There are a few known significant problems with this code but it's being checked in so the Choices can be worked on. Note that Res files etc. are not up to date across all builds. Progress is as follows...

Bug report prompted me to do this - now ignore <p> tags straight after
<li> tags, so '<ul><li><p>Some text' works as the author (or automatic
generator, more commonly) intended.

A <p> tag before a table will be acted upon now (it was ignored before).
Something like <li><p><table...> will give a line break and paragraph
space after the <li> despite the changes mentioned above, as in other browsers.
Both browsers differ from Navigator, where the table appears alongside
the <li> tag.

Multiple BR tags work as in MSIE / Navigator (they don't collapse to
zero height anymore).

For the above, line height (and so, <br><br> or <p> spacing) is now
calculated inside reformat_text_line_height, and is used with either
a token to get the text height at a given size (e.g. for general line
spacing or multiple BR tags) or NULL for normal size text (e.g. for
P spacing, though this value is in practice later scaled by 7/8ths in
reformat_check_height). Note this behaviour is exhibited by MSIE 4;
v3 gave two BRs the same spacing as one P (i.e. not font size
dependent).

Save dialogues can have an option button or couple of radios to
switch between various formats (e.g. URI or URL, sprite or original
format). See 'Docs.Notes' for more. The back-end to this is now
implemented (i.e. at the moment, save as URI or URL, save as original
image format). Note that when saving background images, a leafname
based on the original fetch URL is now offered rather than a generic
'Background'.

Internal URL scheme changed to be all lower case, so relativisation
through URL_Fetcher still makes sense... :-/

Holding down 'shift' when clicking on stop reverses the interpretation
of the Controls file 'StopWebServe' entry.

Fixed row / column count for exporting tables as text; fixed a few
bits and pieces of internal URL scheme stuff which got broken when
HTMLLib started using URL_Fetcher's relativisation.

Various fixes in the code required for Shockwave support (many invalid assumptions about the OBJECT tag structure). Not finished yet though.

Played around with signal handling 'n' all that to try and get sensible
errors reported for aborts etc. using code by KBracey. Need a ROM patch
for _swix on RISC OS 3.7 upwards (or a local fixed copy of _swix),
otherwise should sort out most of the problems seen (mostly 'no stack
for trap handler' errors and a distinct lack of a register dump).

Plug-In view on redraw / ASAP choices now work as they should (ASAP
was previously broken).

Version numbers in Messages incremented to 1.25 (23 Oct 1997).

For Plug-In support, created new source file RMA.c/h to handle RMA
claims and releases, in an attempt to ensure leakage never happens.
As such, this source is *slightly* more advanced than that in the 1.25
AW '97 build, though functionally identical. Well, that is, at least
you can confirm zero RMA leakage with '-debug LMem' in TRACE builds now!

Intend to do a consistency check on comment syntax in all sources
shortly - I need to rebuild my StrongHelp manuals; can't keep track
of all of these new functions...

Added MimeMap module support. OBJECT routines now use this to determine if the item is an inline image, and if so pass it to the image routines.

At present, support relies on a (correct) content type.
