise it will behave similarly to what you 
described.
