Just when I thought it was safe to use OWB 3.12 exclusively, it crashed while closing the Smilies page on amiga.org. I can reproduce this crash about 6 times out of 10.
Reply to a post, click on the (more...) smilies link below the text window. it does not matter if you actually click on a smilie on the smilies page click on the Close button at the bottom of the smilies page.

I was going to report this too. But somebody had reported it before me. OWB opens that smileys page in the same tab so there's nothing to close actually. I guess that might be the problem.

Nice work, - like the steady updates.... ...but I had to file a bug report on os4depot on a crash that happens everytime I try to visit this site: http://www.gesunda.com/sv/MTB_North
I also cannot fill in my time report cards at my employer adecco.se. I can log in and everything but when I try to access my weekly time report card I just get a page saying "Error" and a "Back" button that doesn't work. That site uses iframes and JS quite a lot. Something is wrong there anyway and I don't know what
I hate needing to use a PC for this seemingly simple task. Perhaps it's simply a matter of spoofing? The page may look for "known" browsers..? But then it should complain earlier I think, not letting me log in or anything.
Actually, lack of spoofing prevented me from entering a site recently. Trying IBrowse spoofing as FF1.5 let me in and it worked fine which was unexpected on such a site (can't remember which now)

It is not possible to click on the "Log me automatically .." Checkbox. This didnt work in any OWB version. But it seems to be a normal <input>-metatag?:
<span class="gen"> Log me automatically each visit: <input class="post" type="checkbox" name="autologin" /></span>
Is there a change I could make in settings which would keep the OWB window from resizing itself way beyond the limits of the screen?
Newegg.com and motors.ebay.com do this on a regular basis. Once this happens, it becomes nearly impossible to move the text with the horizontal scrollbar, and grabbing the window to move it so I can get the resize gadget takes many attmepts before I can bring the window back down to size again.
With these settings, I have the bookmark window running to the right of the OWB screen and fill the width of the display, and leave my bottom docky exposed.

The User-Agent can be changed by setting the environment variable OWB_USER_AGENT, use something like

If it still happens with OWB version 3.12 the only way is disabling tabs and using multiple windows instead. (Until the next AmigaOS update with newer version of clicktab.gadget is released.)

Are you sure it doesn't work? Just because you can't see the black X on a black background doesn't mean it's not there
I'm not sure what you're exactly asking but I have the same display as you... are these settings provided already or have you put them in? seems to me these aren't proper settings... perhaps only settings available in your screen prefs listing are truely supported...
i.e.
1440 x 900
If I'm way of the beaten track, never mind then

[CTRL] + any [Amiga] - allows to drag a window by clicking anywhere in it.
[CTRL] + any [Alt] - allows to resize a window by clicking anywhere on one of its four sides (for horizontal or vertical resizing) or corners (for resizing on both axes simultaneously).

I think you are. The size of the window does not have to match the resolution of the screen (it doesn't even have to be smaller, but that's another story).
You can put (more or less) whatever you want as window size.
apart from the resize issue with Tabs my chief niggle is lack of a download progress bar or am I missing something.
I developed the same quarrel with OS4.1 when trying to copy via USB a near 4GB file. I did not succeed and had difficulty deciding whether or not to abort, or had it quit?, but that's a separate matter.

Understood for sure, I just think it's a little perculiar to have weird figures in your individual settings for applications when you can just drag the bottom right gadget anyway...
i.e.
I have the various browsers all open 1024x768 on my 1680x1050 display which is an ample size for most webpages
To have things positioned so precisely for your cpu experience to me is far too anal... heh... It's bit like what offline readers were to BBSs... half the fun was logging into seperate boards etc, if you needed an offline reader it stopped being fun and just turned into an information highway... yuck

I got tired of opening the bookmark window everytime I wanted to go to another regular page. So I keep it open all the time as a tall skinny window next to the OWB display window. The position leaves the screen title bar and my bottom docky usable.
I guess one person's anal is another person's convenient. (or aesthetic, or whatever.) Screen grab
Besides, it's Amiga. . . we're actually ABLE to do things like this easily, so why not?

edit: added screen grab

Hey not fair, how can I argue that?
