[Netsurf-develop] URL completion, IEURL files, themes
by James Bursa
Here's a summary of recent changes to NetSurf:
* URL completion - as you type an address, NetSurf will show a list of
similar addresses that you have visited in the past (Richard Wilson)
* Fix for URL corruption bug with local files
* "IEURL" file support - this is the format used by IE for bookmarks; use
filetype 1BA (James Bursa)
* Various bug fixes (plugins, GIF, input focus, etc.)
Please test these changes and report bugs here.
There are now five themes available. Thanks to all the authors and porters!
Themes are available from http://netsurf.sourceforge.net/themes/ .
The download page has moved to the SourceForge site,
http://netsurf.sourceforge.net/ .

[Netsurf-develop] Auto-complete feature
by Stuart Halliday
Just like to say how much I enjoy using Netsurf with its new Auto URL
complete feature. It really works a treat. Well done guys, thanks for your
hard work!
:-)
Any plans to do something similar for the text fields in a web page?
I have to re-enter my Yahoo and ebay password all the time.... ;-)

[Netsurf-develop] Overlap of Graphics onto Text
by Bryn Evans
In todays Register (9th Feb) there are three articles
in which there is a picture on the left, surrounded by
text. In each case the picture overlaps and obscures the
first character of the text down the right hand side
of the picture.
This also happens on other sites.
The articles I was looking at were - Mini Solar System,
the Granny mobile 'phone and Jupiter sings the Blues.
Would it be possible to sort this soonish ?

[Netsurf-develop] Mangled web site
by Stuart Halliday
http://freshaquarium.about.com/
This is one of my favourite Aquarium web sites.
Whilst the nav panel is to the left, the content is at the very bottom and
there appears to be some html code appearing on the page.
Also text looks a bit odd.
Several incidents of the single quote character being replaced by '?'.
So I get 'It?s' instead of 'It's'.
I have ufont enabled.
