Comments and the JS engine

Netsurf's javascript engine seems to choke on this:

I'm pretty sure that <!-- is meant to be treated as meaning the same thing as // in the sense that it represents the start of a single line comment.

I've just discovered that NetSurf 3.6 was released on 2016 November 19
(8 days ago as I type this). It renders OK in 3.6 too.

Yes, the problem was accessing Bernard's front page, not his
networking one. The front page was badly rendered, but in only some
versions of the OS. A work-round has been found, but the bug report is
still active.

It is OK here with OS5.23 (06-Jun-16) on a Titanium.

OTOH it fails on the Iyonix with both 5.22 13-Apr-15 and 5.23 26-Nov-16.

Ahh, yes. That filename wasn't obvious till hindsight.

And now that I look at the directory with Full Info and date order,
behold the three files Hotlist, URL and Cookies at the top of the
list, stamped with the exact time I shut down last night.

I'll put in a formal feature suggestion (via Sourceforge?) that
additions to Hotlist ought to save themselves immediately (or the user
being given a chance to save them manually, at least).

I can't be the only Netsurf user who has ever lost stuff like this
because of the machine losing power or freezing, and Netsurf not
having the chance to quit correctly.

This is a particular problem for BookMaker.

If the user adds any pages to the hotlist, BookMaker registers that the
hotlist has changed, and the "Save" button on the toolbar becomes
active. But if you save the hotlilst and then quit Netsurf, Netsurf
very kindly overwrites the version you've saved from BookMaker with its
own internal copy. This got so frustrating that now BookMaker won't let
you save a Netsurf hotlist if Netsurf is still running.

This does have one advantage - if/when Netsurf crashes, you can then
save the (updated) hotlist from BookMaker.

Eventually, I plan to add a patch to Netsurf, so that it checks on exit
for the use of a foreign hotlist manager, and avoid saving the hotlist
if one is in use. It's a bit daunting, as I'm going to have to start
from building a GCC environment on a virtual machine.

An attempt to avoid constant unpredictable disc accesses, I assume, and it's
not a problem until the program crashes, but it would be nice at least if
editing the hotlist physically updated the relevant file - it's not
something that happens all that often, unlike opening new pages, and unlike
in other programs there's no way to 'save your work' manually. It's a bit
counter-intuitive that the only way to ensure that changes to the program

On quitting, same as its cookies. So if you want to do different user
stuff, NetSurf has to be quitted before changing the Choices location.

I do this to access my wife's FaceBook and GMail - with her permission, of
course. on a machine I can do something sensible with the data on! Things
like save out pictures full size, print off tickets etcetera.

For simplicity I have separate complete Choices files and a change-user
script which checks if NS is running and stops to warn me if it is.
Quitting NS automatically seemed a bit like overkill - it helps to remember
what's going on if you have to do it yourself!

history and hotlist not saved; CSS site

Does Netsurf not save its hotlist and history till the user quits the
program?

Last night I was looking for tips on how to use CSS for something on
my website, came across a wonderful site and immediately added it to
my Netsurf hotlist. An hour later, some other application froze and
the computer had to be rebooted.

Today I wanted to return to that site about CSS, but there was no
record of it in my hotlist. Nor in my history. Tried all sorts of
searches via Google and Duckduck -- no luck. Bereft.

Is there any way to make Netsurf save history and hotlist during a
session? Or am I misunderstanding something?


As for the site I lost, maybe somebody else knows it and could point
me in the right direction.
- Exceptionally clean design. The bits of code within sentences were
presented with a grey background.
- Fine use of language, not cutesy or nerdy or commercial.
- It had a surprisingly nifty name, one syllable I think, almost in
the league of web.com or code.com -- so simple it made me wonder that
the writers found it still available.
- Further surprise when I got to a deeper page: it was a UK company,
despite the ".com" domain, located somewhere like Shoreditch or
Marylebone.

Stop press: Found it! It's html.com

Ah - I have had that bug, and I thought it was something wrong with my
monitor definition file. I had not connected it to the mouse following code.

I hope this can be fixed! This was the bug I was trying to remember when I
spoke to Matthew Howkins briefly at the London Show. On my previous laptop,
which must have had a version of RPCEmu without that bug, I used full screen
mode most of the time, as in the windowed environment you cannot pull the
mouse down to the bottom of the screen to bring the iconbar to the front. (I
realise you can press Shift-F12 but it doesn't come naturally.)

[Rpcemu] Full screen mode bug and other things

Bug
When going from windowed to full screen mode, rpcemu hangs.

The problem is linked to "follow host mouse".

If you deactivate it while switching, all works OK.

Could someone compiled rpcemu with a "disable follow host mouse", "enable follow host mouse" around the code that is fired when switching?

Bug

Menu in full screen mode is on top of desktop, and not reachable anyway.

Could we simply hide it in full screen mode (as we have it in windowed mode)?

Enhancement

An autoquit mode would be cool, to quit rpcemu when RISC OS is stopped.

Enhancement

A SWI to get size of window (or screen) to adapt RISC OS to it with anymode.

Would be cool for full screen mode, or for windowed mode, if the window can be resized.

Other enhancements?

Re: [Rpcemu] Internet difficulties

Networking is really not easy on rpcemu.

A user mode Internet podule would be fantastic for non server apps.

I could even pay (quite a lot) for a bounty around this.

I could say the same for callwin32.

Hello there,

    A few months ago I was able to connect to the internet from rpcemu quite happily. Since then I have upgraded from 8.14 to 8.15 rpcemu, to Mint 18 from 17.3, and OS5 from 5.21 to 5.23. On previous upgrades all has gone well, but I must have lost something along the way, as I cannot now connect at all.

    I have tried to reconfigure the internet  as before, using the Networking guide, but when I get to the  "interfaces" window, all the buttons and windows are blanked out, so cannot be configured. If I then go on to the end of the process, I get the message "you have not configured the internet connection".

    I have reloaded hard-disk4, but that has not helped. I have tried going back to previous versions of OS5 and rpcemu, but no joy. Any help gratefully received.

[Rpcemu] Internet difficulties

Hello there,

A few months ago I was able to connect to the internet from rpcemu
quite happily. Since then I have upgraded from 8.14 to 8.15 rpcemu, to
Mint 18 from 17.3, and OS5 from 5.21 to 5.23. On previous upgrades all
has gone well, but I must have lost something along the way, as I cannot
now connect at all.

I have tried to reconfigure the internet as before, using the
Networking guide, but when I get to the "interfaces" window, all the
buttons and windows are blanked out, so cannot be configured. If I then
go on to the end of the process, I get the message "you have not
configured the internet connection".

I have reloaded hard-disk4, but that has not helped. I have tried
going back to previous versions of OS5 and rpcemu, but no joy. Any help
gratefully received.

One of the most annoying aspects of RISC OS. I can put up with not
having good fast image processing software, even up to date
illustration software but I can't do without a decent Javascript
browser.

Thoroughly frustrated and I'm not blaming the NetSurf team for this as
they can only spend limited time and resources on development. NetSurf
is actually a very competent browser for speed with reasonable
reliability but because of this fundamental issue it is rapidly
becoming unusable.

The Co-operative Bank

After many years of simple and effective access using Netsurf, today
it appears that the Co-op Bank has decided to insist on client-side
code for which Netsurf's minimal Javascript support is inadequate.

It is a bug in Mailman's archive tool where it shows base64'd content for some reason.
