NVDA announces frame in Internet Explorer, but IFrame in Mozilla Firefox. Is this an error on NVDAs part? Can the two be aligned to say the same thing when frames are encountered?

A good example is on
http://www.freedomscientific.com/Training/Surfs-Up/Frame-Example.htm
Try it in multiple browsers and see the difference.

Here's what needs to be done here:

  1. Change the role for frames in IE to ROLE_INTERNALFRAME.
  2. Change the label for ROLE_INTERNALFRAME to "frame", since "IFrame" probably doesn't make a huge amount of sense to users.

Fixes #6047
In IE IFrames were being reported as "frame" and in Chrome as "IFrame".
Since "frame" is a more user friendly name, now both browsers report as
"frame".

The way IFrames are reported has been made more consistent accross browsers. IFrames are now reported as "frame" in Firefox. (Issue #6047)

Oops. There is a spelling error in the English documentation. Across only has one 'c'.
