Second edit - aha, now that I've managed to log out of the other version
of the site, it *does* show a captcha on the mobile log-in page!   :-D

I'd better bookmark that, at least for the moment...

I've just downloaded NS 1447 but am not seeing any captcha at all on
that page.   It reads "FanFiction Login with..." followed by various
social media icons, then "or" followed by three blank text entry icons -
which, from experiment, are email-address, password and required captcha
text - followed by a "login" button.

Judging by the old version of the page, there ought to be a visible
'audio alternative' link somewhere plus, obviously, a captcha.

RO 5.19, NS 1447, js disabled - though enabling it makes no difference,
other than to cause the page to take longer to render.

Whereabouts on the page are you seeing the captcha?   Sounds as if it
may be some kind of layout issue after all... the audio link at any rate
is present in the HTML source.

Ooh, that could be handy - I've never managed to find a log-in for the
mobile site.

Edit: well, it allows you to select the different 'tabs' via a standard
pop-up menu rather than JS-driven page generation, but sadly the actual
activation button ('Go') still shows the 'button cannot be activated'
warning that indicates Javascript to be run when you click on it :-(

So it looks as if I'm still using bookmarks to access the relevant
URLs...

Harriet didn't say which version of NS she was using, and I assumed that
she was talking about a change at https://www.fanfiction.net/login.php

'As of today' there is no build of NS yet, but NetSurf-gcc-json-1447,
11-Nov-2013 14:36 also displays the captcha. For the avoidance of doubt:

The text captcha displays correctly here: RO 5.20, NS 1447, js disabled.

But that's from at least last month, and Harriet did say 'As of today'.
