Loads of apparently binary data displayed in the background of the
page www.raytheon.com with Netsurf 25-01-2007 00:00 on A9 (RISC OS
4.42). This binary looking data extends well beyond the foot of the
humanly understandable page.
I wonder whether it is anything to do with the Flash embedded:
<embed height="160" width="758" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"

> There's a weird display problem when trying to view www.raytheon.com
When I tried it, at first the site rendered perfectly OK, with pictures and
text, and then after several seconds, it was covered with spurious
characters. Refreshing took it back to OK for a few seconds then as
before. Nobody else seems to have spotted this.
RO5.11 (NS 3 January 07, so whatever it is has been around for a while)

It is a bit more complicated I think. On my Omega with RO 4.39 and
todays build of Netsurf the homepage of the Raytheon site displays
fine, but when I click in the top bar on either "About us" or
"Businesses" or "Strategic Business Areas" the initial display of the
page is fine and legible, but as soon as the graphical top bar is
loaded, the text changes to gibberish. The Home button or "Products
&Services" act OK though. Strange!

I tried it on TB 25/1 on my Iyonix ROS 5.11
and that works fine too.

I have just attempted to do so but I am not sure whether I was
successful. If a NetSurf developer is reading this, everything that I
put in the report is also contained in the quote above. There is
nothing else that I can add. I hope this is helpful.

Sorry James. As it happened with the first two websites that I tried
I thought it must be a general problem.
The two sites are <www.archivemag.co.uk> and <www.rural-life.org.uk>.
On first entering the sites (in a fresh window) and then clicking on
the maximise icon top-right, with the Archive site the main frame (of
three) comes up blank and with the Rural Life site the page comes up
with no scroll bars. In both cases a slight adjustment of the window
size with the bottom-right icon or a click on the refresh button
restores the correct display.
I have just tried both again this morning and it is consistent. In
fact I have just found that if I then click the maximise icon again
the same thing happens. I am using RISC OS 4.03 on a Kinetic RISC PC
(in case that may be relevant).
Thanks

[Netsurf-develop] RiscPkg instructions
by Simon Smith
The RiscPkg instructions on the Netsurf download page tell you to add
pkg http://netsurf-browser.org/builds/riscpkg/packages
to the RiscPkg sources file.
The riscos.info Wiki advocates
pkg http://www.netsurf-browser.org/builds/riscpkg/packages
so that it 'works correctly with the current version of RiscPkg'.
I had put my recent RiscPkg problems down to other causes, but I'm now
hesitant to just revert the Wiki to match the Netsurf download page.
Can the RiscPkg instructions on the Wiki and the Netsurf web page be
harmonised, please, by someone who knows for sure whether the 'www.' is
better left in or taken out again?
Thx.
