Image history - sizes of images are remembered for future reference (if the sizes aren't specified in the HTML, they can be looked for in the image history instead to minimise reformatting requirements). Choices file options ImageHistoryPath, ImageExpiryAge, ImageMaxSize and

SaveImageHistory added to support this (all have a direct analogy to
the global History items of the same name after removing 'Image').

Text area items are now the correct height for the number of rows
specified in the HTML, don't scroll a line too early, and have the
caret placed at the start of the text when moved into from above
or at the end when moved into from below (rather than always at
the end, which was behaviour inherited from single line writables,
where this is desirable). The top of the text area is aligned to
the top of any line of text on the same line, with the text area
dropping below the text, rather than the bottom of the area matching
the text baseline and extending upwards.

Filename extensions for download files are only stripped if an
attempt to convert to a RISC OS filetype through the Mime Mapper module
does not return an error or Data (0xffd) filetype. '.cgi' is a special
case which is always stripped.

Altered heading styles - all are bold, none are italic, H3 is as big
as H2 was, H2 is a little larger, and others scale down to H6 being
the size as normal text (but, as I say, bold).

Sorted out tables and forms. We can just look for tagno=TAG_FORM, and
get rid of the wobbly form_flag; also discarded the redundant
reprocess_table flag in fetch_preprocess_token. Two separate forms
in consecutive table cells (for example) which used to fail - they
were submitted as one single form - will now work correctly.

Fixed nasty bug in FontManage.c where font size 7 would intermittently
fail. The stupid font sizes that it could ask the Font Manager for may
be responsible for the occasional Font Manager crashes that have been
noticed. Array for font sizes was declared as [Limits_FontSizes], but
indices 1 to Limits_FontSizes are actually used - so needed a '+ 1'
in the declaration... :-/

Replaced the case insensitive string comparison functions in Utils.c
with more efficient versions by S.Brodie.

MAXLENGTH specifier in INPUT tags is now supported. If unspecified or
specifically zero, the browser overrides and allows any length.

Adjust-click on forwards/backwards buttons did not work in the intermediate
build, and now does.

Adjust-click on form submission buttons where the submit method is POST
will now work correctly, as the new view inherits the extradata block
of the old. Failure of this is signalled through
make_no_fetch_memory_error, code 16 (see updated Errors file in Docs).
Note the name change of extradata in this context; more details below.

The passing of forms POST data and extra headers for sending in an
HTTP request via. the URL module was all done through pointers into
flex blocks, and was therefore very unsafe. All relevant functions now
use pointers to pointers to the data.

To remove confusion on the umpteen uses of the word 'extradata', the field
in browser_data has been renamed to 'post_data'. The 'extradata' parameters
used within FetchPage.c were all disconnected from the extra header info /
form POST data stuff that extradata is usually associated with, and have
thus also been renamed, in this case to 'appnddata' (Append Data).

As well as X-NoProxy, the browser sends the 'proper' HTTP headers
Pragma:no-cache and Cache-Control:no-cache.

A redirection from a POST request was not handled correctly; despite
what HTTP specs say, you're supposed to use GET for the new URL. The
browser was, but when it chopped off the redundant header data in the
request didn't terminate it and left Content-Type in anyway...! Fixed.

Ctrl+Tab implemented - URL completion. Comes from the hotlist URLs,
hotlist titles, history hosts, paths, full URLs and lastly titles.
See code comments for more (history_find_match, hotlist_find_match).

TableSupport option added to Choices; it is read, can be set by the
front-end, but doesn't actually do anything else yet.

Reversed Choices' semantics on 'don't expire by...' for History. Added
'needs_redraw' flag to choices_get_contents so that, for example, if the
table border types change, browsers get redrawn.

This is an intermediate check-in to allow work on Choices for the new table options and History choices as detailed below. Res files are not up to date except where indicated and there are several known bugs that will be fixed before the 'final' v1.27 is created. Any work on resources should only be done for the testbed !Browse.

Client side image maps implemented. There is code to draw highlighted
borders in CSIM.c, but this is not wired in yet; other than that,
the implementation is functionally complete. As part of this, centralised
the fetching of a targetted URL taking into account user request of a
new view and full screen mode, in fetchpage_fetch_targetted. The forms
library now uses this too, so form buttons respond to both adjust-clicks
and TARGET attributes.

Fixed APPLET handling where '.class' isn't present in the CODE attribute.

Paragraphs squashed at the top of cells/pages - browser would insert white
space before.

Now append a ' ' to the end of History menu items to prevent the Wimp
thinking the end of entries represents a keyboard shortcut (e.g. 'Home').

Netscape's handling of 'meta http-equiv="refresh"' is to start counting
when the fetch has completed and everything else has died down. The browser
will now not start counting until the animation handler is deregistered
(so formatting is complete) to show similar behaviour (note that this
checks the main handler, not the 'idle but returning to first frame'
drift handler).

URLs from requests for fetches by Plug-Ins are now relativised.

Page width change tolerance prior to reformat upped from 16 to 32 OS
units. Hoping to provoke a loosely connected bug with this change!

TableOuter, TableInner and SeeFetches choices added to all Choices
files, with appropriate loading and saving code in Main.c and Save.c.
AuthorFTP and AuthorFSh messages added for FTP authentication, and
dialogue handling code (the component in FetchHTML.c) updated to
recognise an FTP fetch and alter the dialogue presentation
appropriately.

All Messages file version numbers taken up to 1.27 (20 Nov 1997).

Following a UseNet suggestion, Ctrl+Toggle Size will increase the window
size to fill the screen vertically only; horizontal size/positioning is
not changed.

Shift+Tab in the URL writable will cycle through alternative fetcher
protocols (from both the Controls file and checking the fetcher modules
are actually present).

Hotlist doesn't require '://' in URLs when loading HTML, just ':/' - so
'file:/' URLs now will be reloaded correctly.

History system rewritten completely. GHistSize and VHistSize options
removed, and replaced by MaxSize and ExpiryAge. Now have global history
menus with most recently visited items at the top, and local history
menus which reflect the path that forward/back buttons would take.
Browsers are robust to background expiry of the History though this is
not implemented - date expiry and size checks are carried out on
history_record only. This does mean that with two windows open one could
have the history expired underneath it whilst another fetched, though;
the code handles this and update toolbars (greying items) as necessary.
It is possible to have the history limits so tight that even one entry
will not fit and again the code copes with this, though values read
from Choices are limit checked to ensure rather more useful results!

Implemented 'Save' button in save dialogues. Remembers pathnames and just
replaces the leaf now (hard coded exceptions for <Wimp$Scrap>... and
<Wimp$ScrapDir>...) - it did before, but only if you'd typed the path
in. Not many people did, given that you couldn't press Return or click on
a Save button to use that path...

In a similar vein, files of type Data or DOS will be checked for a '/xxx'
type extension and the MimeMap module will be used to find a more meaningful
filetype. If this can be handled, the file is loaded. This only works for
files dragged to the browser - the behaviour with inline data in web pages
will depend on the File module, and similarly, if File doesn't spot what is
going on and claims that the object is data, the browser will just open a
save dialogue for it.

!RunD files taken up to 3072K WimpSlot.

Hotlist's saved HTML page title wasn't internationalised - is now. This
opened up a significant can of worms; on file write error, the file would
never be closed, and if a caller of the save or load functions passed
in a filename held in the global Messages lookup buffer then subsequent
lookups in the callees would corrupt that filename. All sorted out now.

Local (not very useful) or global (useful) histories can be saved as HTML,
which opens up the possibility of sending your history to the hotlist
by saving to it. Local and global histories can also be emptied, though
this is probably not a feature that current release Desktop browsers need.
Inheritance of local history and certain UI features is now done more or
less for all cases where one browser window spawns another, too.

Vertical alignment on images is rather less ropey than it was (e.g.
ALIGN=TOP stands half a chance of working) but is still far from perfect.
This was part of fixing a nasty little bug in Redraw.c's setting of
an image position via. image_set_token_image_position, which was making
(amongst possibly many other things) client side image maps fail.
Image update where images had large borders was affected by a similar
problem too (more cans with more worms...).

Fixed image background filler functions; two problems. When cross
referenced images were replaced by base images in a browser because the
original owner was closing down, the original owner browser would stay
registered with ImageLib. Fixed; secondly, when images were deleted from
the image array causing those above to be renumbered, images registered
with ImageLib did not have their numbers updated (this was the one that
lead to the visible drop out of background images with PNGs on the Acorn
Internet home page when there were two views of the page and the first
was closed). This is now also sorted out.

Now handles PARAM tags. Sorted out Plug-In bug that was related to Java setting a 0 by 0 graphics window before calling Wimp_Poll (fixed in Java).

Implemented queue for Plug-Ins so multiple broadcasts aren't sent for
several Objects in one data chunk.

Added Docs directory with some documentation in it. More things to keep
checking for stylistic consistency, horray ;-)

Corrected !Run[D] for Ursula build to need AcornURI but not TaskModule
(URI handler needed for !Mail to pick up mailto: links).

Added display_height field to browser_data, analogous to display_width,
to cope with % sized objects by width and height (see how HRs are
handled in Redraw.c for an example of how it was always fairly easy
with width, but not height until this addition). Though you do have
to reload to get a new size; reformat isn't enough. Must see to this
some time...

Fixed bug where basic typefaces were claimed *before* the Choices file
had been read. For unusual Choices settings, this could create some
'interesting' problems now and again. This was part of narrower scope
work in the Choices code to allow font changing without leaking font
handles (now done; fm_shutdown only ditches fonts, it keeps internal
structures - must then call  fm_lose_fonts for all browsers to get the
bitfields up to date, then rewrite the typeface definitions and reclaim
basic fonts). Noticed that fm_claim_basic_typefaces would claim multiple
instances of the same font if there were several cases of the same font
mapped to different typeface styles - fixed.

Implemented PlugInControl settings, but not SupportObject (fully).

!Run[D] files updated for new fetchers and GopherFetcher; protocols list in Controls updated for Gopher. Debug builds now require 2760K rather than 2560K. Font$... variables set if not already, in anticipation of font

Choices work.

Additional bits in Choices section of Res file tidied and some name
changes (e.g. Netscape -> Navigator(TM)). Frames support option added
to Choices.

Grouped 'support_frames' under the Fetch Controls section and added
support_object in Global.h; appropriate entries placed in the Choices
files, and are read at startup. At present, though, only the frames
support flag is implemented.

For some reason, Menu was the button to use on history popups if you
wanted to show URLs instead of descriptions (or vice versa, depending
on Choices settings). Now, Select and Menu will show the Choices
defined setting, and Adjust will show the opposite.

History menus are built backwards, so local histories have the most
recently visited pages at the top. Global history has still no real
order to it, but this may be arranged later.

Customer name changed to Customer by request.

Customer browser now gets its own resources (SYSTEM=Customer), but
otherwise is unchanged, with the Ursula build now giving the
'spinning acorn' with a Bookworm-style toolbar. This is used for the
Desktop !Browse build.

!Sprites[22] files updated to include GIF, JPEG and PNG sprites;
!Run[D] files and !Boot files set appropriate File$Type_xxx variables.
Sprites in all sprites files have been checked for unnecessary palettes,
which have been removed where present.

StrongHelp generator on it. Revealed a spurious toolbox_hide_object call
that would always fault and never do anything, and a few heinous uses
of show_error which have all been removed.

When dragging hotlist items, directories will now be highlighted whenever
the item would be added to them, rather than just over the sprite. In
practice this only changes if the item is open and has contents...

Drag box selections had broken in the hotlist; fixed (uninitialised
variable in hotlist_select_box). Adjust-drags now close the window on
completion. Minor problem with Shift+Drag (copy) reversing order of items
sorted out. Added hotlist_add_html_file and implemented loading of HTML.
DO NOT add broken HTML files, this has not been coded for and URLs of the
form http:///this/that (no host name) will hang the machine (bug in the
cookie code of the HTTP module up to at least version 0.39).

Made SELECT list items only as wide as the widest entry actually appears
(using fm_get_string_width), rather than as wide as the widest character
BBox in the font multiplied by the string length of the longest entry.

Updated !Run[D] files to require HTTP 0.39, FTP 0.12 and File 0.23.

Now working on source merged with Kevin Bracey's internationalisation support. UNIFONT is undefined in the Make File for now. All Res and

Choices files updated appropriately.

Having sorted out the old Choices and Messages to form Choices, Controls
and Messages, this build has had the same cleaning up done internally.
This includes greater consistency in naming schemes and the removal of
the inconsitent choices items - e.g. Choices file entries saying 'delay
images' and 'plain backgrounds' where internally all the flags say 'show
images' and 'show backgrounds'. ChoiceDefs.h and CtrlDefs.h added to
clarify the meaning of some fields, though usage of these is not 100%
in the source (there are cases where parameters are passed through to
functions as ints, and those functions still check these against hard
coded values rather than the #define stuff).

Fetcher status return bits (connected, sent request, etc.) now reflected
in status bar. Progress during fetchs to files are reported by %, where
the size of the object is known. Exceeding 100% drops back to a byte
counter, in case the estimated size was wrong. The progress counter
may be updated after specific delays, rather than 'as often as possible',
to reduce flicker (as requested by D.Brown some time ago).

I've done a small rewrite of the fetch prioritisation scheme in FetchPage.c;
how well this performs in general use across different processor speeds
remains to be tested, but certainly it has some advantages. For each small
fetch window before the rewrite, a 4cs tight loop was entered - this gave a
noticable and substantial drain to the Desktop performance if more than one
was opened. Now, several can be up at once with little hit. The actual file
fetch is on half the priority it was before, with all others taken back
just a bit - e.g. from 20cs per poll to 15cs per poll for flat out
reformatting. You don't seem to lose much time on the format in practice,
and the Desktop feels quite a bit lighter at the same time. There's the
potential for smoother frameset loading in this scheme, too.

When Shift+Clicking on a link meant you still fetched inside the main
browser window, several fetches could occur in a frameset - one per frame.
However, now that you can only do this by clicking on a link that leads to
non-displayable data - or by turning off the small fetch windows by
setting UseSmall to 'no' in Choices - a bug where fetchpage_preprocessed
would stop such fetches as new ones were started was revealed.
The API to frames_abort_fetching has now been extended to include a
'stop file spooling too' flag, allowing a fix to be made by having
fetchpage_preprocess's calls not set this (and it doesn't check the
savelink flag is unset before proceeding, since frames_abort_fetching
does that implicitly now).

Had left the RAM transfer buffer at 16 bytes (from testing) accidentally...
Oops. Upped it to 4K. In addition, when loading data by RAM transfer,
the browser didn't notice if a RAMFetch bounced during the transfer. It
would be treated as a 'first' RAMFetch bounce, basically, and try to go to
file transfer - oops. Fixed.

As warned in the last log, pretty much all event codes and component IDs have now changed along with many of the names, to provide a consistent name and numberspace for events and components. This also minimises number clashes (e.g. as was, the Save File origin when opened from a

Hotlist menu with an already-used component ID). To get full details on
this, please carefully read through TBEvents.h.

Res files, Sprites files and Messages files have been updated again both
due to the above, and routine additions (e.g. message support for a few
Hotlist bits and pieces). !Run[D] files updated for FTP 0.11 and
HTTP 0.36.

In the Makefile, the Customer objects list was missing Save - must have
moved something when I should've copied it, when adding in SaveFile or
SaveObject in all probability. Now fixed. Couple of other bits and bobs
fixed in the build environment (e.g. stuff saying !Argo instead of
!Customer). Oh, and I've altered the MakeFile copy options again to the
best compromise I can come up with. Newer is turned on for everything
except !Run[D] and !RunImage, since both of those change between debug
builds - otherwise if you'd built debug and non-debug versions, it was
not possible to switch between them - one version would have the newer
timestamp and thus never get overwritten.

The default hotlist has had a few items added - that'll be about the end
of it, I think; there's more than enough stuff in there now.

Saving of the hotlist from the document menu and of URI files,
directories and selections from the hotlist menu tree is now implemented
- this new save system rocks... Oh, and you can save all images and
backgrounds as sprites.

Saving of items with Shift+Click to other applications directly now
works, and is robust. Unique Scrap filenames are used, with data load
bounces (e.g. if some pra - er, person quits the app they're sending
to) working correctly - that is, give an error, keep the file, rename
it to something safe, and open the directory it lies in. As opposed
to normal app-to-app bounces, where the scrap file is deleted (see
PRM 3-254). This means you can now look at README files in FTP
sites, say, without using a disc intermediate. Or you can send pictures
straight to ChangeFSI, fetch HTML links into editors, and so-on, and
so-on - it's all very funky. Known problems include the ambiguous
'invalid component ID' instead of 'file open' for *normal* (straight to
disc) shift+click saves, and I think I'll introduce a unique name
guarantee of some sort to stop 'file open' in the first place. Odd
that the really tricky part (app-to-app) should be least likely to
suffer from this!

Only the Browse resources are currently valid.

Added Utils.Icons - has a few archives inside containing the resources
(well, some of them) used to build various UI sprites for various builds.
Archived because these are unlikely to change much, and putting them on
CVS was a move to, well, archive the stuff...

SaveDBox objects vanquished and requirements in !Run[D] files removed. The
data save code fits much more neatly in amongst the data load protocol
stuff now (with the slight exception of having to split the SaveObject
source into SaveObject and SaveFile - the former handles multiple persistent
dialogues for Shift+Click on links and the like, the latter handles 'one at
a time' transient dialogues for save source and similar). Export Link is now
supported, too, and writes a 'proper' version URI file. You'll find that
double-clicking on old URI files will work as the URI handler picks them up,
whilst new version ones don't; however, dragging onto the browser will only
work with new version files. Note that support for saving and loading URL
files (ANT suite stuff) is present too, so old URI files can be typed as URL
files if you want to keep them working without modification - the URI
handler itself will hopefully support the defined URI file format soon;
double-clicking on old URI files will stop working at that point. Note
there are *lots* of changes in every Res file to support all this. This may
all seem a bit pointless to some, but the changes do in fact make it very
easy to add new save dialogues all over the place. Certainly much easier
than with the previous system, anyway. In fact, post script, image
'save as sprite' took about half an hour, which I hope proves the worth
of the new system.

Merged in newer hotlist code with support for drag cancelling with Escape
(all relevant Res files appropriately updated) and cancelling scrolling
when you've reached the window scroll limit. Had to move some of the
Wimp message handling stuff to the central Protocols source, as clashes
were occuring, and also the hotlist routines were using independent saving
code - a lot of duplicated effort. This was fair enough as at the time the
Hotlist code was written, the Save code couldn't be used in the way it is
now.

New Save Source and Print buttons on the toolbar of some builds.

Phoenix Sprites file made more efficient - the Acorn base section has been
split from the animated upper region. Browse build has a new grey fade
sprite at the back, which is less grainy than the previous one and only
uses 16 colours (with a 16 greyscale palette).

Not really a bug, bug the routine to start an image fetch for INPUT
TYPE=IMAGE forms items only did so if the src field (or equivalent, for
this tag type) was non-NULL. In fact, you should always call image_new_image
and let that handle the rest, otherwise other sections of the code will fail
as they try to obtain an image number for a given HStream and get -1 back.
This problem only generally manifested itself when loading an HTML file to
the browser straight from an application, as many src fields become NULL
when the relativisation routines find nothing to relativise to...

Authentication got broken somewhere along the line - this has been fixed
(in HTMLLib and the browser).

Ctrl+Click on a cross referenced image updates *all* copies, not just the
one with the image data attached.

Next big step: Rip up TBEvents.h and rebuild that whole approach somewhat.
To all those working on the code, my apologies but this means all Res files
will receive a very large number of alterations and there will be extensive
code changes too (mostly naming convention stuff), in more or less all
source files. I am endeavouring to ensure that the new numberspace
convention does not clash with the work being done by Kevin on
internationalisation.

File fetches now set DEADDEAD during the fetch, Data if it is aborted, or an appropriate filetype when finished. If the fetcher routines return a zero or data filetype, the browser looks at a set of hard coded filename extensions to try and determine if there's a better filetype to use

(urlutils_filetype_from_url) - since this is a centralised routine it can
use a Mime mapping system (or be removed entirely) as and when one becomes
available.

You can now drag URI / URL files to the Hotlist window to add them to the
list. They are added roughly where dragged to. (NB, note that I renamed
the function to return the window ID - just being picky; it matches other
similar functions now). Oh, and hotlist_add_position actually works now ;-)

The global history will save when titles are added, as well as when a URL
is added. Before, a browser crash could mean a title got dropped out
of the history file even if SaveHistory was set to 'always'.

SaveObject sources have been added but nothing references them or links
them in yet - they're not finished. Mostly checking this one in because
of the hotlist changes.

- i.e. it includes the changes that were part of the intermediate check-in
done yesterday (02/09/97).

New function to go from URL to pathname in urlutils, also changed return
values on those functions which alter the given buffer to return nothing,
rather than the buffer address (which wasn't helpful).

Fixed nasty in the Message_DataLoad code (it thought all loads were
app to app - oops; can in fact just check your_ref, which is 0 if this
is a DataOpen or DataLoad direct from the Filer. PRM 3-253).

Implemented Load Images and View Source buttons.

Small fetch window - configurable in Choices (UseSmall) is the use of a
special 'small' window for fetches. Configurable as if you Shift+Select
click it'll open one of these, which some people might hate, so you
can turn the feature off and the fetch will progress in the browser
window you clicked on, as normal. Default is for this to be on, since
it matches the behaviour of other browsers. This means all Res files
have been updated, except for the Customer build, which can't fetch
external objects as it is a full screen variant.

New pointers for the hotlist autoscroll, including full specification
of their active point offsets in Controls. This means all Sprites files
have been updated.

New sprites for HTML and URI files, so all !Sprites and !Sprites22 have
been updated.

(Suggested by KBracey) You can now drag objects to the toolbars of a window
to fetch into the ancestor (useful for framesets).

Function windows_close_browser now returns void; it only returned an int as
it used to be a Toolbox event handler and I obviously forgot to get rid of
this when I turned it into a general purpose function.

!Run/!RunD/etc. files updated yet again, since the browser now supports
different application names. Corrected fault where Browse$CookiePath was
being unset - should've been Browse$CookieFile and Browse$CookieFileFormat.
420K is no longer enough, so they've all been given 512K for the non-debug
versions (OK since malloc will fill up any excess allocation before starting
to extend the slot size itself).

Fixed global history bug - the history would become corrupted whenever
it exceeded the maximum size specified in Choices.

Fetcher now supports HTTP return code 301 (Moved Permanently). Wrapped in
#ifndef STRICT_PARSER.

I've started on some general documentation, aside from the overdetailed
PSI memory information (which needs updating). Once this gets some substance
to it and achieves a recognisable, maintainable structure, it'll get added
to CVS - for now, there's no point (you'd have trouble making sense of the
various unsorted fragments!).

Right. Time to get rid of SaveDBox.

Created Protocols source file and moved a lot of message handling from handle_messages - the latter now serves as a high level distributor to lower level functions in Protocols. Incidentally, URL files (as used by the ANT suite) can be loaded by dragging to the browser in the same way as URI files - Not A Lot Of People Know That, etc.

Merged new hotlist display type Res file to existing resources, added
support for DataSave message so items can be dragged from the hotlist
to a specific window (RAM transfer for URI and URL files; ScrapFile for
HTML and Text but deleted afterwards and there are appropriate guards
to stop Reload just saying 'not found'; images run through ScrapFile and
there is no choice but to leave them there and do a conventional fetch).

All !RunD files now give a WimpSlot of 2304K. Some small changes to
the Argo and Ursula build Res files to make the menu trees more sensible.
Controls files now take 'file:/' instead of 'file://' in Protocols
section. Definitions at top of URLutils.c *not* altered, as then you
end up with invalid URLs - so it will accept 'file:/', but always generate
'file://'. This is because some browsers exports 'file:/'. Sigh.

make_no_[..._]memory_error functions now return a _kernel_oserror * rather
than void. It's always &erb returned, but it enables users to use a more
elegant 'return make_no_memory_error(1);', say, rather than something
like 'make_no_memory_error(1); return &erb;'. I obviously should've written
it like that at the outset, but never mind. All callers have been
appropriately updated.

The urlutils_leafname_from_url function now replaces illegal characters
(A7000 Welcome Guide p54...) in the leaf with legal alternatives.

Internal URL scheme is now a bit cleaner, with everything properly defined
in URLutils.h. All references to http:, file: and ftp:, with or without
a following '//' use the definitions in here now.

More tidying and some reorganising of Hotlist source. Auto-open delay is
now a Choices item. Some dependencies on statics removed (e.g. the
counting functions don't accumulate into the global item_number now).
The redraw functions used Wimp_TextOp - oops, so this has been amended
to use whatever is supported on your Wimp. This is now in a new function
(utils_text_width()), which the History menu routines also use (there was
a bug in the width routine there anyway, which is therefore fixed in
passing). Several other routines used Wimp_TextOp directly too, and
they have been altered to use the new function as well.

In hotlist code, one of the larger changes is in the API to hotlist_draw_r()
(formerly _hotlist_draw()) which now takes item widths and heights as
parameters - discovering these is quite slow, so doing it every time the
function calls itself recursively is a little less efficient than
passing the values in from elsewhere. Note that underscore prefixed
functions are being slowly renamed to _r suffixed functions, to match
the convention established by Tony Cheal with is table routines. This
makes it much more obvious when something is recursive, as the same
naming convention is used in every browser source file.

Finally, note that I intend to ditch SaveDBox and use an alternate window
with manual control of the messaging in Protocols.c. This will allow
various improvements which at present the SaveDBox operational methods
preclude. I'm going to have to do at least an alternate Window object for
the SaveDBox module to use soon in any case. Getting rid of SaveDBox will
help reduce, if only slightly, demands on the RMA.

Open URL implementation more or less complete, though may undergo UI
revision at a later date to allow named frames to be targetted. Hope to use
the ideas in this code as the foundation for other general dialogues.

In token stream dump for TRACE builds, table head items were not indented
as far as they should have been - this is fixed; and manual toolbar redraw
routines have been removed. They never worked, were commented out, and
would never be used in that form anyway.

DragBox source added, but it isn't at all complete and won't work - this is
an 'in spare time' thing. We need custom drag boxes constrained to windows
for the hotlist, and unconstrained for frame border resizing... Hey ho.

Ancestor window extents match visible areas if there are frames (no more
scrolling framesets...!). Frame resizing works whilst new documents fetch
without pulling the extent down now. However, frame horizontal extents
never shrink until a reload which is nasty, and this is all due for a
rewrite. Frames border redrawing routine moved out of Redraw.c and into
Frames.c. Bug regarding the mouse rectangle and frame border widths
(rectangle was too large, so you could squash the edges) for edge-drag
frame resizes fixed.

Window width change reformat tolerance fixed; you could creep the window
width down or up forever without any reformat, and centred objects would
move but not be redrawn (thereby giving rise to subsequent redraw errors).

Filetype on objects saved through Shift+Click correct. Save Source dialogue
recognises if that source is plain text, rather than assuming HTML. A
browser that fetches a file remembers the old store size it had before the
save, so even though the data is now ditched, it reports the same amount of
data fetched afterwards (looked awful when this could, for example,
suddenly say '0' after a file save). Progress indicator is now fully aware
of one or many file saves inside a frameset and reports the number of
saves, a colon, and the cumulative saved data count, instead of reporting
the sum total of fetched data in all frames, including non-file save stuff
(note that for just 1 save, '1:' is not shown as a special case for the
most common condition). A bug related to this, where you could in fact only
do one fetch per frame*set*, has been corrected (only one fetch allowed per
frame still, this is unlikely to ever change).

Hotlist support added (D.Brown's source), with various bits of integration
and modification still in progress there. Note additions to the Messages
files. On the subject of Messages, the whole mucky business about what
goes in Messages or Choices (and a few bugs where lookup_choice was used
instead of lookup_token or vice versa) has been sorted out. Messages
contains, more or less, just that. Choices contains user configurable
stuff which generally can't mess things up too badly. A new file, Controls,
is a Messages file holding the non-user configurable choices, which can
generally make things go badly wrong if misused. A lot of these are tied
to the Res file. StrongED users can get these to automatically fold out
the various sections (EMail me for details). Sorry, but at the time of
writing, Zap doesn't do folding... =8*P

Two bugs with images. Asking for images to be shown in browser B when
browser A uses the same ones and was loaded first didn't work correctly,
and now does (a bit weird - browser A does the fetch and browser B does the
display...). Second one occurred when the background image was also used on
the page as a foreground image. This has been fixed by flagging background
images in the image_info structure, and checking this before cross
referencing. This bit also allowed the image_restart_fetches API to be
extended, so that just background or foreground images may be fetched if
they weren't already and the user asked the browser to show them. Before,
the whole lot had to be fetched together (so turning on 'display
backgrounds' will now kick off an image fetch if required, you don't
need to reload the page anymore).

Makefile copy options tweaked to be 'newer' (so if you're testing with some
temporary Choices file or something, it won't write over it at the end of
every export), and REMOTE_HOTLIST flag added for Customer builds - means
the Hotlist.c functions aren't needed; the old, hotlist-by-file method is
used. Added support for Customer build (see later), though there were very
few additions needed in practice.

Table printing fixed - in many ways it wasn't broken, it was image printing
causing the oddities ever since the global image pool was introduced (this
is, again, fixed). The 'reformat to fit page' option didn't work as coded
any more; tables store cell addresses in the HStreams, so you can't then do
a background reformat in a different browser. Hence, it now has to reformat
to the page width, print, then put the page back again, all in the actual
displayed browser. This doesn't feel as slow in use as it perhaps should,
considering what is going on... Note that a line of a defined fraction (see
Print.h) of page height will now split over page boundaries, so tall images
or tall tables don't cause problems now (aside from the obvious problem of
having the line split over a page at all!). There was a bug in the routine
to print from a given start point until 'n' pages had been filled, in that
it always filled 'n + 1' - now fixed. Finally, as part of the printing
tweaks, a new dialogue exists - PrintStyle - with a similarly named source
file added to deal with it.

Global history auto save / load done, but only to the Choices file path -
the whole browser is still strictly single user at present, with all the
extra work for a multiuser Customer environment yet to be done. This has
shown up a global history corruption problem which I haven't fixed yet.

Rationalising TBEvents.h - things are migrating out of it, and into more
appropriate sources (e.g. definitions relating to the Open URL dialogue are
going into OpenURL.h, etc.). Event codes were at one stage deliberately
diverged in numberspace from the component IDs of typical gadgets raising
the events, to avoid anyone getting confused and thinking the IDs and event
codes must match. However, this is in fact unlikely and it is much easier
to remember the fewer numbers that result from tying the two together where
possible. This has resulted in changes to event codes raised in the
following objects of all Res files: Authorise, Find, OpenURL, and
PrintStyle.

And finally - !Run[D] files for all variants updated to require the latest
toolbox and fetcher modules. All Res files updated for hotlists etc. and
sprites files updated appropriately. All Messages, Choices and Controls
files brought in sync., and an Customer build has been added (based on the
Desktop build binary with different resources).

That's all for now...

Limits.h, and ensured consistent comment styling throughout all sources.
Fetch.c/h split to Fetch, FetchHTML and URLveneer. URLstat.c/h produced to
cope with this. OpenURL and Find sources created from bits in the Windows
source file that shouldn't have been there... These will get filled out
shortly. Note that a few functions in Fetch are due to be renamed and moved;
probably to Tokenutils.

(adding up to a greater whole), which include removal of the dastardly
'invalid image number' errors that trace builds would raise from time to
time. Frame highlights are now better controlled (releaseably so).
Generally, this build represents the first genuinely promising version
of the browser for quite some time, despite the known library problems
with comment handling etc.
