Thank you, John-Mark; I confirm it does. A good opportunity to thank the whole NS team again, too! Dave

Is it possible that my ISP connects via a proxy, without my knowledge? Tony

Most likely because you're fetching it through a proxy server which fixes the brokenness. Certainly, there's no reason for r13077 to work any better than later versions in this respect. John-Mark.

If it's a bug, I will happily report it. The site responds with a gzip-encoded stream containing trailing garbage. This causes the HTTP library we use to complain with the message you see. r13129 contains an egregious hack around the problem which should make it work as well as can be expected. John-Mark.

However, for reasons not understood, NetSurf decided to re-scan the fonts before loading (NetSurf was not running, when I double-clicked the URL). Tony

If it's a bug, I will happily report it. I get the same message. The page has 33 validation errors, but NS should make the best of it rather than barf at it. The page renders in Oregano 1.10 though not with the intended formatting. It is a nuisance that in this situation you can't shift-drag or ctrl-drag the URL, although you can copy it to the clipboard. -- Richard Porterhttp://www.minijem.plus.com/ mailto:r...@minijem.plus.com I don't want a "user experience" - I just want stuff that works.
is this a bug or a site source error?
Please try: http://opensource.com/life/11/11/drm-graveyard-brief-history-digital-rights-management-music (I hope I've copied that out correctly; I can't seem to drag it out of NS.) I get a warning from NetSurf: "Error while processing content unencoding: invalid code lengths set" Is this a bug in NetSurf, or is it an error in the site's source code? If it's a bug, I will happily report it. Dave

Is this a bug.
Hi Folks, Can anyone confirm that there seems to be a bug in the Netsurf table handling. http://www.zen57462.zen.co.uk/test.htm The row background colour is not carried across to the last four cells of the table. -- Barry A.
