Rendering and JS seems to work fine. GUI actions work fine, all the windows (history, cookies, bookmarks, browser) show up and do their job.

Re: JavaScript enabled builds for Atari
Hello, enabling JS for the atari builds was great :-) Attached is a screenshot of another testpage from the NetSurf JS Testsuite. Things like works fine. document.getElementById() works, also document.write() works, at least when called during the rendering phase. The JS Prime-Test page took 160 sec. to load here, which is expected by me. document.getElementById('xyz').innerHTML = "New Content"; - does nothing. document.getElementById('textarea').value = "New Content"; - does set the correct value, but the GUI is not refreshed. If that would work, NetSurf would be able to provide some kind of JS-Calculator, using the textarea as the display... I can confirm that the ASCII-fractal is rendering fine, took 8.6 sec with m68k-aranym (Clocking: 300Mhz). Very promising, looking forward for some possibility to redraw the page/HTML Elements :-) Greets, Ole Am Montag, den 25.01.2016, 21:12 + schrieb Peter Slegg: > >Date: Sun, 24 Jan 2016 09:53:46 + > >From: Michael Drake > >Subject: Re: JavaScript enabled builds for Atari > >To: netsurf-users@netsurf-browser.org > > > > > > > >On 23/01/16 23:06, Peter Slegg wrote: > > > >> Using Netsurf JS today it has crashed a few times. > >> It isn't as stable as the last non-JS versions. > > > >How about when you use it with "enable_javascript:0"? > > > >Michael Drake http://www.netsurf-browser.org/ > > With JS disabled it seems to be as stable as normal, no crashes > since disabling JS yesterday and using JS to visit 20-30 pages. > > Is there a JS test page that can be used to check simple JS features ? > > Regards, > > Peter > > > > > >

Can someone please give me a hint how to fix this ? Did you already to try to run the framebuffer version under X11? the libnsfb can be compiled with several backends... SDL is one of them. When the build system does not detect SDL correctly (and you do not configure it manually somehow...), it probably just skips the build of the SDL backend. Maybe you have luck and the X11 backend was put into your build of libnsfb. Otherwise, make sure that libnsfb is compiled with SDL backend. I once had an problem with that...: libnsfb make use of some gcc feature (a ctor function for libraries..., something like that) which was unsupported by the GCC cross compiler that I used: SDL was never registered as valid backend when libnsfb was loaded and always reported that the SDL backend is not available... I had to manually call the registration of the backend at application startup time. But I think this was a very rare problem, I guess the buildsystem did not find your installation of SDL development files. Greets, Ole

Re: CSS Base

These files are loaded correctly, I had a look at the debug log. I suspect the Messages file isn't up to date. Peter, did you also update the Messages file? When you updated the Messages file, and still get the CSSBase error, the archived Messages file inside the atari autobuild is erroneous. However, CSSBase stands for the well known error "Base stylesheet failed to load".

You can probably adjust the path directly in this file: http://git.netsurf-browser.org/netsurf.git/tree/framebuffer/Makefile.target ...but also have an look at Makefile.config in the root of your netsurf source tree! Your build environment is broken when it uses the wrong pkg-config installation (directory). In the end, that means netsurf-buildsystem will not use the correct libs. You may want to use hardcoded lib path in the Makefile.target file, as long as you don't want to fix your build env. You can also enable verbose compiling at: http://git.netsurf-browser.org/netsurf.git/tree/Makefile#n134 http://git.netsurf-browser.org/netsurf.git/tree/Makefile#n135 (comment the lines). Then you can copy the erroneous linker statement, try to fix it, paste it to the console again, and execute again. Maybe freetype uses a special pkg-config script called "freetype2-config" or such... (same may applies to other packages...).

Thank's for your continues tests with the latest builds. I will forward this discussion to the netsurf user list. Some "lags" where always present, and I don't know what it is. It happens every now and then - especially on some pages. So it is more or less reproducible. However. Because people complained, I have set the GUI priority to "Low" again. That means the Browser is less responsive, less time is spent on checking User Interactions. That gives a bit more time for rendering. But the user can modify this setting now. Go into the Choices menu and select some value for "GUI timeout" - that's the timeout value passed to evnt_multi. Selest "10" and see if it makes the GUI more responsive, as example: for clicking scroll button. Btw. since libdom is used (2.9 used libxml) css matching got slower. Maybe that's the speed issue that was recognized a few days ago. Hower, libdom is used since several month now So that's nothing new ;) Also make sure to unzip the whole archive, many things where modified. Greets, Ole --

Peter, is it as slow on your Milan? Is it worse compared to previous netsurf versions? I changed a time setting to improve GUI responsiveness. I would inspect MiNTLibs malloc() implementation to optimize such pages. Maybe someone is able to trace netsurf performance of the malloc() call behaviour with hatari emulator?

Is this typical or do you think there is something wrong? Hello, can you please test with an blank or at least simple *local* webpage? I believe it's about the network layer within netsurf or your network might be slow. AFAIK mozilla etc. load a local page at startup - and even if it is remote - it's probably cached. Netsurf has no disk cache yet. Please test it and tell us the results, thanks :) ! Greets, Ole
Re: Deleting subset of cookies
Hello, Am Sonntag, den 10.06.2012, 12:56 +0200 schrieb Harriet Bazley : http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3324329&group_id=51719&atid=464312 have to go through the process of opening the log-in page and then selecting and deleting the site-specific cookies in order to be able to view the members-only http://www.ravelry.com - is there a way of automating this process (i.e. selecting and deleting a subset of the cookies file)? I'm not sure if this is an real option, especially when you want to do it regularly But I expect the NetSurf cookies file to be in netscape format, which means you can find the lines which contains the domain entries that you want to find... and then just delete those lines with an editor. Not very comfortable... That's true. Greets, m
Re: netsurf-sdl on Windows?
Am Montag, den 07.05.2012, 15:32 +0200 schrieb LM : Hello, Tried out netsurf-sdl on Debian and was attempting to figure out if something similar could be built on Windows. I invoked the make file with: make target=windows That's wrong. The framebuffer isn't OS specific, you still have to build it this way: make TARGET=framebuffer the "make TARGET=windows" will attempt to build the native windows executable. Would be good if you could get both builds to work under windows. :) The framebuffer library "libnsfb" requires X11 libraries... I once submitted a patch to the list that disables specific libnsfb backends. Just remove the X and maybe other not-so-important dependencies from the libnsfb makefiles and you should be able to compile the lib. After you have installed libnsfb, you should be able to link framebuffer-sdl for windows. Greets, Ole
