Change.org massively scaled images
Hi all Does anyone know why Netsurf scales the images on www.change.org to what seems like several thousand percent? For example on the recent petition https://www.change.org/p/new-era-should-not-become-the-end-of-an-era?utm_source= action_alertutm_medium=emailutm_campaign=192906 pixels in some of the images are about an inch square on the screen so you have to scroll over large areas to read the text. At least this is what I get on NS 3.3 Dev Cl#2419, RISC OS 5.21 Raspberry Pi, be interesting to see what happens on other platforms? thanks, -- Chris

Error message about Possible Security Violation
HI all When searching for vacancies on this website: https://bamscli.webitrent.com/bamscli_web/wrd/run/ETREC105GF.open?WVID=09873000J p (click on the search button) I get an error A possible security violation has been detected on displaying this page. Anyone know what's going on? I'll report it using the Website Feedback Form if it's not to do with Netsurf. (Feedback form *does* look like it works but haven't actually filled it out yet) thanks -- Chris

I also get said boxconvert warning using RO Pi 5.21
Not an expert in HTML but seems that a call to html-marquee in the
following extract is the offending code (I viewed the source in
Firefox):

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 ba89134854.c...@cdewhurst2010.btinternet.com Cristopher Dewhurst cdewhurst2...@btinternet.com 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.

Facebook URLs
Hi all, I use the mobile site (m.facebook.com) with Netsurf but I've never understood why links on posts such as: http://www.yorkpress.co.uk/news/11276158.Puppy_love_as_guide_dog_visit_stressed_out_university_students/ turn into something horrendously long such as: http://lm.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.yorkpress.co.uk%2Fnews%2F11276158.Puppy_love_as_guide_dogs_visit_stressed_out_university_students%2Fh=nAQFw8k0aenc=AZPXMdNOFY5jft7xFZWvoSPStvrU8djNkRBAwOKIq8doXAYlOtrL4URq2aezoNDxStaN79e3VneS85f4-L-6JTw51xN-2OHAu0rap3MdNZz-WZ3zgb6exV5wlYZX11ZMveZkJNiouE27lobN2iqq4ZGWs=1 and a subsequent blank page when you click on them in Netsurf. Above example is purely for illustration, not that I usually surf the internet for puppies or even the York press ! Is this a Netsurf peculiarity or a Facebook one? If the latter, is there a workaround? You don't seem to be able to highlight and copy just the URL without activating it. thanks Chris. --
Re: Google hanging
Hi Using Netsurf v1940, seems to be ok here (Raspberry Pi RISC OS 5.21) Maybe a temporary glitch with Google, or perhaps something fixed in NS between 1932 and 1940?

Clicking on the same link again to force another fetch seems to be the only way to get the results. Is anyone else seeing this, or is it my ISP? (Netsurf v1932, JS disabled) -- Chris
Re: Paypal bank transfer
Hello Harriet, In message 31a32dcd53.harr...@blueyonder.co.uk Harriet Bazley li...@orange.wingsandbeaks.org.uk wrote: 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? 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

See, for instance, http://www.avaaz.org/en/petition/Stand_with_the_Philippines/?blOZUcbv=31098 Similar problems here: it takes forever to load the page, clicking close on Netsurf's window causes Netsurf to die and spit out an error (can upload the Log file somewhere if needed). This is with JS on; disabling it loads the page ok and lets you type in your email address but clicking sign brings up a page claiming you haven't.
