Details

Test case:
<body>
  <img src="picture.png" alt="the image" longdesc="  pass.html  ">
</body>

Steps to reproduce:
1. View test case in Accerciser
2. In Accerciser's tree of accessible objects, select the accessible image
3. In Accerciser's iPython console, type acc.queryAction().getName(0)

Results:
36.0a1 (2014-11-05) and earlier:
In [1]: acc.queryAction().getName(0)
Out[1]: 'showlongdesc'

The 11-06 build, both debug and release, crash for me upon launch.

36.0a1 (2014-11-07) - Present nightly:
In [1]: acc.queryAction().getName(0)
NotImplementedError

Note that in all cases, you can still right-click on the image and choose "View Description" from the resulting context menu. So Firefox knows there's a longdesc there. It's just the AtkAction implementation which seems to be broken, and only if the spaces are present in the longdesc value.
Hello,

What should we see or not with orca? I don't manage to find the image in accerciser's tree.

Regards,
Severity: normal → S3
