A very useful browser. Thanks for the V1.08 update.

I really like working with your browser. One request, if it is possible. Would there be any way using sB or JavaScript to capture images on a page? I often search for free clip art or wallpaper, and I can do that nicely with your browser and Google images, but I don't see a way to save them.

Thanks

The contextual menu doesn't show in my browser (like in safari) so I'm not sure if "save as" can be turned on. I've tried a few JavaScript calls to mess with the contextual menu, but nothing's working yet. I'll keep looking into it and see what I can learn (I'm a real newbie trying stuff like this). Glad you find the browser useful.

With an iPad (iOS 9.2.1) only the url apple.com will load and the SYSTEM_EXT_IP$() ="" even when there is a valid connection and I can browse around the apple.com website.

Yes, this is a known problem with Apple restriction in BROWSER object. It will be solved in version 5.2.

Thanks for letting me know about the problem. I haven't upgraded my iOS yet.

HTTP GETDIM command can save an image. Documentation for this command contains the example of saving an image from the web.

Thanks. That's something I overlooked. Perhaps I could make a list of images on the loaded web page then and let the user select from the list to save the image using HTTP GETDIM.
