That would be great!I might add a "-danger" command-line switch to be able to bypass security requirements.

indeed. My office computer is managed by IT. So I don't get the security updates immediately, but only after the updates have been checked.forumuser wrote:That would be great!I might add a "-danger" command-line switch to be able to bypass security requirements.

Re: HTML5 Browser
I encountered an issue with the current version 0.63.0.150, which can for instance be reproduced lke this
But then I wanted to go back to Google's search results page by pressing [Alt]+[<--].
This is not possible, Forkle keeps showing me the "DISALLOWED PROTOCOL: HTTP" page.
- Open https://www.google.com/
- Search for "MarkdownPad" (without the quotes)
- Google will show several hits.
- Click at the first result, which is the link to the website of that program
(http://markdownpad.com/). - Then Forkle will show "DISALLOWED PROTOCOL: HTTP".

Re: HTML5 Browser
In version 0.63.0.150, there is a bug with pressing [Ctrl]+[F]:
Ideally, the [F] key has to be pressed very briefly. Otherwise there will be multiple instances of the find dialog above each other. Sometimes the program is even hanging then.

Re: HTML5 Browser
With Forkle 0.63.0.150, displaying the PurBasic forum and then pressing [Alt]+[Enter] shows the following result here (Windows 10, DPI 125% if that matters):
I don't think that showing the black bars is intended.

Re: HTML5 Browser
@Little John: Thanks for the detailed bug reports!
Can you try the latest build, which should address them? Note that I could not reproduce the Ctrl+F bug on my system, so please let me know if it is still present. Also, note that the fix for the first bug is just a quick workaround, until I have time to improve the entire error message workflow.

Re: HTML5 Browser
On the following page, there is a series of pictures (scroll a bit down):

With Firefox, it looks like this:
With Forkle 0.63.0.195, it looks like this:
The two arrows are missing. Clicking at the places where the arrows should be has the desired effect, though.

Re: HTML5 Browser
Hmm.. Can't reproduce this. I do get the arrows in Forkle just fine. Could be DPI related? I will add it to my issue list.Little John wrote:On the following page, there is a series of pictures (scroll a bit down):

Just as a reminder, Forkle supports a good portion of the full HTML5 spec but not everything. So some specific sites may fail to render. However in my (limited) testing, heise.de appears to work fine.

Re: HTML5 Browser
The issue does not seem to be DPI related. It appears on my private PC (Windows 10) with Forkle at all tested resolutions: DPI 100%, 125% and 150%. Same problem here with Internet Explorer 11. No problem here with Firefox (as shown), Edge and Chrome.
This problem does not occur with Forkle on my PC at work (Windows 10).

I would suggest checking if font download is enabled in your Internet Options for the Internet Zone:Little John wrote:The issue does not seem to be DPI related.

Re: HTML5 Browser
A new release (0.64.0.224) is available, with the following noteworthy changes.
Forkle can now be made to bypass patch-level security checks. To do so, simply rename the executable to forkle_nsc.exe before starting it.
Again, this is not recommended - proceed only if you know what you are doing and have strong security measures already in place.
Note that this may become a command-line argument in a future version.
A new shortcut (introduced in the previous release actually) is Ctrl+Shift+Q, which instantly terminates all active Forkle instances.
