Would it be a big thing to provide a warning when a page contains
Javascript that Netsurf cannot render?
This would save my non-techie wife the frustration that a site
"doesn't work", and calling me down from upstairs to explain yet
again. (And other new users, not just a particular wife.)
Maybe a little box down in the bottom left near the "Fetching,
processing" message. Or maybe red text appended to that message.
Or even a message that comes up when she tries to click on an
inoperative button. I have no idea of the programming effort this
would entail, though I suspect any such sensitivity to particular
areas of a page would itself depend on Javascript "mouse-over".
(Iconbar says I'm using Netsurf 2.9 on OS 5.18.)
