Firefox 16 was released yesterday and brought initial web app support, a new developer toolbar, support for more HTML5 code, and accessibility improvements for Mac. The new developer toolbar in Firefox 16 has buttons for quick access to tools, an error count for the web console and a new command line that lets you control the tools with your keyboard. Mozilla has mentioned the support for this is ‘preliminary’ and this indicates that VoiceOver shouldn’t be expected to work perfectly with Firefox 16.
