|
hello every one.
as you know, i use windows xp and firefox 52 with nvda versions 2017.2 and 2017.3. my only browser is firefox and i really cant tolerate other browsers. i had issue of firefox crashes in firefox old versions with nvda. but did not observe firefox crashes at least in firefox 45! once, i could access windows seven and i tested firefox 61 the crashes returned frequently. so, i observed firefox crashes in 30 minute of using firefox! even in simple web pages like nvda user guide, and my gmail interface which is in basic html view, i had frequent crashes and firefox 61 was completely unusable for me! when testing with windows seven, i only used and tested firefox 61 with nvda 2017.2. and i did not have nvda 2017.3 on that time. i know one person who has a laptop from 2009 and for this reason, He migrated to chrome! i really wish some experts, and who use only firefox and compare versions, especially users of old laptops, help me that 1. is frequent crashing of firefox quantum with nvda is resolved or not? 2. if the issue is resolved, and mozilla released a stable version of firefox without crashes like firefox 56 and before, please give me exact version number. for example: tell me that firefox since version xxx became completely stable as it was before firefox quantum. i searched in the internet and found only this link. https://www.accessibilityoz.com/2018/11/accessibility-issues-with-firefox-quantum-and-screen-readers/ can someone please help? can i use one day firefox quantum with nvda 2017.3 without any issues? or, i should use firefox 52 forever? thanks so much every one and God bless you all! -- By God, were I given all the seven heavens with all they contain in order that I may disobey God by depriving an ant from the husk of a grain of barley, I would not do it. imam ali

the author said that: "Both NV Access and Freedom Scientific declare that NVDA (starting from version 2018.2) and JAWS (starting from version 2018) respectively are compatible with Firefox Quantum. Compatibility may be understood broadly. Yes, Firefox is again usable with screen readers, but it is still not as smooth as it was before Firefox 57. in the last week, i found informations in mozilla website that jaws should be version 2018 for compatability with firefox quantum. but did not declare specific version for nvda, and i believe that any version of nvda, (at least since 2016.4), should support firefox quantum!

But that’s no good if you are using XP which doesn’t support quantum at all in any way shape or form

First, you can't use Firefox 51 forever. Old browsers gradually work with fewer and fewer sites. Try the latest version of Firefox and see if it crashes or not on your Windows 7 system. You can try the portable version since that alters nothing on your system. You can continue to use your beloved years out of date dangerous version if you wish and evaluate the current portable version. Many people are using Firefox, the latest one, and I've seen no pattern of complaints. While I don't use firefox much, I haven't had problems with more recent versions.

Firefox is up to version 78 now. Crashes more often with JAWS 018 on my new(er) desktop than with nVDA (newest stable release) on my old(er) lenovo laptop. Never founda browser that is completely stable 100% of the time. Firefox is pretty good at recovering from most crashes, though. Not sure how much the screen-reader influences the browser crashing but, I am not sure Freedom Scientific cares that much about Firefox support. Anyway, you'll need to stop using XP to use Quantum I think...

Try it and see. Just because people generally report that a program doesn't crash doesn't mean you will have the same performance, because there are differences between systems, perhaps corruption, perhaps just differences. Programs may work differently even on two different computers running the same operating system and that have the same hardware. If your computer is slow and overheats, those may be indications of problems with the system that may influence the problems you are having.

And you are limiting yourself by refusing to use other browsers, such as Chrome. We don't know why you won't use other browsers. Gene

Then you need a newer more powerful computer so you can run Windows 7 or 10 or whatever you want to run. You can't run any version of Firefox later than 51.x with XP.

Screen readers and Browsers are programs that do not require much
CPU. It's not like the people here think. There are many web developers around me. They do amazing things
with Firefox and there is no crash. There are nice works for accessibility in the source of Firefox.
Maybe more than Chromium. But in reality it is not like that at
all. I generally use Intel processors. I always try Firefox when I
update or change my computer. Windows 7, 8 or 10. On 06/07/2020 02:35, Sean via groups.io

Preach it! I didn’t like it either when I had windows 7. I don’t have it on this system. I don’t intend to install it here. All the browsers like Chrome are like it. So, why would I want firefox here? I got Microsoft edge and Chrome here they are a like.

Because there are times when you can do something with Firefox you can't do with Chrome and the other browsers being discussed, Eddge, Chrome, are Chrome-based browsers. I think it is a very good idea to have a browser that isn't chrome based, even if someone uses Chrome or a Chrome based browser as their main one.

Well, I find Chrome more responsive then firefox. It could have been that the last computer I had was 7 and it was badly slowing down. I just happen to like Chrome better. I know it’s like firefox. So, I don’t really need it.

Try it and see. Just because people generally report that a program doesn't crash doesn't mean you will have the same performance, because there are differences between systems, perhaps corruption, perhaps just differences. Programs may work differently even on two different computers running the same operating system and that have the same hardware. If your computer is slow and overheats, those may be indications of problems with the system that may influence the problems you are having.
And you are limiting yourself by refusing to use other browsers, such as Chrome. We don't know why you won't use other browsers.

when i use dynamic heavy web pages with javascript, when my system has overheating issue, i face unresponsiveness of firefox, but i did not face firefox and mozilla crash report, at least since firefox 45. i really wish to know, if firefox quantum crashing with nvda is resolved, since which version of firefox exactly it works without any crashes.
