Search oddity on r13075 (plus at least 1 version prior)
Hi When I try and search for text on a web page, the dialogue box accepts the first letter and then disappears are searches for just that letter. Does anyone else have this issue? (Iyonix on both 5.16 and 5.17) It works correctly on the default homepage. On the positive side, I successfully did my voter registration online with it. -- Jess

When I try and search for text on a web page, the dialogue box accepts the first letter and then disappears are searches for just that letter. Exactly the same behaviour here, r13078. Does anyone else have this issue? (Iyonix on both 5.16 and 5.17) 4.02 It works correctly on the default homepage. Not here.

That happens here with r13078 and RISC OS 5.16. Possible hint (or possibly displaying my ignorance as usual). All the test builds between 13071 and 13078 seem to be Amiga-specific, so I haven't downloaded them. However, 13077 says Disable Sprite support - DataTypes can't handle these, so could that be fouling something up for RISC OS?

It actually says: Disable Sprite support - DataTypes can handle these. which is rather different! Sprites still load. John

It actually says: Disable Sprite support - DataTypes can handle these. which is rather different! Yep, it's an Amiga-specific build change affecting the non-RISC OS Sprite loader. There is no impact on RISC OS whatsoever. Sprites still load. They do on the Amiga build too, I've just switched over to using the fallback decoder (DataTypes). For those who are interested, DataTypes are an OS plug-in system for various filetypes - the Sprite DataType uses the same base code as NetSurf's non-RISC OS built-in support. Basically I'm saving a few kilobytes by taking it out of the main executable, as it is not something which is commonly used here. Chris
