\ \ / 3 | Voyager 3.3beta120
\ V / | Beta Release (1.1.2002)
\_/ | http://v3.vapor.com/
Welcome to V3.3beta120
This is the seventh "beta" version of V3 with the new layout
engine. It now has approached a somewhat usable state again.
It's still not compiled with code-optimisation (68k), it
hasn't been manually optimised yet and it still contains
tons of debugging code (and, possibly, the associated bugs).
This is a full release archive and contains everything
needed to run Voyager (except MUI 3.8). Please, do NOT
install this over an old V 3.2 installation, because
some of the subsystems are no longer compatible.
The archive contains the "Classic Amiga" 68020+
build. The native MorphOS build is available in
a different distribution.
Improvements over the last public beta (3.3.117):
- various bugfixes in JS, Image Decoders
and the download manager
Notable known deficiencies (not worth reporting):
- list item blocks don't get proper indentation
(same for BLOCKQUOTE)
- no printing at all
- Navigation within frames is, erm, suboptimal
- JS: function calls across frames don't pass arguments
- "fullscreen" mode and "single window" mode used together
have some complicated quirks
- no SSL support for MorphOS yet
- VFlash plugin doesn't detect resizes
- this list doesn't seem to be shrinking with new
beta versions
------------------------------------------------------------
Changes since 3.3.116/117 [sixth public beta]
3.3.118
-------
- JS: when assigning the special value "undefined" to variables,
an object reference with value "null" was created -- this esspecially
happened when function calls where made with less parameters than
the function expected. Now, the variables are properly undefined.
This fixes comparisions against the string literal "undefined"
(oh my, webmasters) [www.advance-bank.de] (Olli)
- Download: now displays the full pathname instead of the file in the download
listview (Zapek)
- Imgdecode: added PNG alpha support, MorphOS only and with the latest CGFX
(Zapek)
- General: fixed possible crash when window.open() failed due to
lack of resources (Olli)
- General: fixed possible crash when a window with dependant subwindows
was closed (Olli)
- JS: fixed crash-o-nuke with onChange handlers for certain types
of popups [www.orb.de, et.al.] (Olli)
- General: hopefully fixed screwed up cookie dates for the MorphOS build
(Zapek)
- General: fixed processing of multiple placeholder into strings like %p, %u,
etc.. (Zapek)
- General: <form action="blah.html"> is not merged with the base URL anymore
on parsing (to be more like Netscape and IE), instead they are now merged
on submission [www.bootbox.net] (Neko)
- General: fixed various problems with anchor fragment addressing (Olli)
3.3.119
-------
- Network: main network loop could crash by reusing a already
freed URL node under certain circumstances... (Olli)
- Network: fixed a potential problem with the network cache
low memory handler not working under certain circumstances (Olli)
- Image decoder: fixed a low memory issue in the image
decoders, raised version to 19.1 (Olli)
- General: global speed up of the PPC version (Zapek)
- Image decoder: fixed a crash issue with images > 2048 pixels.
Raised version to 19.2 [www.sport1.de] (Olli)
- JS: fixed several problems with JS variable scoping
(like differentiating between local and global variables,
and "leaking" of variables across function contexts), and
assignments to "undefined" [numerous sites] (Olli)
- JS: now deals with illegal octal constants (08 etc.)
like IE, by treating them as decimal (Olli)
- JS: string.search(), string.replace() and string.match()
now also accept a plain string as an argument; a temporary
regexp object is automatically created then (Olli)
- JS: location.pathname now has the leading "/"; fixes some
document.location based string trickery on various
sites [www.speednames.com] (Olli)
- Layouter: images without SRC no longer throw up a "host not found:
undefined" error [www.google.co.uk] (Olli)
- JS: string.replace now functional (JS 1.2 only) (Olli)
- JS: fixed various problems with instantiating literal regular
expressions (Olli)
- Download: now decodes urls containing %20 et al. for saving to disk,
so File%20With%20Spaces.zip becomes "File With Spaces.zip" (Neko)
- FTP: now displays filesizes in Kilo-, Mega- and Gigabytes where
appropriate (Neko)
- Layouter: fixed tab interpretation for pure text layout (Olli)
3.3.120
-------
- updated package with current classes and libraries (Olli)
- no longer quits on beta timeout (Olli)
