Thetrainline.com crashes CI #744

2012-12-18 Thread george greenfield
Made three consecutive attempts to access Thetrainline.com using NS CI 
#744 with javascript enabled, each resulting in a NS crash and exit. 
Attempting to access the bug tracker and file a bug report crashed 
#744 again! Back to 2.9 for the bug report

System details: RPCEmu089/402 Recompiler mode with 256MB running on 
Win7 (64-bit).

I found that disabling Javascript on 744 enabled me to submit my
bug report (with file), which is easier than uninstalling etc.

The quick smoke tests I've done with 744 with JS disabled don't show
any worse stability than versions prior to JS.

There are also non-JS CI builds, if you prefer.

 The following bytes were arranged on 16 Dec 2012 by Gavin Wraith :
 
  With NetSurf #739. If I browse
  http://www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/text?doc=Perseus%3Atext%3A1999.01.0173%3Atext%3DSym.
  it displays OK. If I save or do a full save of the page, and then browse
  the resulting local page the Greek text displays as garbage. Why is there
  a difference?
 
 This question's come up before.  It's probably because, when you fetch
 the file over HTTP, the server knows it's in UTF-8 and tells NetSurf so,
 but when you load a local file, RISC OS doesn't tell NetSurf what
 encoding it's in and so NetSurf is reduced to guesswork.  Presumably
 whatever encoding it defaults to is not the correct one in your case.

Thanks. I will have a look at the header and if necessary stick in the
right cantrap.

Don't get me wrong: I intended no criticism of JS-enabled NetSurf, in 
fact I think it's splendid, and to be supported in every way, 
including the submission of bug reports where appropriate. It was just 
a bit ironic that the bug tracker itself was amongst the casualties!
