position:fixed works only as position:absolute

Hi NetSurf users and developers!

I'm use a last NS build (from git) on Linux Mint 20.3 x64.

If I try to use css property position:fixed; it position element
correctly on page, but it scrolls with content, as if it is a
display:absolute;

Maybe this can be easy fixed?

Thanks!

Thank you Dave and Harriet. I always assumed that it was a pun or a joke,
but now I know better.

Probably because it's not English; it's Norman French, like "Honi soit
qui mal y pense" (the motto of the Order of the Garter).

It's a personal affirmation on several levels, and a historical
allusion....

The Google thing shows...

Loyalty binds me.

Apparently the personal motto of Richard III

The former is hosted by me and Daniel at Pepperfish (along with email
and mailing lists). The CI and autobuilder is hosted by Vince in his
garage and should not really be considered as an essential service. I'm
sure it'll be back soon.

It's been down since yesterday at least.

I was rather surprised to see that netsurf-browser.org and
ci.netsurf-browser.org resolve to completely different IPv4 addresses,
but the latter is unreachable to ping4.

Same here, whole day.
I think we just have to be patient.

PS @Harriet: can you explain to a non-native speaker what "Loyaulte me
lie" means? I'm puzzled since a long long time.

ci.netsurf-browser.org down?

I've been unable to access the https://ci.netsurf-browser.org/ site
since this morning - it just times out.

I can't access my bookmarks for the Mantis bug tracker or the Netsurf
mailing list archives either, although they are nominally at different
addresses (dir.gmane.org/gmane.comp.web.netsurf.user and
bugs.netsurf-browser.org) - but may redirect to the same 'home' site?

The purpose of rules is to make you think before you break them.

The other big computed style selection optimisations were:

1. Avoiding selection altogether when we can detect that
it would result in the same computed style as a previous
element.

2. Up-front presentational hints.

Also, computed styles are now transparently interned and
ref counted now, so elements will share the same computed
styles whenever possible, reducing memory usage.

Yeah, that is "fairly old" -- it was released in 2012!

I don't believe there is anything formal, no.

I doubt stylesheet parsing is significantly faster than it used to be.
There have, however, been many improvements to the performance of style
selection in the last 10 years. You can find discussion of one of them
