Implemented font size choices.

Altered new directory handler to create new directories at the end of the list if the pointer was past the end of the list of items.

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...

Places where ModeChange should be called in image_fill_background marked, but commented out (because of problems with flex moving when redirected to a sprite).

A few more tags added to Trace.

Minimal support for font choices added, fixed problem with colour changing with browsers with no background colour specified.  Options for Objects implemented.

Minimal support for font choices added, fixed problem with colour changing with browsers with no background colour specified.  Options for Objects implemented.

So I added it again.

More reformatter code bugs fixed; this one regarding width of items. Any kerned string was overestimated (causing redraw bugs and caret position problems in forms, apart from other minor bits elsewhere) and the default size of a writable icon wasn't especially clever.

Crude Plug-In support; just about manages Java, but can't fetch on
behalf of Plug-In (for example). Had to change the default file access
URL construction to be 'file:/' instead of 'file://', or local file
fetches that reference Java applets won't work. This is in its very
early stages, and is being checked in mostly so that various Choices
issues can be worked on.

!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 t...

Stopped various displays being redrawn unnecessarily when cancel is pressed in main choices dialogue.

FRAMES_SUPPORT #define removed.

Optimised fm_token_font_info().

Added support for LI tokens with text (for ordered lists).

Now outdents bullets from indent value, rather than indenting bullets by
the indent value and further indenting text. May need to look at default
Choices files because of this.

Limited the margin to always be non-negative.

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.

Choices now allows gadgets to be in any subwindow with some limitations which are addressed in the header file.  Also there is no longer a concept of named subwindows.

Res files had component 0x29fc in frame gadgets for Choices - that's meant to be the 'fake page' display. Sorted that out.

Got rid of unnecessary #define in Choices.h; the gadget autodetect
for the colour choices took its place.

Unsized objects now default to the same dimensions as unsized images.

Calling HtmlEndParse at the end of html_get_next_token and setting up->context to NULL was wrong; fetch_fetcher would end up recalling html_get_next_token later which would then call HtmlParse even though the document parse had just finished! The HtmlEndParse call has now been moved to fetch_stop.

Altered reformatter to claim fonts inside a browser, rather than
claiming them for nothing and losing them afterwards.

Got rid of TAG == TABLE and ISBODY tests, replacing with tagno == TAG_TABLE.
Removed all references to TD, TH, TR and TABLE in the style word.

Big steps forward in vertical white space handling as a result of improvements in HTMLLib in this area ( -> all versions now 1.22 beta-2).

As a result, the 'last_space' field in browser_data struct has been
removed. Note that this relies quite heavily on setting of the PCDATA
bit in the 'style' field of an HStream and the automatic collapsing
of (for example) multiple P tags inside HTMLLib.

Trace.c improved to recognise various bits in the 'style' field of an
HStream structure.

Phoenix defaults altered to a more 'standard' set of choices; Trinity
as the serif font, with a slightly larger default font size. This is
because there's a good chance it might get released to a wider audience
than Acorn internal (though the animation and icon bar sprites will
have to change before then...).

MiscDefs updated for new SWI numbers in HTTP module; !Run[D] files thus
updated to require HTTP 0.42 or later. At this point, all earlier
modules are not backwards compatible in terms of direct calls to the
HTTP module, though this only affects cookies_process_cookie at present.
At the same time, checks for System$Path, InetDBase$Path, and setting
of Inet$MimeMappings if not already defined have been added to the Run
files along with RMEnsures of Resolver and MimeMap.

Object and PlugIn c/h pairs created to handle OBJECT, EMBED and APPLET,
and the RISC OS Plug-In interface respectively. Not part of the build
process yet. Addition of 'odata' field in browser_data struct and
definition of chunk CK_OBJB for memory_set_chunk_size() are in support
of this.

Fixed problem that affected some internal URLs, most noticably loading external images, where up->fetching was set to zero when it should have been left at 1 (see fetch shutdown code at about line 1670 in FetchHTML.c).

*This* is the source that will be sent to PSI, not the previous release as
stated in the log, though Customer were sent a browser based on this
previous code.

!Run[D] files updated to require FTP 0.14, and ensure that the Resolver and MimeMap modules are present. Paragraph tags can now affect images and other such objects - previously they only worked on text (this was noticed for a DIV element containing one image, which was preceeded by a P element but didn't have any white space above it).

This is the source that will be released to PSI, and builds the Customer
!Customer and internal !Phoenix releases at about 5:00pm on 10/03/97.

Redraw routines now allow tables to be indented with body text. Some page
layouts rely on this.

Dropping on the lower half of an open, empty directory will now drop
inside it rather than after it.

Updated Res files in appropriate builds to hold various (similar) Choices
designs.

Choices related menus were flagged as Shared, but none of the dialogues
(including ColourDBox) were - potential future problems, though shouldn't
cause any leaks at present. This has been sorted out anyway.

Encoding function encoding_init no longer returns an error from
toolbox_create_object, so the Encoding menu and all those attached
to it do not have to be present (e.g. the Customer build).

SUB, SUP, STRIKE and U supported. U underlines the baseline of the body text
font, whilst STRIKE will go through roughly the middle of the lower case
chars even if the font is SUP or SUB. Note that Navigator appears to shift
the underline point for SUB and SUP; it may be necessary to copy this
behaviour, but testing on real sites must proceed before that. There could
also be a problem with the automatic lowering of font size, which Navigator
doesn't do, so any FONT SIZE = -n commands could make it too small. Again,
this needs testing on real sites.

'http://' is added to URLs with no protocol specified, unless they start with
'ftp.', in which case the new behaviour is to add 'ftp://'.

Choices code altered to do less error checking on components! They should be
able to be missing without raising errors. Referencing of the subwindow
array changed from *(subwindows + number) to subwindows[number].

Made trace_tag_name code look pretty...

reformat_useless_token now checks tagno is non-zero.

User Agent string setting now done through URL_GetURL, on a per-session
basis.

Ellipsis character removed from all Messages files, replaced with '...'.
There's little difference between the two in an outline font, and in System
font the latter looks much better. Smart quotes left in, as they look
better in all cases.

Didn't redraw browsers which would be immediately affected by a change to the Choices when 'Set' was used. Appropriate redraw calls added. Reversed decision to toe in the pane window by 8 OS units relative to the placeholder icon sides.

Changed some error handling in Choices, a little bit of reformatting, removed unnecessary tempstring in Main, and played about with the choices Res file objects.

Added run time RMEnsuring type behaviour for ColourDbox to save RMA space on start up of the browser.

Also added additional deregistering of events which I forgot to do last time :(

Renamed Symbols to syms and ensured it is CDir'ed.
Made Trace.c show tag_no field textually.
Ungreyed CJK entries in Encoding menu.
