"no username" trips authentication dialogue
A nephew has emailed us a wedding invitation in the form of a website. It requires a password, which he tells us in the email, but does NOT require a username. With Netsurf, the site starts loading, then the "Site Authentication" dialogue pops up asking for Username and Password. Leave the first field blank, type the password, click Login, loading apparently continues, then the Site Authentication dialogue pops up again (showing blank and password just as we left it). I tried on an Android browser. Its dialogue shows only a Password field, no field for username, and it displays without problem. Seems strange if the RiscOS authentication routine has never come across this situation before. Netsurf #4204. -- Jim Nagelwww.archivemag.co.uk
Crash on Titanium
Hi, I am in the process of building a Titanium based system. Unfortunately Netsurf loads to the icon bar but as soon as you click it the Netsurf window appears and produces an error. (segmentation fault) 4233 version on RiscOS 5.23 I have tried older versions with the same result. Any ideas. TTFN -- Geoff. Baxendale, Darwen, Lancashire. Using Acorn StrongARM Kinetic RiscPC. Oxymoron of the day: "Advanced BASIC"

In NetSurf Choices Images ensure that Image quality Foreground and Background are both set to "Use OS" to avoid using the not ARMv7 compatible Tinct module. I can replicate a Segmentation fault here on attempting to use other settings. -- David Pitt
