Infinite hourglass when dragging an internal vertical scroll bar
I've just raised bug report 3397644. On the BBC News and ROOL web sites, some pages had an internal vertical scroll bar. In each case, when I dragged the bar, NS put up an hourglass that didn't go away in any reasonable time. I had to stop NS with Alt-Break. r12663, Iyonix, 512 MiB. Dave

I won't be able to check that out until I'm back home tonight, but here's a URL: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-africa-14610722 If you're registered on the ROOL site, you can attempt to reply to any posting, and simply write enough lines (can be one letter per line, I think) that the writable window gains a scroll bar. I also noticed that clicking the arrows moves by at least a window-full, so it isn't possible to see or read all the content of a window. I'll put in a separate bug report on that one if you want and if it's still the same. Dave

But there is still a problem with the amount by which a click on the arrows scrolls. On the BBC News website for Libya Live, a click on the arrows top and bottom of the scroll bars moves the window contents by more than the height of the window - not just one line, or anything remotely near it - whereas a click above or below the slug moves the contents exactly the height of the window. Experimenting briefly with a scrolling window from the ROOL site, it appears that when the contents of the window are not much bigger than the window, the amount by which an arrow click moves is about right; but, the bigger the contents, the bigger the step by which the contents are moved. Do you want me to raise another bug report for that? Dave

Missed that one, so trying with r12670... A brief check on http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-africa-14610722 looks perfect. Many thanks! And another opportunity to repeat my thanks to all the NetSurf team for all your ongoing hard work. Dave
