Re: JavaScript workarounds in Arachne...
I've done similar, when the target of a script has a defined URL. Press F2 to edit page,
highlight URL inside JS, CTRL+C to copy to temp, exit editor, move to address input bar,
CTRL+V to paste URL and press enter. But the number of these types of JS pages are few.
Most JS contains operands to "write document if condition X is met" etc.

Ron,
FYI...16 bit SSL and JavaScript have been done in past! Windows 3.1 has Op
era as well as MS IE, probably others as well, but both of these I've used.
Yes, I have Win3.1 and I have used Opera (but not IE !!!!!!!).
I was under the impression that Opera was 32-bit. I stand corrected. :)
JS support doesn't work as well, mainly due to script sizes exceeding mem
ory allocation, as well as new function calls in later editions.
And that is getting worse - I read somewhere recently that JS is
getting extended. :(
In DOS, it may be only 32 bit code is available for SSL, don't have any ide
a on JavaScript. Never seen a DOS browser with JS support.
JS - no, neither have I.
But SSL - yep ! I have just been experimenting with calling
"Links -g" and Elinks from within Arachne - and they work just fine.
This gives Arachne a "helper" to deal with SSL pages. Links still has a
memory leak on my machine, but Elinks is performing exceptionally well.
I never could get the Lynx call to work, so I have replaced that
button on the "Save as" screen with a call for Elinks, and it is running
perfectly.
That's what I meant about work-arounds for Arachne SSL.
JS is another matter. I can get navigation and media hyperlinks from
inside JS sections using NEmedia, but I haven't looked any further than
that yet. (www.ausreg.com/nemedia/)
