NS2.1 Unicode font library could not be initialized
I just tried 2.1 and can't get past the first hurdle... "Unicode font library could not be initialized..." I'm using it on Virtual RPC-SA (RO 4.02) which has been running various versions of NetSurf successfully up to 2.0 and I just rolled back to 2.0 and its fine. The only resource/module that was updated was Tinct and the new version is working fine with NS 2.0. I've tried both new and old !Unicode - no difference. -- Mike Hobbs

Please could you run NetSurf 2.1 and e-mail me (off-list) the Log file it generates, and also your !Fonts directory. The Log file is created after NetSurf has been run. You can find it by opening NetSurf's application directory and double click "OpenScrap". The Log file is in the directory that opens. The Fonts folder is usually in !Boot.Resources. Please could you compress the !Fonts directory and e-mail it too me too. Best regards, Michael -- Michael Drake (tlsa) http://www.netsurf-browser.org/

Burda site
Problems displaying this page in Netsurf 2.1 (23 May 2009) http://www.burdafashion.com/en/Magazines/Burda_World_of_Fashion/117_Dress_technical_drawing/1270777-119-1711890-1711993-1711995.html This page is supposed to show jpegs of the patterns, but in Netsurf fails to do so, despite all the rest of the gubbins on the page appearing as normal. It displays the drawings OK in Oregano 1. Any clues as to why jpegs are a problem here? Geoff Potter

I see only a technical drawing of the item, with no patterns, in Firefox, with styling on or off. Can you perhaps provide a couple of screenshots demonstrating the difference? B.

The site is serving GIFs with a JPEG content-type. NetSurf believes the server is telling the truth about what type of file it is, and sends the GIF data to our JPEG handler. The JPEG handler fails to decode the image. To fix it we need to do content-type sniffing. We are aware of the issue, thanks for reporting.

Pizza hut site layout problem
The pizzahut.co.uk site layout does not fully work in NetSurf (R7547). Whilst it is usable, the text is not displayed correctly. See here for how it looks in both Firefox and NetSurf:- http://www.phawfaux.co.uk/test/PizzahutFF.png http://www.phawfaux.co.uk/test/PizzahutNS.png Regards -- Paul Stewart - Far Bletchley, Milton Keynes, England.
