How about this one?

yep, browsing and cookies are empty.

About the Network tab, the only "weird" thing is that it uses a very large slider gadget which force to resize automatically the whole preferences window.

are you on a low resolution screen? or try to tweaks with your MUI4>sliders options

Quote:

Yes, i'm using 800x600 screens but i found what caused this problem!: I wasn't using the latest MUI4 update. Once i installed it, it works properly.

The problem with megaupload is still there though.

Nice work Marcik! Keep up the good work :)

Just wondering about:

- Copy & paste text
- A transferanimation ;)
- Support for plugins? Maybe the swf-player for MorphOS could be
included somehow?
- flicker is cool .. but you know ;P

Other than this, its a very nice browser !.. Much more stable than
iBrowse, so now with this Beta release, I use Sputnik more and more.

Thanks for the support!

I dunno if it's a sputnik fault or a 3rd party library, but text typed in a textarea is truncated on accents characters when submitting a form ! That's Sad for french users ! :)

Set right system fonts coding in prefs and problem will be gone.

At least in older version you could get rid of that by adding at least one link to toolbar.

I can consistently crash Sputnik by opening 15 tabs.

CSS Acid2 test ( http://www.webstandards.org/action/acid2/ ) isn't passing, but it's actually not THAT far off - I've seen a heck of a lot worse!

Are you sure it's a crash? Current Sputnik has a problem with dynamic
aadjusting of content. If when you have 14 open tabs they are already
verrrry small and sputnik window is as wide as screen then opening
next tabs will cause mui to close sputnik window - it cannot be fitted
to screen anymore. It'll be fixed in next release.

And about ACID - main reason for it to fail is lack of support for
base64 encoded images in html sources. It has very low priority on my
todo list as it's the first and the only one site which i have seen
using that feature. It's better to implement more needed things first

Firefox 2.0.0.6 on Gentoo messes up the test as well...

Sometimes when Sputnik renders a link it seems there is an extra character in the link text.

I noticed this on some links on Facebook. I think the CSS style might introduce a character that cannot be rendered, after a slash so a "box" character is shown. The link is simply a hyperlinked URL.

The CSS is quite complicated so it's difficult to extract an example to demonstrate this behaviour but perhaps someone else has noticed it on a simpler page ?

UPDATE: I guess Facebook inserts a no width breakable space character to hint where to break the URL and this is not recognised by Sputnik/TTEngine

Marcik: Ah, hmm... yes base-64 encoded images is something that... well, actually, my Arch installation of Lighttpd has one in the default install (: (which came from the original Apache install... hmm. (: )

but yes, keep it low on the list - I _rarely_ see it. (Though I do see it, and more often with AJAX apps these days.)

And yeah, it's a "crash" with 15 tabs - application terminates. But I think you've pegged where it is, the dynamic resize code, and let's face it - THG has stated that _he_ only needs 4 tabs for his very important web work, so I should be able to keep it under 15 (:

Koan: Those extra characters are added by Facebook. They're UTF8 0-width bits, there for some reason in the code from Facebook apps. It's a font rendering issue and it also happens on Opera.

And yes, I'm _extremely_ excited that this browser is doing this well (:

Mi-go: Yes, Firefox doens't get CSS rendering right; Opera and Safari do, however. And that's a HARD test, but a good one - if something gets that right, chances are it's gonna render your css based design properly, no matter what. And Safari's base rendering code is the code base that this stems from; so it could be an issue - but Marcik knows about where it's coming from - which is just f*n excellent (:

@Truck

I have Konqueror 3.5.5 running from OpenSUSE 10.2 and that can't render ACID2. How do you expect Sputnik to do it ?

Maybe Marcik can go and fix all the bugs in WebKit/Safari/Konqueror before he ports it and adds a GUI ?

Sheesh!

Quote:

That's exactly what I wrote in my post 2 days before your post, if you had bothered to read it.

What's a 0-width "bit" ? Do you mean glyph or character ? If you're going to correct me by telling me what I already said you could at least use the right terminology.

@ koan

Because the patches from Safaris khtml engine was submitted over 2 years ago,
http://www.desktoplinux.com/news/NS9840672648.html

So if that's the case the Konqueror developers must have broken something; Safari still pass the test when I try it though.

Edit: spelling.

Qucik note - if some of you see sputnik slowdown after some time and
even closing and opening sputnik again doesn't help then try to write
in shell "flushlib ttengine2.library". That's a temporary fix for now
. And remember - you have to do it when no app is using
ttengine2.library so you have to close sputnik before doing it.

Hummm... I expected that. The file upload method consists in the browser having a way to ask the user for a file, then pack it in a certain way, in order to have it pushed to the server when the form is posted. Funnily enough, not every server is prepared to receive such post data.
Perhaps our own amazing marcik can add this function to the wish list of Sputnik. There's RFC 1867 documentation about it since many years.

When I try to add the following link to "Fastlinks" under "Toolbar" in "Prefs", Sputnik crashes and the Core.cfg file in HTML becomes zero bytes and from then on Sputnik will not start again until I recover the Core.cfg file.

The url:
http://www.morphos-news.de/software.php?lg=en

EDIT: Discovered it's actually when I try to add the third fastlink. The same thing just happened now when I tried to add "http://mail.gmail.com"

Other simpler urls work (www.amiga.org and mos.aminet.net)

I have MOS 2.1(20.08.2008) on an Efika.

My Sputnik version is the one which came with it...

Feature requests:
- Type ahead in Google search (history and google suggest) and url
- About window
- Version string in executable
- Memory watcher. If sputnik grows too fast, and memory is say about 2MB pop a requester and ask if it should abort the operation
- Activity bar (knightrider style) on tab and in status bar when it's working, this in addition to the little "invisible" green light



[ Edited by arnljot on 2008/9/24 23:00 ]

I need to login to an ftp account with Sputnik but this seems not to work as it
allways adds "http://" in front.

The ftp account is: ftp://ftp.sercon.ch

then there should a Login and PW requester open...


Is this not possible with Sputnik? Or can anyone help here?

Thanks for help.

Hi,

I stumbled over another problem here: I have several pw prodected directories
and now because the hosting company switched over from an Apachee Server to
a windows Server I have problems to enter these directories with Sputnik.

Here an ex: http://www.rmsvideo.ch/morphos/

then ther should a window open to enter the user: rms14@dmz.local
and the pw: rms4234

but entering them does not allow to "get in".

Now I tried with IBrowse 2.4 and it works.

Am I doing something wrong? Any idea?

Regards

Christoph

It works here, on Internet Explorer 6, which prompts for user, password AND domain name. Perhaps Sputnik doesn't know how to deal with the domain part in a user name.
One of the ways to tell a complete user name is "domain backslash name". What happens if you give Sputnik "rms14\dmz.local" as user name?

@ jcmarcos

I know that it works with explorer6, the provider tested it, but I'd like to use
MorphOS software (Sputnik) to access the dirs...

Quote:


I tried your suggestion above but I just get the same error: You need to authenticate... and I can't get into the dir.

Quote:

Doh... I guess the same happens if you embed the login and password in the URL:

http://rms14:rms4234@www.rmsvideo.ch/morphos/

Actually, this should never work, as there's no way (that I know of) of embedding the domain name. And I don't know if Sputnik understands this kind of URLs anyway.
So it seems that Sputnik doesn't know how to deal with the new server's (Microsoft IIS) authentication method, and attempts logins that are invalid to the server.
This method is configurable, you could ask your provider to enable basic authentication. Perhaps they think the whole world uses Windows (easy) and just allow for NT authentication (which is more secure than the traditional one). Hence the dialog box with a third field for the domain name.
Anyway, they should know about this, and provide you with a solution: An authentication method suitable for you, the customer.

> Discovered it's actually when I try to add the third fastlink.

Same will happen here, third Fastlink will set core to zero. Editing via Editor will work fine and no Crash ...

@ jcmarcos

unfortunately YES they think that there is only windoooze in the whole world!

And they say: it works with explorer, and firefox and and and...

So, I could force them or I would have to change the provider... which would demand
a lot of energy to find something very suitable for business...

I very much would prefer if this could be adapted in Sputnik so it works!

Christoph

Then, I'd say something very different and rude. Most of all because, if I'm not mistaken, enabling basic authentication is dead easy:

Quote:

That's the idea. They can consider basic authentication as suicide, but that's your server...

Quote:

Sure. But you can only hope that these non-basic authentication methods are well documented and easy to implement. Sputnik's only developer has limited resources.
