IBrowse 2.3 & Amiga.org = BAD

Well, the only issue I had was that JPG's didn't display.  But that's a DT issue for me, I think.

Why aren't you using iBrowse's internal image decoders?? [/quote]


Well, that's how I started out by using IB's internal viewers.  But it only showed broken link images for all jpg's.  Gif's and png's showed just fine.  So I looked at the Ibrowse folder and looked around until I found the components for the internal viewer (don't remember where they were now) but all were listed except for jpg.  So I assumed it had something to do with the recent flurry over the jpg standard that it was not also included.  That's why I switched it to external viewer, and pointed it to the jpg datatype in my devs folder.  But that still didn't work.

Then I went to Aminet and ftp'd the akJPG datatype but everytime I lha'd it the file had corrupt data at the first half.  I even pulled it down again, but the same thing happened.  By that point I just gave up.

IBrowse 2.3 does have an external JPEG decoder. In the codecs directory, you should find the following files:

gif.codec
imagedecode.module
jpeg.codec
png.codec
xbm.codec

The external viewers aren't intended for rendering of inline elements.

Interesting.  I had the same problem with the original settings to use internal viewers.  It's funny, because I was thinking that there were only 4 files in the codec drawer when I looked, and you listing the files show there should be 5.  I'll check later when I get home to see.  But I never saw the jpg.codec, that's specifically what I went in there looking to find.  And it must have not been there because all pages with jpg's on them (ala the top Aorg banner) always showed a broken image.  That's the only reason I tried an external viewer to start with.
