I loaded #4891 and re-tried the text-area thing I reported in this thread.
That problem too has now disappeared, though I'm not clear how they were
connected.

Thanks, Vincent.

I was using #4887 earlier today and found that none of the controls for a
text area would work (Ctrl-A, Ctrl-C, Ctrl-X etc).

Went back to my previous version, #4881, and all is well.

I was worried that these error pages might be very slow on an
Atari (68060) but they aren't.

Although "FetchErrorTitle" is a little confusing:

-
FetchErrorTitle

An error occurred when connecting to www.45jgf945hf0.omv

Couldn't resolve host name

RISC OS CI#4886 - can't type reply

Something appears to have gone wrong betweem the RISC OS CI versions 4885
and 4886. I tried typing a reply in the ROOL site, but no keyboard input
appeared. The same is true for for 4886 and 4887, but 4885 is OK for me.

Can someone else please try this and let me know if you can reproduce it
- if so, I will report it.

I did update !Boot and !System.

page refresh -- still a problem

This problem again (using Netsurf #4881 on ArmX6 OS 5.25). See threads in
this list dated 2016-may-03 (when #4088 was in use) and 2018-july-13.


Did some further updates on the Archive site today, and again came up
against the old fails-to-reload problem. None of these do the trick:
F5 or ^F5 or ^R or the buttonbar route or Adjust-click on the
buttonbar or ^buttonbar or Netsurf menu "Navigate > Reload this
page".
The old page always reappears.

Tried quitting and restarting Netsurf, still no joy.
Before anybody asks: the site does not use frames.

I guess the item will have to be cleared from my local cache. Is there a
straightforward way of doing this that I don't know about? Iconbar
"Choices > Cache" does not offer one.

Seems to me the "Reload this page" option ain't strong enuf.
