Text box redraws
by Peter Slegg
Hi all,
I am using 2.9 on a 68060 Atari clone (Milan) and it is starting to
become my default browser.
I have noticed that when typing into a text box, Netsurf redraws all
of the text with each key press. On fast machines you probably
don't notice but it does slow things down quite a bit on the Milan.
Would it be possible to just render the latest character or the
current line ? Obviously once input reaches the right margin and the
box has to be scrolled horizontally it must redraw all the text
but that could also be made more slick by moving the text across by
more than one char, reducing redraws.
Also, after the first 5-7 characters there is a pause before any more
input is accepted. I have seen this a few times but will keep an eye
on it to see if it is a regular occurrence.
Cheers,
Peter

Chris,
Your maintaining of a chris/amiga-hubbub-lib-compat branch is driving a lot of
us crazy. Firstly because you create a bunch of commit messages for "keeping
up" with master and secondly because you managed to corrupt master with your
"compat" change.
I have resynchronised master of libdom with master of hubbub to un-do your change.
Why are you maintaining some kind of 'compat' branch at this point? We've
never made an ABI/API commitment and as such we're shouldn't be trying to
maintain "compatibility" not least of which because there's no way for a modern
libhubbub to know that you're not passing a script callback anyway so it'll
jump off into oblivion given the opportunity.
Unless you have a really *really* good reason for this, I ask that you stop
maintaining these branches because they're clearly causing you confusion at
times; and they're definitely causing us confusion/annoyance.

Right, I'm officially confused now as it definitely said I didn't have
permission ("ruleset denied access" and lots of "[rejected]" next to
the branches - but not master, curiously)
I'm on master branch and it clearly hasn't updated locally. The
website shows the diffs but the blob still contains "Disegna" instead
of "Draw", so... *shrug*

FatMessages update
by Chris Young
Hi
Samir sent through another update to the Italian strings - but I don't
have access to that area anymore to commit them.
It would be useful for me to have access to modify FatMessages as I
have all my GUI strings in there that I often need to add to or edit.
However, I'm happy to tell Samir to send translation updates to
somebody else if that needs to be more controlled.
I've attached the new file.
Regards
Chris

Access to Docs directory
by Ole
Hello there,
today I tried the windows build and updated the BUILDING-Windows doc
with latest links to the libs, (Some links were broken).
I would like to pull that change. Also I would like to update the Atari
Docs when I like to do it. So I'm requesting access right
to the netsurf.git/Docs folder. Thanks in advance.
Greets,
Ole

Forms
by Daniel Silverstone
Hi,
I spent a fairly heroic time period this weekend hacking on the various form
related elements in libdom and doing a preliminary binding to them in the
libdom_binding.c file in NetSurf.
My work on libdom is now merged to master but the NetSurf work is still sat on
dsilvers/form-work where it will remain until I have at least rudimentary
<textarea> and <select> support.
Once that is up and running, I'll look to merge back to master before
refactoring for cleanliness code-wise.
If anyone wants to play, please feel free to do so. I'm quite pleased with the
number of level1/html tests we now pass and the dsilvers/form-work branch
actually does let me do google searches from the welcome page.
