[Netsurf-develop] Another way to crash NetSurf
by Stefaan Claes
Hello,
I have found another way to crash NS: just add a few words after the URL
e.g. 'http://www.drobe.co.uk/ crash me'
It seems to confuse NetSurf ;-)
BTW: Fresco doesn't allow to enter spaces in the URL and Oregano (1) says
it cannot find the page.

[Netsurf-develop] Image support
by James Bursa
Please try the latest build at http://netsurf.strcprstskrzkrk.co.uk/.
This adds support for images in web pages, JPEGs only at the moment. There
are some problems with it at the moment:
- if a page has the same image twice, it is downloaded twice
- alt text isn't shown before the image loads or if it fails
- only JPEGs supported by the RISC OS renderer work

[Netsurf-develop] Window stuck on screen
by Andrew Duffell
I can't drag the NetSurf window off the edge of the screen for some reason,
but I can with all other windows :o
Images are looking good :) Haven't found any problems so far.

[Netsurf-develop] Tables
by Michael Drake
Hello...
I have been trying Netsurf out on some of my web pages and I have come
across a few problems.
Firstly, on http://www.smoothartist.com/cube/ the tables are all drawn
correctly in the latest version, except one cell, which appears in the
wrong place. It is the cell that contains a picture of Sonic and the text
"This page is written in valid HTML on a RISC OS computer.". This cell
should appear at the bottom right of the table, at the bottom of the 4th
column. However, in Netsurf it comes up beneath the first column, which
is used as a border.
The correct layout of the cells in this table is:
+------------------+
| |
+--+----+--+----+--+
| | | | | |
| | | | | |
| | | | | |
| | | | | |
| | | +----+ |
| | | | XX | |
| | | | | |
+--+----+--+----+--+
| |
+------------------+
but Netsurf is rendering it like this:
+------------------+
| |
+--+----+--+----+--+
| | | | | |
| | | | | |
| | | | | |
| | | | | |
| | | | | |
| | | | | |
| | | | | |
+--+
|XX|
+--+----+--+----+--+
| |
+------------------+
...where the cell containing "XX" is the one that is in the wrong place.
Also, the page contains many <center> tags but these don't seem to be
seen. Do you plan to support the <center> tag?
It would be great if the <small> tag was supported, to reduce the text
size.
Could alt text be put inside square brackets, to help people to see that
it is alt text rather then part of the main text of the page?
On http://www.smoothartist.com/reddwarf/ none of the colours are used. It
just appears as black text on a white background although all the tables
and cells have different colours. Also, on this page • is not
displayed as a bullet point. (The same happens on Google's front page.)
Finally, I have put up some alternative graphics for the CSS file type,
following monkeyson's suggestions on TIB's forums. These are located here:

Cheers,
Mike
