Yes, I have seen this for a while now. An annoying little trait.
It was suggested that switching off JS might help. It doesn't or at
best only marginally. (Currently Netsurf v1930, JS disabled). My ISP is
demon but I doubt this is the problem.

I was experiencing it yesterday with 1929/1930, JS disabled. Plusnet.

Thought it was just me!

Google hanging

Of recent weeks I've increasingly found that Google searches are not
rendering in Netsurf, especially when you try to view a second or
subsequent page of search results: the window just hangs there with the
progress indicator moving instead of the usual almost instant return.
Clicking on the same link again to force another fetch seems to be the
only way to get the results.

Is anyone else seeing this, or is it my ISP?

(Netsurf v1932, JS disabled)

It seems the problem was that the conversion to UTF-16 was randomly
inserting a BOM at the start of the string. When it was present, the
string characters were all pushed along by one (and probably never
checked the last character), and the first character was always size
0.

The extra character must have affected the number of characters
NetSurf thought it could fit in the space, even though it was zero
width. Anyway, I'm confident this is fixed now.
