With https://httpbin.org/basic-auth/foo/bar you can adjust the "correct" credentials by altering the URL.

Michael Drake wrote on 15 Aug: > Please try entering the incorrect credentials, the correct > credentials, and canceling the login, by closing the login window. Problem arises in testing this: After a successful login, Netsurf will return to the site without asking again for credentials. How do we make it forget so that we can try again to see what happens with bogus credentials? (Of course no problem if I had more carefully read Michael's instruction that said to try with incorrect credentials *first*.) -- Jim Nagelwww.archivemag.co.uk

Using newly installed #4405 here on ArmX6 with Ro5.25. All the above tests (in that order!) work OK. Have always thought, though, that it'd be nicer if Netsurf gave some message when a login is unsuccessful, rather than just repeat the identical dialogue, which the user can feel is an infinite loop. Some months ago I reported a site that asked for ONLY a password, WITHOUT a username. Netsurf failed but other browsers coped, giving a reduced dialogue box. (That site, for a wedding now past, now gives only an "under construction" page, but other examples might exist at www.squarespace.com where it was hosted.) Dunno if Netsurf's revised code would now cope with this unusual situation. -- Jim Nagelwww.archivemag.co.uk

Hello, Could people please test build #4403 or later? (Or build from latest master, if you compile from source.) https://ci.netsurf-browser.org/builds/ We are close to making a release, and would like to check that nothing is broken. I am particularly interested to hear from anyone who can run the following platforms: - Amiga - Atari - Haiku - RISC OS - Windows We have just changed the way that HTTP authentication works, so I would be grateful if people could check that anything that requires an HTTP basic auth login still works with the latest build. If you don't know any sites which use HTTP authentication, you can use: https://httpbin.org/basic-auth/foo/bar (Where "foo" is the username, and "bar" is the password, and you can change the "correct" username and password by changing the URL.) However, testing with real-world sites is better. Please try entering the incorrect credentials, the correct credentials, and canceling the login, by closing the login window. Note: the Windows build doesn't yet support HTTP auth, so for that platform, I'm just looking for a general indication of whether the browser functions. Cheers, -- Michael Drake http://www.netsurf-browser.org/
