Netsurf failing on APOD
Can anyone confirm that recent versions of Netsurf are failing to display
http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/.
It works on 1.2 but fails with r6586-r6659, but it may have failed earlier
as I don't update that often.

Running out of memory
Has anyone still got a copy of Netsurf dating to before the memory leak
problem that they could send me (offlist)?
I've reverted to 2.1 for most uses, but I'd rather have something more up
to date.
With the most recent release r9569 on a graphics heavy page I have dynamic
areas 236K, 548K and 51M; under 2.1 the same dynamic areas are 236K, 548K
and 8704K.

It works very well in Fresco. :o

I have the same problem. I've put in an bug report.
The default file opens and saves as a txt file, whenever I
open Netsurf or use the home button. It opens correctly if you drag and
drop or double-click it.

Recent versions of Netsurf are continually logging onto the HD. I
typically have to wipe the log from !Scrap every day, usually several
hundred Mb. It's a real pain, but necessary to stop the HD filling up.

Editing Hotlist.
I've been trying to edit down some of the longer names in my hotlist, but
I can't.
1) Edit in the Neturf hotlist - reverts to previous.
2) Edit hotlist (Netsurf.Choices.Hotlist) directly using !Edit - reverts
to previous, on loading Netsurf.
3) Close Netsurf, delete cache, change hotlist entry in !Edit - reverts to
previous.
It looks as it Netsurf is holding a copy of the hotlist somewhere and then
writing it to Netsurf.Choices when it closes, but it then ignores the copy
in Choices in favour of the hidden copy!!
Anyone any ideas? I suspect I'm wasting my time as Netsurf overwrites the
hotlist entry with the page title anyway, every time it downloads the page.
Does this mean the Global History is overwriting the Hotlist? If so
surely they should be independent.

It's something to do with the two Base Href lines at the beginning.
If you delete them it works.

I add these lines into the file header and edit as necessary (of course
you can also add them to a style sheet).
a:link{ color: #FF }
a:visited { color: #FF }
a:hover { color: #FF }
a:active { color: #FF }
