Thanks for the very speedy explanation! But if I want others to read the
page, I need to change the name...

Done.

It's getting caught by NetSurf's ad blocking CSS.

Looks like it matches the following selector.

img[src*="/click"]

You can disable ad blocking in the preferences.

Image won't display

A very weird problem...

The page
http://stronged.torrens.org/man/modes/syntaxmodefile.html
which I am writing. It has a line
<img src="img/clicklist.png" alt="clicklist/png" width="653" height="104">
But Netsurf won't display the image. Chrome does it properly.

But http://stronged.torrens.org/man/modes/img/clicklist.png
displays the image!

I am baffled.

FWIW Netsurf fails to verify the authenticity of an SSL certificate on that
site. Old Netsurf's could fail on certificate issues. Netsurf 4135 was good
here and proceded to the the site. (It's probably not that but just in case
...)

Re: [Rpcemu] RPCEmu 0.9.0 — Networking issues

Peter,

I had set these values—host name to 'HPLaptop' (without the quotes) and domain to 'domain' (ditto) so I wonder if it does make a difference what values are given; what did you use?

Also, in my case the laptop is connected via wi-fi not Ethernet. Don't know whether that matters.

Finally, I found that I could enter (for example) www.marutan.net into the hosts file on RISC OS; this let "ping www.marutan.net" work correctly but I couldn't use Netsurf to display the site (it hung, causing RO to hang as well).

Make sure you have a value in "Host name" and "Local domain", they can
be anything you like, and reboot. If not set to something then
namelookups fail in the manner you describe even if the "Primary name
server" value is set correctly.

Re: Inquiries About The LibDom Library

That's an interesting goal, and we'd be pleased to have you contribute
usefully.

libdom is currently in a bit of a mess to be honest. We wrote it initially to
levels 1 and 2 of DOM and some of 3 of HTML. Then it sat quietly for a while
before we started adding support for HTML5's DOM behaviours.

We don't have an "in charge" person because we're a collaborative team with
not-enough time on our hands :-) I'd say that John-Mark (jmb) knows the most
about the core of libdom, but I have been doing quite a bit of the recent
updates to it.

If you want to contribute to libdom in a way which will be useful for JS
support going into the future, then the first thing we need to do is to
implement and complete the core forms behaviours into libdom so that we can
migrate NetSurf away from its current monstrous forms code.

You can see some of what needs to be done if you look at recent(ish) developer
weekend notes, particularly the notes I made last September:
http://wiki.netsurf-browser.org/developer-weekend/sep-2017/#newapproach

Good luck, and please do feel free to pop up on our IRC channel to chat.
