Style sheets
Reloading a document does not appear to re-load the style-sheet. Is this intentional, an oversight or a bug? BTW: the work that is being done is impressive. Especially as it's a task which can never be finished. Thanks to all involved. -- Richard Torrens. http://www.Torrens.org.uk for genealogy, natural history, wild food, walks, cats and more!

Presumably, at a certain point, these will fail due to incompatibility with the existing RO front end, but when? For the record, I'm running r10528 at the moment on RO 5.16 (Iyonix), which seems to work fine. And I'm running r10550 on 5.16, ditto.

Can people who keep saying this please stop saying it until we say it. You did say it. OK, the word 'stable' was not used, but implied: see TIB article 'Last RISC OS version of NetSurf announced', dated 14 Jan 2010: Team spokesman Michael Drake said earlier today: NetSurf 2.5 is likely to be the last release for RISC OS. It is unlikely that RISC OS development builds will function for much longer after this, either. In the context of that remark, I maintain that my question was a reasonable one, and appropriately phrased. That said, it is good to hear that development continues. Let's hope someone can spare the time to update the RO front end. George --

Yeah, you need to Adjust-click the reload button to reload the style sheets - found this out while messing on with the experimental version of of my site and being puzzled by the changes to the CSS not seeming to have taken effect. -- Graham Thurlwell.

It would be nice to think that people actually *read* these postings. :-) Probably part of the same syndome that causes people to not see the words written, but some invisible ones that present among the lines one has actually written.

Excellent news. Thanks for the clarification. I'm not aware that this is a clarification: it's what has been said all along, and sounded very much like what visitors to the NetSurf stand were being told at the Wakefield Show (at least from where I was standing on the day). The same caveats (and opportunities for others to help in numerous ways) still stand, too. -- Steve Fryatt - Leeds, England http://www.stevefryatt.org.uk/

You can make statements say anything you want, if you take selective bits out of context and quote them. The rest of that Iconbar article made the situation clear, although the headline was a lillte tabloid (and I pointed that out at the time). -- Steve Fryatt - Leeds, England http://www.stevefryatt.org.uk/

I continue to be amazed at the number of people who post to RO mailing lists and newsgroups, who have poor comprehension skills; i.e. they read some words and somehow extract a meaning from them that is clearly different from what was written.
