ip address funny with r10709

2010-08-23 Thread Gavin Wraith 
When I enter an ip address number, in this case www.89.238.129.34,
Netsurf r10709 says domain name www.89.238.129.34 not found.

That would be because www.89.238.129.34 is not an IP address.

Try dropping the www., which will be confusing it into thinking it
needs to do a name lookup, due to there being non-IP-address characters.
