[snip] I've seen this intermittently on many builds as far back as I can remember but after system restart its always been OK. Does anyone have any idea what is actually going on when this happens? It doesn't seem to happen with any other application so its got to be a NetSurf issue. Any ideas about how the problem might be isolated? I just wonder if its similar to a DrawPlus problem I've had for years where the menu widths expand to full screen width, then if I shut down various other applications it will sometimes recover. It would suggest applications trampling on memory that doesn't belong to them. Could it be the same with this NetSurf issue? -- Mike Hobbs

It does not appear to be a case of, for some reason, white characters being entered on a white ground, as if you do enter apparently invisible data and then click the find button, it behaves as though no data has been entered. Anyone else seen this? Works OK here with test build r7359 on RISC OS 5.13. With best wishes, Peter. -- Peter, \ / zfc Tm \ Prestbury, Cheltenham, Glos.

Right, well, there's no such thing as JAVA, so you'll need to get them to clarify which of Java or JavaScript they mean. If they mean JavaScript, you may be able to use Firefox under RISC OS. If they mean Java, you're very stuck; the only Java plugin for RISC OS is a decade old and terribly out of date; hardly anything runs with it. B.
