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.

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...

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 ...

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; how...

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.

This version is being checked in because the Hotlist manager in the test build provokes a Wimp bug. All the variant resource files are out of sync and there are several outstanding bugs in the main code, so I'd personally avoid this build like the plague unless you're mad enough to want to examine the Wimp problem ;-)
