    Thanks so much guys, especially @VistaLover, great detective work! So, it appears that 360Chome 13.5, which I thought would be pretty much OK at least in the short term, already isn't! How would Proxomitron fix this? Certainly using ProxHTTPSProxy seems to make no difference to the problem.

    Interestingly it doesn't appear to be a JavaScript problem, which is what it looks like I agree. If I switch JavaScript completely off in Firefox 102 and go to the site it still looks fine, apart from a few missing images. So the poor formatting doesn't appear to be caused by a JavaScript failure. Curiouser and curiouser........

    Yes, thanks for that. This is off-topic here of course, but I've been very impressed how the developer of Otter has stuck with it all this time. Its updates are few and far between, its user forum is dead, and it seems to now be completely just one person's project. It was of course specifically intended to be a replacement for my much beloved Presto Opera, as was Vivaldi, but the latter went the Chromium route of course, and that was the end of it as far as XP was concerned. It never occurred to me that the LNER site might work in Otter, and when @AstroSkipper pointed it out, I was amazed! As far as this thread is concerned, I'm more concerned that the site won't work in 360Chrome 13.5, and it's the first site that I've seen completely fail to render properly in that browser. I can only assume that the site now needs a Chromium version newer than 86, or there is some JavaScript incompatibility. It's not a site I use very often, but it was certainly fine the last time I used it, so they must have done some code changes. Looking at it in Firefox 102 it looks to me exactly as it did before, so it hasn't actually been redesigned, something's just been done in the background. Can anyone see it correctly in any version of 360Chrome?

    This thread is specifically for discussing the Vista extended kernel. Discussion about other drivers is off topic and should be done in dedicated threads please.

    Thank you so much for that! I've actually had Otter Browser installed for years, and I've always kept it up to date, although I never actually use it! It never occurred to me to even try it with the LNER site, but as you say, it works (almost)! It's not quite right, I can't get rid of the cookie warnings for instance, but it's not the horrible mess that it is on 360Chrome. It didn't surprise me that it had failed on Firefox 52.9 ESR, as more and more sites are starting to have problems on that, but not working on 360Chrome 13.5 was a big surprise, and quite worrying! I guess it's a JavaScript problem, but I'm not expert enough on site coding to diagnose that.

    POSReady 2009 still going strong on the self-service tills in my local Marks and Spencer!

    Thanks, this is very strange. I wonder what they've done to make it so incompatible? Annoying, because I can't use it on any browser on XP now.
  8. Dave-H
    Could someone do me a favour and check out this site for me (it's nothing dodgy, I promise!)? https://www.lner.co.uk/ It's always worked fine before, but now on XP in Firefox 52.9 ESR, and more worryingly in 360Chrome 13.5, it's just a mess. It's the site of one of the major rail operators here in the UK. It works fine in Firefox 102 on Windows 10. It looks to me as if the JavaScript isn't working, and I'd just like a confirmation that it isn't just me with the problem! Using or not using a local proxy server makes no difference. Thanks, Dave.

    It is a known issue. It broke when an update was rolled out to restore the missing country flags! Hopefully it will be fixed soon, the forum owner @xperis on the case.
  10. Dave-H
    Known issue, it's being looked at.

    Thanks, I tried a few timezone spoofing extensions, and they all say my timezone and date and time are correct. None of them made any difference to the history discrepancy. I had mentioned it to @NotHereToPlayGames/ArcticFoxie a while ago, and he thought it was just a bug, which I guess isn't ever going to be fixed.

    I'm just surprised that Firefox 52.9 ESR's built-in certificates still work when it dates from 2018, but I'm not complaining!
  13. Dave-H
    I would have thought that the browser would use the system settings for the time zone. There is no setting for it in the browser as far as I can see. One perhaps related thing I have noticed, at least in version 13.5, is that the browser history seems to be a day behind. It always shows the previous day as 'today' if you look at the history (Ctrl+H) which means that there's no way of seeing the sites visited previously on the current day, you have to wait until the following day to see them!
  14. Dave-H
    As said, already reported. It looks as if the flag images are simply missing, everything else is working. Perhaps they come from an external server which is down at the moment.
  15. Dave-H
    That's strange. Perhaps you're seeing cached versions?
  16. Dave-H
    It's fine on good old soldiering on Firefox 52.9 ESR too!
  17. Dave-H
    Thanks, I guess I won't worry about it if nothing can be done about it! As I said earlier, it's fine if I connect via ProxHTTPSProxy. I don't like the speed hit if I do that though.
  18. Dave-H
    Yes, they have gone off. I'll chase it with @xper the forum owner.
  19. Dave-H
    The connection is like that if I use a direct connection to the net, i.e. no proxy. If I switch to using the IE proxy, which is via ProxHTTPSProxy, it's fine, but the proxy connection slows down the connection considerably, so I don't use that configuration in 360Chrome. In the case of MSFN, it looks as if it doesn't like the fact that there is apparently insecurely delivered content on the page. All my system certificates are up to date.

    Thanks both! I hadn't realised that I had to remove '--kiosk-printing' from 360loader.ini as well, it works fine now! Strangely the Print Preview dialogue appears the other way around for me, with the preview on the left and the menu selections on the right! This might be something which changed in version 13.x of course. Cheers, Dave.

    I use @NotHereToPlayGames/ArcticFoxie's version 13.5, and I can confirm that WhatsApp Web works fine if you do the ini file modification. I happened to notice that Print Preview is also disabled in the ini file. I removed that entry as well, as I find Print Preview very useful, but it still doesn't work. There appears to be no menu item for it, and when I print, the preview window seems to pop up for a fraction of a second, and then it immediately starts printing. Has anyone actually got Print Preview to work, in any version of 360Chrome?
  22. Dave-H
    There are rather large line spacings in quite a few places on my 360Chrome, and on Firefox 52.9. I suspect it's the problem the forum software has always had, that it double spaces if you just hit ENTER. You need to do SHIFT+ENTER to do a single line feed.
  23. Dave-H
    Good point, I completely overlooked that!
  24. Dave-H
    I still would never use the microphone input on the computer unless there was no alternative. The level from a microphone is very much lower than from a line level source, so you would have to have the source level set much lower to avoid overloading. Also the microphone input could have equalisation on it to suit a microphone, whereas the line/aux input should be 'flat'. Much better all round to maintain the quality of the original.
  25. Dave-H
    I wouldn't feed line/headphone level audio into a microphone input, it will probably overload it and the result will be extremely distorted. The aux/line input on the computer should be fine.
