AmigaOS 4: Web-Browser OWB 2.8
Jörg Strohmayer has published a new version of his port of the Origyn Web Browser for AmigaOS 4. Changes since the last release:
- Fixed WINDOWWIDTH and WINDOWHEIGHT
- Implemented popup menus for <select> with up to 25 entries
- JavaScript can open windows now
- Implemented statusbar text
- Title and URL are updated now
- Built current version of libxml2. It seems most of the OWB crashes were caused by bugs in the old libxml2, for example with the new version OWB doesn't crash on the ACID3 test.
- Implemented JavasCript alert requester
- Added charset support to the clipboard functions. When using cut or copy it writes the UTF-8 CSET chunk now, for pasting it supports US-ASCII, ISO-8859-1 and UTF-8 and replaces unknown chars in all other charsets by '?', if there is no CSET chunk it's treated as ISO-8859-1.
- Added iconify support
- Updated to SVN revision 472

Music-disc: Planet Hively for AmigaOS 3
"Orta" has ported the music-"disk" Planet Hively to AmigaOS 3. The 68k-version is based on SDL. AHI, a graphic board and a JIT-emulator (a real 68060 is much too slow) are required.
An AGA-version is also planned but it needs some optimations.
