Following on from someone the other day who said that NetSurf is not
displaying pages correctly, I've found another one.
http://www.drobe.co.uk/features/artifact1034.html and all the comment
disappear from 'md0u80c9's comment downwards.
Oddly, saving the source code to hard disc and then double-clicking on it,
views perfectly ok....
I'd better file a bug report. :-)

Yes, I've had that experience before with another site.

The Barclaycard site produces similar results in the page that shows
my transactions, i.e. all or lots of the headers are there, but no
transactions are visible. This one doesn't appear to show any more
when viewing the saved source, though. 124 errors from the W3C
validator... but that's common for web sites out there, and I assume
NetSurf is written to cope with loads of rubbish.
In the case of Barclaycard, filing a bug report is problematic in
that I should attach a file, but I'm not clear whether the HTML in
question would violate my privacy obligations to Barclaycard, but,
without the source, the bug report may not be useful.
The good news, of course, is that NetSurf gets into the Barclaycard
site at all.

Not here with version r4037 of 22 March :(
On https://bcol.barclaycard.co.uk/ I get
"
Barclaycard Account Services.
To access these facilities you must set your browser to accept JavaScript.
Please amend the browser settings and reload this page. "
Is there another way in that I haven't discovered, perhaps? It would be
really useful for me to be able to do this one on NetSurf.

I just checked again with 1.2 and I can still get in via
http://www.barclaycard.co.uk and then clicking on the menu items
as necessary. I've logged in, I can see a summary of my account,
but when I click "View recent transactions" I can only see the
basic page structure and left side menu, with no transactions -
the rest of the page is blank white.

Spoke - almost - too soon. I see I can now log on at
https://bcol.barclaycard.co.uk/ecom/as/doLogon.do?ID=null
which got me going: all seemed well, and I logged on very much quicker than
I had previously had to do with O2. So far so good.
But although the "Your account(s) overview" page shows data correctly, none
of the other four "View" options shows any data.
On each of "Recent transactions", "Statements", "Credit and cash
limit" and
"Online access log" options I get a page with the header details and the
options boxes down the left side, but nothing showing in the main part of
the page.
This is indeed progress. Any chance of getting this bit sorted as well?

You could edit it to remove/replace confidential information whilst
leaving the markup and css stuff in place.

Oh, absolutely. If only I could guarantee that, amongst all that
mess that they refer to as HTML, I've found everything that *they*
regard as confidential.

Is that odd? I might be wrong, but I seem to remember that when you "save
the source code" what's being saved isn't the incoming raw data stream as it
arrived from the http server, but instead some intermediate form that NS has
transformed it into. OTOH, even if that's right, maybe you would expect it
to work the same way.

Is that odd? I might be wrong, but I seem to remember that when you
"save
the source code" what's being saved isn't the incoming
raw data stream as
it arrived from the http server, but instead some intermediate form that
NS
has transformed it into. OTOH, even if that's right, maybe you

That rather depends upon how you save it. If you just save the source, then
it'll be the exact same data as sent by the server. If, however, you've
done a full save, then it won't be (as the URLs for embedded objects will
have been rewritten).
In this particular case, it's simply that the server sends a Content-Type
header containing "text/html; charset=UTF-8", and the document contains
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;
charset=ISO-8859-1">.
The HTTP header wins, but the document isn't UTF-8 encoded. In certain
circumstances, this results in the HTML parser breaking. When loaded from
disc, there's no HTTP header, so the meta charset is used.
John.
