Sorry, I misunderstood your comment. Having read it more carefully, I agree with you. (My NetSurf ButtonBar already has the same PageUp/Down.) Tony

I don't know about Keystroke but that's not true for Buttonbar. If a keypress is understood by an application but not in its menu, it still works. Just tested it with PageUp/Down for NetSurf and they work but are not in the menu structure. -- Tim Hill .. www.timil.com

A wee handy-feature suggestion (if it's not a lot of programming effort): A "Javascript on/off button" on the toolbar. Basically a handy shortcut to the iconbar "Choices > Content > Disable Javascript" tickbox. It would be good to have the on/off handier, because the user needs it on a "per site" basis rather than "per application". (In days of yore, Fresco had such a button, for that reason.) The presence of such a button would also make it visually obvious to the user that a Javascript-enabled version of Netsurf is in use. At present the existence of Javascript is seen only several layers down in Choices. Using build 797 at the moment, on both RiscPC 4.39 and Iyonix 5.18. -- Jim Nagelwww.archivemag.co.uk
