MSHTML: Hidden content inside button elements incorrectly rendered in browse mode #3776

Description

Reported by dhezl on 2014-01-13 20:50
<button> elements that contain multiple nested <div> elements for purposes of managing display state fail when read by NVDA, resulting in all button states being read in sequence. Use of display:none and aria-hidden="true" within the nested elements, while functioning properly in all other tested AT (JAWS, VoiceOver, ChromeVox), is ignored by NVDA.

Please add support for these tags on content nested within <button> elements and other form inputs to be more inline with other AT and prevent necessitation of multiple event handlers for what should be possible to accomplish with a single page element.

Thank you!

Blocking #4250
