- Hi, I wonder if anyone else can confirm these Ibrowse0.73 bugs for me, using
- different machine configurations:-
-
-
- BUG REPORT / PRODUCT FEEDBACK
-
- -----------------------------
-
- IBROWSE VERSION 0.73 (21.2.96)
-
-
- -----------------------------
-
-
- From: cjs@icbl.hw.ac.uk
- (christopher Schnurr)
-
-
- Machine:
- A1200 Blizzard 50Mhz 030 with 50Mhz FPU and MMU
- 8Mb Fast Ram
- Workbench 3.0, Kickstart3.0
-
- AmiTCP4.0demo
- "Fakenet" script to allow local use of AmiTCP
- (script detailed below)
-
- BUMMERS:-
- o Iconising a page loses the images. you have to load them in
- again.
- (This happens with image cache on and off)
-
- o Is there a way of iconising just one window and not the whole
- application ? eg : iconise hot list only
-
- o If you open Ibrowse without starting AmiTCP or other such,
- it works in local mode until you try to add to your hotlist:
- then it crashes. (rest of workbench is Okay)
-
- o The image height and width codes are having an affect
- on the amount of ALT text you are allowed to type: - check out:-
- http://www.icbl.hw.ac.uk/~cjs/whitehouse/welcome.html (without
- image loading on, of course).
-
-
- o When you resize the `document source' window, it doesn't
- remember where you are but scrolls back to the top of the
- source :(
-
- o If you stop images loading using the Stop button, you have to
- reload the entire document to start loading them again.
- You can't just start loading again by hitting the
- `load images' button
-
- o Click the following buttons in quick succesion :
- `Reload' `Stop' `Load Images'
- you get the following problem :
-
- Task..: 0x0DDE91F0 "ibrowse"
- Error.: 0x01000009 (Recoverable)
- By....: ExecLibrary
- Cause.: Freeing Memory that is already free
-
- If you select `Continue', (I have MCP installed) you then get :
-
- Task..: 0x0DEBBA78 "ibrowse"
- Error.: 0x81000005 (DEADEND)
- By....: ExecLibrary
- Cause.: Corrupt memory list detected in FreeMem
-
- hitting 'Continue' again gives you:
-
- Task..: 0x0DD39B20 "ibrowse"
- Error.: 0x8000000A (DEADEND)
- By....: System
- Cause.: Line 1010 Emulator Error
-
- At which point, ibrowse dies.

- P.S.
- My 'fakenet' script:
-
- failat 21
- AmiTCP:bin/login -f chris
- AmiTCP:bin/umask 022
- AmiTCP:AmiTCP
- WaitForPort AMITCP
- amitcp:bin/ifconfig lo0 localhost
- amitcp:bin/route add 127.0.0.1 localhost
- assign tcp: EXISTS >NIL:
- if warn
- mount tcp: from amitcp:devs/inet-mountlist
- endif
-
- ----------------------snip-------------------------------------
-
-
- later !
- And keep it up.
-
- In general , I like this product.
-
- and I won't mention anything about Java..... :)
