Re: Paypal and eBay
I've now run into a similar problem with Paypal -- links from Drag N
Drop to buy magazines now run into trouble because the Paypal site now
complains about Javascript.
Does anyone have any idea how to get round it? More importantly is it
going to take long to update Netsurf to be able to cope?
thanks
Chris.

Turning JavaScript *off* seems to help - I can then access my transaction
history using the old link of
https://history.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_history , having done the
'invisible log-in', which has been an issue for a long time (it logs you in,
but appears not to have done so since it reopens the log-in screen
afterwards).
The elements that retain the cgi-bin links still seem to work;
unfortunately a lot of the internal links have been changed/redirected to
point to the new site, which seems to be entirely JS-driven and shows blank
pages. Thus I can *add* money to Paypal from my bank account
("?cmd=_flow"), but can't withdraw it
("www.paypal.com/myaccount/home/withdraw")!

Paypal and eBay
Something seems to have changed since the last time I sold an item through eBay, a few months ago -- I've never been able to create an advert with Netsurf, but I can at least watch the bidding. However, I can't seem to access the Paypal transactions at all, even using the old workaround of the 'classic' Paypal site or by using the direct transaction link from the eBay listing. I'm just getting a blank page, which makes it rather difficult to print off shipping labels and very difficult to know what my current balance is! Has something changed recently? -- Harriet Bazley == Loyaulte me lie == Hypocrisy is underrated.
Re: Paypal - workround
HI again all Further to previous email, I've found a temporary work around -- type in (or select from the hotlist) http://www.paypal.com/myaccount/#home after logging in and reaching the screen which no longer has the links. Would be nice to know chaps if there can be a fix in the next release of Netsurf...? thanks Chris In message Cristopher Dewhurst wrote: > Hi, > There used to be an intermediate screen when logging into Paypal which > had the "One Moment" or "Please Wait" messages; on Netsurf this would > be forever but there was a series of links below the message which you > could click on to go to your account etc. which did work. > Just tried to log in to Paypal and the "One Moment" message is the > same but the links appear to have gone. > This is with JS disabled (JS enabled gives a blank white page) > If there a workround in Netsurf / possibility of tweaking Netsurf to > work? > NS 3.3 (Dev Cl#2112) > RISC OS Pi 5.21 -- Chris
Paypal
Hi, There used to be an intermediate screen when logging into Paypal which had the "One Moment" or "Please Wait" messages; on Netsurf this would be forever but there was a series of links below the message which you could click on to go to your account etc. which did work. Just tried to log in to Paypal and the "One Moment" message is the same but the links appear to have gone. This is with JS disabled (JS enabled gives a blank white page) If there a workround in Netsurf / possibility of tweaking Netsurf to work? NS 3.3 (Dev Cl#2112) RISC OS Pi 5.21 -- Chris

Well so there is, thank you Harriet!

I have only just found the start of this thread (sent to the spam folder by BT for some reason so I've only just discovered it there so sorry for the late reply. Where do you find the options to transfer to/withdraw from bank account? As far I know it's in a ribbon of options which doesn't appear in Netsurf, though does in other browsers. Is there an alternative way of getting at it? thanks :) -- Chris

(At least, that was the last one I'd downloaded) Tried again with #1635 - with JS off, I get "Sorry, an error occurred after you clicked the last link "If you were in the process of buying something, or sending money to family or friends, we recommend you check both your PayPal account and your email inbox for a transaction confirmation after 30 minutes."

You don't say which version of NetSurf you're testing. Anyway, try #1635, which has a SELECT element bug fix. -- Michael Drake (tlsa) http://www.netsurf-browser.org/
Paypal bank transfer
I can't seem to withdraw money to my bank account from Paypal using Netsurf any more (it just gives a page saying there may have been an error) -- is it a temporary glitch or have they introduced a JavaScripty dependency since I last withdrew money in October? -- Harriet Bazley == Loyaulte me lie == He that would govern others, first should be master of himself.

Dev Cl #1298. Having JS > on just gives a blank page.) I have found similar behaviour on several websites. I suspect it means that the facilities are provided by JS functions that NS doesn't yet support (hence the blank page) but that when the website detects the absence of JS it provides non-JS alternative versions.

Paypal Order status/Actions
Hi all, In My Account on Paypal in the Order status/Actions column there are (for items sold): Print postage label, Add tracking info, Mark as sent, Issue refund. (This is with Netsurf and Javascript disabled. Dev Cl #1298. Having JS on just gives a blank page.) Now, the postage label option I wouldn't use but I *do* use the Mark as sent option. Is this Javascript-specific, since there is a button underneath called "Go"? If so just wondered how easy or hard is it to implement ? thanks, Chris. -- Christopher Dewhurst

eBay and PayPal
I thought it had been suggested that NS doesn't cope with eBay and PayPal? I've just bought a cable this evening, on an eBay Buy Now, using nothing but NetSurf r9725. The only thing that didn't work was the link from the eBay item to PayPal. I was worried it was all going to fall over here, but I went to My eBay, saw the item there still awaiting payment, and was transferred successfully to PayPal from there. I paid, the transaction went through, and I've received all the expected confirmation e-mails. All this, despite red warnings on both sites - especially PayPal - that JavaScript and cookies must be enabled in order for the site to work. Good work, lads! Dave
Netsurf not working with PayPal
Hi, Netsurf does not work with Paypal checkout. Using build r9601 Steps to reproduce issue: - Visit http://www.e-junkie.com/43789 Choose any item to purchase Add to Cart Click the PayPal button to Checkout Browser is redirected to PayPal At this point the purchase process fails and PayPal generates an error Across top of page it states Javascript or Cookies maybe required. I have tested the process using Firefox on Windows with both Javascript and Java switched off. No problem. Same site works fine under Firefox for RISC OS. Site also does not work in Oregano2. Different error. Says an old version of the page was requested. Any ideas anyone? Regards -- Paul Stewart - Far Bletchley, Milton Keynes, England. (msn:paulstew...@phawfaux.co.uk)
Paying with paypal
Hi I can use paypal to pay for ebay items if I use Netsurf 1 (an old copy), but it doesn't work if I try it with the current version (from riscpkg). (On the current version I don't land on the correct page, as though it's corrupting the url it's requesting.) Does anyone else have the same problem? RO5.11 -- Jess http://jess.itworkshop-nexus.net
