Is the netsurf binary in usr/bin ?
Yes - it exists as a link to /usr/bin/netsurf-gtk which is also there.

Maybe ssl has something to do with my problem? I have not updated recently.

Just for farts and giggles, I took the Netsurf Pup to my local McD's to check on the free but unsecured wifi. Since I notice that Netsurf has problems with "script-buttons" I thought this might fail.

It did.

No "Accept" button appeared, and thus no connection. Everything else OK up to that point.

Same thing at a local Dunkin' (Donuts). So it remains a secure browser in a back-handed way. :wink: Now if we could get the author(s) to remove SSL3, TLS1.0, and TLS1.1 from the certs, it would pass muster with Qualys Client check.

Just visited the "new and improved" Classic (old-fashioned) Yahoo Mail. FF27 rendered this close to html, FF66 rendered properly, and Netsurf3.8 was a lot closer to FF66 than FF27.

And a polite bump... has anyone got connected to free-wifi, or home wifi, or network wifi with NS3.8?

This is copy paste of the results per jamesbond's request
Some aspects of the page are missing, notably the vunerability checks. What JB posted is very close to my FF66.0.5 results. Netsurf... not good IMHO.

It is a small and light browser with some Javascript capability.
I compiled versions of it in Wheezy and Stretch Puppies.

Correction: Couldn't on open SSL

I compiled 3.8 on puppy Lucid-528. I couldn't get the open SSL to make HTTPS function work.
It wouldn't render SVG graphics so I set it aside.

Right, Moose, I have the slackware 14.0 version of Netsurf3.8, and it works OOB on my AtomicPup-19 (Slacko5.7). But sadly, OpenSSL stuff included is VERY weak with many crackable keys. And SVG is a no-go... in fact, lack of handling it messes up webpages. But it is functional and small, just don't expect much unless you have a Raspberry_Pi.

PS: I tried the linux 3.9 version supplied in the forum... clicking on the binary a no-go. I don't know why.

If it did security in a way that "just works" I may have dug in to see about adding at least a gray box for where the SVG would have gone.

Hi all i have Bionic pup 64 trying to install NetSurf. after i click the Bionic64 installer file from http://smokey01.com/OscarTalks/netsurf- ... bionic.pet i get this dialogue box asking for a root password. (I don't have encryption or using fido etc so whats going on?) https://imagebin.ca/v/56Q2VflOusvS

this is preventing NetSurf from installing.
