New Netsurf - improved Javascript stability

I downloaded the latest CI build of NS yesterday. There hasn't been one for quite a while. I noticed that it doesn't crash when opening a sport page of the BBC News website, for example. This is a big improvement. I think we're seeing evidence of big changes within Netsurf. Dave _

It may be easier than you think! There are two things you can do: 1) Keep getting and using the latest Continuous Integration (CI) build of NetSurf. You can semi-automate the process nicely with Fetch_NS, which is abailable from http://aconet.org/tools/fetch-ns.zip 2) When it behaves incorrectl
