Strange graphic doodad
Need some advice please as I can't fathom it. Using Netsurf r10721 (29 Aug 2010). If you click this URL a snippet of Web page will display. http://www.triffid.co.uk/dstuff/index.htm To the left of the Captain and Admiral the word News present. This is in fact a small graphic, which in other browsers, like Oregano, Fresco and on a PC FireFox displays correctly. Download the snippet and display it locally in Netsurf, the graphic will display. http://www.triffid.co.uk/dstuff/bitof.zip Any thoughts why NS is not displaying this graphic while it display the others? Thanks Dave -- Dave Triffid

The file's address is http://www.triffid.co.uk/dstuff/newn.gif It's a JPEG but the server is telling us it's a GIF because the file has a .gif extension. So NetSurf is giving the JPEG data to its GIF handler, which fails to decode it and the alternate text is shown instead. -- Michael Drake (tlsa) http://www.netsurf-browser.org/

The original was a gif and I shoved it in Paint to modify it and obviously made a CU when I exported it. Silly me, but not the first time that's been done... Cheers Dave -- Dave Triffid

Hang resulting in 11MB logfile.
I've just filed this bug report: [quote] This is with RISC OS 5.16 and NetSurf test build r10731. Page http://www.rickstein.com/Steins-Fish-and-Chips.html loaded; hourglass activity, sometimes the main animated one and sometimes the NetSurf small one, seems to be continuous. Click on Sample eat-in menu. Nothing happens apart from more hourglass, till I get impatient. Can't now quit NetSurf except with alt-break. [unquote] The 11MB logfile zips to 377K, which is too big to upload. I think this must be due to bad site design (it works OK with Windows Firefox), but is it worth sending this logfile to one of the developers? TIA, With best wishes, Peter. -- Peter, \ / zfc Lu \ Prestbury, Cheltenham, Glos.

Well Richard, when I got back from a job, both Michael Drake and John Williams has given me the lightbulb moment, so there didn't seem any point in leaving the stuff up, so I posted my thanks to them both, and then removed the files. There wasn't much to see... ;-) But if you are really really interested, I could post you the archive, that's the only place now where the CU Jpeg/Gif is. :-/ Dave -- Dave Triffid
