[Edbrowse-dev] [Fwd: Bug#647226: edbrowse: button press does not work anymore on a page using a lot of javascript]

[Jean-Philippe MENGUAL <mengualjeanphi@free.fr>]

Hi,

Debian is reported the following problem (see below). Could you tell me
how I've to consider it please? Should I report it somewhere (a
bugtracker)? Should I answer something to the user? Note that you can
answer to the bug yourself freely if you want, with a mail on:
647226@bugs.debian.org

In Debian, we haven't changed anything in edbrowse. I can give you any
additional info if needed (e.g. build options, etc.). Maybe I can ask
for some debug info (gdb, valgrind, etc.)? But I need your help as I
don't know to use this tools.

Thanks for your help,

Regards,


Jean-Philippe MENGUAL

Sujet: Bug#647226: edbrowse: button press does not work anymore on a
page using a lot of javascript
Date: Mon, 31 Oct 2011 21:26:00 +0100

Package: edbrowse
Version: 3.4.7-1
Severity: normal


Hello,

Surfing http://www.bibnet.de with a text oriented browsers is very
difficult.  The site makes heavy use of javascript and frames. The example
further down fails with edbrowse_3.4.7-1 (unstable). When pressing button
'i1*' (<Weiter> = continue) or 'i2*' (<Abbrechen> = abort) nothing
happens. The same example succeeds with edbrowse_3.4.1-1+b1 (stable).


Example with edbrowse_3.4.7-1:

---snip---
$ edbrowse
Sorry, language de_de.u is not implemented
no ssl certificate file specified; secure connections cannot be verified
edbrowse ready
e http://www.bibnet.de/wwwopac/woload.asp?DB=ALL
no trailing newline

b

/Abbrechen/
<Weiter>|<Abbrechen>
i1?
submit B1
i2?
button B2
i2*
---snip---


Thank you for this helpful tool,
bye,

Christian
