I assume you're using Firefox. I can't reproduce this as you describe. I just hear "edge of table" when trying to navigate those headers, which is still wrong.

This isn't a regression. I see the same issue in NVDA 2012.2.1.

This table is partially an ARIA grid. It looks like Firefox isn't handling it correctly, but I need to debug further. Apple are doing something really weird here.

Replying to jteh:

Yes. 17.0.

Ah. I thought this is a fixed issue that I have been having trouble for, in the last few days.

Changes:
Changed title from "Table Navigation Broken" to "Table Navigation Broken on iTunes pages in web browsers"

The situation seems to be worse now. NVDA always just reports "not in a table cell".

Apple have done something really odd here. The table is a div with role="grid", but there's actually a table inside it with role="presentation". The header row is a tr with no role attribute, but it's inside a table marked with role="presentation", so I can understand why Firefox wouldn't assign a role of row. The data rows do have role="row". They really should have role="row" on the header row. I need to hack together some test cases to confirm if this is the source of the problem. If it is, this probably needs ot be fixed by Apple.

Damn it. Forgot to refresh before commenting.

Is this still an issue? I am not having problems with table navigation using the website provided in #2823 (comment). Maybe there was some change in the website? CC @jcsteh

Works for me now too.
