[NFBCS] Accessibee doesn't work well with Firefox

More and more I run into websites with "accessibility" provided by
Accessibee.  They tell me to turn on screen reader mode by hitting alt-1. 

I am finding that those sites don't work well with Firefox, regardless of
whether screen reader mode is on or not.  Yesterday, I was trying to add
something to my cart, and couldn't do it in or out of screen reader mode.
Today, I was filling out a form and it skipped required fields in screen
reader mode.  

Switching to Chrome seems to solve the problem; at least it did for both the
websites that didn't work with Firefox.  

I know this is crazy talk, but, if a website is supposed to be accessible,
it ought to be accessible with all 3 major browsers.  Imagine that.
