me too. but the truth is, if it was implemented, there would be little difference (at least to the end user) between retrozilla and some actually functional browser that you would want to use, since sites like YouTube rely on HTML5 video and audio. it's sad :'(  . but maybe one day, retrozilla will spring back into existence like never before and actually implement these things. rn10950 apparently did want to make a RetroZilla 3.0 based on an updated gecko tho. wonder how that would have looked like.

since @ClassicNick provided a newer NSS port, I'm trying to fix/port it to VC7.1 and VC6 for retrozilla use.

 

EDIT: progress - VC7.1 works, VC6 needs more fixing:

in NT 3.51:

and in Win95:

EDIT2: VC6 port is finished. PR created: https://github.com/rn10950/RetroZilla/pull/68

Bin (suite): http://o.rthost.win/gpc/files1.rt/retrozilla-suite-tls13-20240526.7z

browser-only (rzbrowser): http://o.rthost.win/gpc/files1.rt/rzbrowser-tls13-20240526.7z

I can't test this presently because my capable (Windows) computers are offline. I can only imagine how amusing it must feel to have TLS 1.3 working with a browser capable of targeting Windows NT 3.51 and 95, and Visual C++ 6.0 SP5. Since I can't build K-Meleon, is it possible to use the RetroZilla codebase to build K-Meleon 1.5.4?

I don't have full code of K-Meleon 1.5.4 to build on, but I can build a shared and replace DLLs to make it work:

The DependencyWalker could help. It should work on Win95.

DependencyWalker can only help for missing APIs, it can't help on cases that API is here but failing on calling.

and also created a VC6 build for replacing NSS in Firefox 1.0 - 1.5 and K-Meleon 0.9-1.1: https://msfn.org/board/topic/185966-my-browser-builds-part-5/?do=findComment&comment=1266992

Thank you for doing that! I replaced the NSS files from my local Firefox 1.5 build, with your uploaded NSS files, and to my surprise, they did not cause the browser to crash due to me using a different version of Visual C++ than you did. I'm still trying to port NSS 3.42 beta to the Mozilla/Gecko 1.8.0 codebase. When I asked you how difficult it would be, it was because I got an error "plarena.h no such file or directory". Now I'm cherry picking code from RetroZilla's nsprpub directory to solve unresolved externals caused by NSS 3.42 beta. I also noticed you mentioned K-Meleon 0.8 - 1.1. What is your favourite version of K-Meleon?

since VC5 and VC6 uses same runtime (MSVCRT.DLL) so it won't crash.

1.5 or later since they have real tabs, not layers.

BTW I wonder if you can upload the sources of your 38ESR-VC2010?
