Please remember that there is no RISC OS front end maintainer for NetSurf anymore - nobody is working on the RISC OS front end beyond making it build with core changes. If anyone wants to volunteer for this please step forward! Some people have expressed interest in the past but have either vanished or discovered they did not have the spare time they thought. B.

The only way to keep the JS setting on screen as a button is to 1. open choices 2. open content 3. minimise/put configuration on the iconbar 4. toggle JavaScript 5. click Set with Adjust 6. goto 4 -- Tim Hill Webmaster, www.timil.com websites : php : RISC OS

Actually, I may have to take that back - although it certainly worked in 4845, it eventually had a problem in 4851 - it just prints the JS to the NS window, along with the text normally displayed on the page. Neither version displays the Google Doodle wither, just a pink rectangle which is a .png file. -- Brian Howlett "There ain't half been some clever bastards" - the late Ian Dury

Sure makes one wish for that "Javasccript on/off" button on the Netsurf button bar that we've oft wished for! (Ancient Fresco had one, could pinch the icon from Fresco.) So much handier than repetitititive trips to iconbar Choices > Content > Disable Javascript > Set. Have never found a way of programming Keystroke to do this. If anyone has succeeded, please export the relevant Keystroke Selection file & share it. Or a "switch" that could be added to an URL file to set Javascript off, when relevant to that particular URL, as in this case. And thanks for looking into the problem, Daniel. -- Jim Nagelwww.archivemag.co.uk

Without JS enabled I'm not sure. With JS enabled it's a performance issue. I cannot replicate it on my laptop because it's so much faster than any RISC OS system, but I believe it'll be due to some JS trying to work stuff out and failing because it's too slow. I will attempt to root out the problem but it's quite possible I won't be able to for a week or more.

For the past few days, telling Netsurf to go to http://google.co.uk results in an endless loop and no joy. What's this all about? The Netsurf URL bar changes from what I typed to this: http://www.google.co.uk/#spf=1569197185001 The 13-digit number keeps changing, and the hourglass keeps running. With or without Javascript enabled. Was using Netsurf #4845 when this phenomenon began. Downloaded #4850 just now, but still no joy. https://duckduckgo.com/html/search continues to work with no prob. So what is Google playing at? Is a fix likely for Netsurf? -- Jim Nagelwww.archivemag.co.uk
