(French) accents and & in URL #12
Comments
Thanks for reporting on how your site performs! Currently accented characters get replaced with their not-accented versions. I'm planning to support a wider variety of characters in the future. |
The major issue is just html entities. I'm using that because of no support of UTF-8 in IE3. But MicroWeb don't pay attention to that. I'm making an other version with only the accented characters, and where I convert these to entites if necessary I'm waiting the "version 0.53" 🙂 |
Version 2.0 now supports tables and a subset of accented characters. The URL you shared is no longer working so unfortunately I couldn't test with your site. Let me know if it displays correctly now :) |
Yes it's true, I moved my site into http://sjarb.fr since my last post 😅 it's midnight here in France, I have no time to test now |
Hi all, I discover this incredible project by the webmaster of a famous French retro informatic forum, Win3x.org.
I've installed MicroWeb under PC-DOS V/7.0 (Japanese version of PC-DOS 2000) to have all DOS Web Browsers in the same VM (under 86box, Pentium MMX/166, 32 MB RAM, CL-GD 5480, PC-Net ISA 0x300 IRQ3), and I report some issues I've encounter.
1° HTML entities like
à
(à) or others, can't display. I'm sad to not see French accents on my website http://winjoy.sjarb.fr (the same for Greek letters to a lesser extent)2° I think,
<table>
is not supported yet, because the one I use for the header seems not work here. The cells are displayed one below the other. The float CSS can help when implemented3° When I try to use JavaScript, MicroWeb don't display anything
4° WINJOY is a verifed XHTML 4.0 Transitional site, but to do that, I'm foced to use an HTML entity for & instead, because I'm using parameters in URLs, but, as MicroWeb don't support these, it tries to access to the page without replace the entity by a real &. So I've to manually replace it in the search bar
My site looks pretty well without any major change except JavaScript, that's awesome !
That's all for today, thanks for your good work (^_^)
