Assistive Technology (version & build): JAWS 8.0.2137
Browser Version & Build: minefield (FF3) 39a9pre (2007-11-05:16 build)
Browser Plugins (such as MozzIE, FAE, etc.): Accessibar 0.7.7

A) it was possible to navigate the column headers using the LeftArrow and RightArrow keys. The column headers were reported thus:
- Table Date Column Header
- Table Expense Colum Header
- Table Amount Column Header
- Table Merchant Column Header
- Table Type Column Header
B) Activating the column headers resulted in a FF3-generated dialog whose contents read: "sort column on click", but had no other discernable effect.
C) From each column header, it was possible to navigate the contents of the column using the UpArrow and DownArrow keys.
D) It was possible to navigate between columns by rows using the LeftArrow and RightArrow keys.
E) When a cell received focus and the ENTER key was pressed, the value became editable. Pressing the ESCAPE key returned focus to the cell (which was no longer editable, but simply text)
F) Pressing CONTROL+ALT+M to "set focus to the menu" caused focus to be moved to the ARIA menu; full exposure of menu contents and sub-menu contents worked, but sporadically caused FF3 to crash. Although the session was successfully restored when FF3 was restarted, FF3 did not reload the Spreadsheet sample page.
