    PowerFox - new web browser for Leopard on PowerPC!

    Unfortunately it looks like Google thinks the JavaScript engine is too slow to be legitimate, opening the browser console shows reCAPTCHA timing out. I have also been able to reproduce this in MachFox, so it seems like we will require a significantly optimized JavaScript JIT to have a chance at...

    Works perfectly fine here.

    PowerFox - new web browser for Leopard on PowerPC!

    From what I can tell, the jsshell test suite was not run. In fact, the developer disabled ION because of what I assume to be crashes that the AI could not resolve.

    PowerFox - new web browser for Leopard on PowerPC!

    This JIT was done entirely by Claude AI. I am very hesitant to incorporate changes from such a thing, as it just sounds like a major problem waiting to happen. Regarding any problems with Google, I have personally not experienced any suspicious activity checks, nor have my internal testing...

    PowerFox - new web browser for Leopard on PowerPC!

    I've released 26.2.2 which addresses stability issues when running the browser on G3 systems: https://github.com/Jazzzny/powerfox-browser/releases/tag/26.2.2-tiger

    @ClassicHasClass Thank you again for all of your work - theres simply no way I could have figured out stuff like this on my own!

    I've shipped PowerFox 26.2.1 for Tiger: Builds are available for G3, G4, G4e, G5, and i386. https://github.com/Jazzzny/powerfox-browser/releases/tag/26.2.1-tiger

    PowerFox - new web browser for Leopard on PowerPC!

    Yeah, I’ve imported that library as part of the 10.4 port. Thanks again for keeping the code clean! I've pushed my initial changes to https://github.com/Jazzzny/platform-uxp/tree/tiger if you want to take a look for whatever reason. I still have to solve 1-2 minor issues to reach Leopard...

    Yeah, the 10.5 builds built with the 10.5 SDK suffered from the gradient clipping issue. I'll try again now that that the 10.4 changes are in DrawTargetCG, hopefully they'll do something.

    PowerFox - new web browser for Leopard on PowerPC!

    Okay, sorry, I lied - its 10.5-exclusive. I fixed the last major 10.4 issue, and gradient clipping works perfectly here! I'll see how to get whatever fixed it ported up to 10.5, but for now, this is working and looking great on 10.4.

    PowerFox - new web browser for Leopard on PowerPC!

    Yes, I'll try to get something out soon. Still a few blockers that I need to deal with though, mainly DrawTargetCG doesn't seem to like like certain draw requests for whatever reason, even pages like about:support cause it to fault in SVG code. Speaking of DrawTargetCG, could I pick your brain...

    Fiddled around a bit with HIToolbox to get it to match the HIG a bit better.

    PowerFox - new web browser for Leopard on PowerPC!

    @ClassicHasClass I've ported down to 10.4 using your patches, all code written by hand. Thanks again for TenFourFox and (especially keeping the if(0) defines)! Most of the patches I was able to copy-paste.

    PowerFox - new web browser for Leopard on PowerPC!

    Just FYI, I fixed this several weeks ago - it seems like he was using my initial build. The problem was related to these GPUs not supporting FBOs which caused the basic compositor to freak out.

    PowerFox - new web browser for Leopard on PowerPC!

    Would there be any fundamental blockers if I used the 10.5 SDK? Obviously it would hide any symbol problems that arise, but I’d like to not compromise the 10.5 experience too much, as we’re able to use CoreUI and have OMTC there. Would probably be wise to get the browser off the ground using the...

    PowerFox - new web browser for Leopard on PowerPC!

    I want to ask, is there anything that needs major work for Tiger apart from widget code? I was hesitant to even attempt work on Tiger as some of your blog posts from ~10 years ago seemed to suggest major problems with a bunch of Mozilla's subsystems when building for Tiger.

    Thank you for all of your work on TenFourFox, the 10.5 port would have been outright impossible without it.
