Infinite loop

[pribis]

Compiled the master from scratch. -v 3.7.4 on Ubuntu bionic: Linux brian-ubuntu 4.18.0-25-generic #26~18.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Thu Jun 27 07:28:31 UTC 2019 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux.

When I open a site that has a search feature and search for a phrase, edbrowse gets stuck in a loop, reloading the page over and over again. Eventually the site blocks me unless I hit CTL-c.
Ex output:

Well you didn't say what website you were on. Let me just guess that it's google. If yes then this is a long known bug, and sadly, I've been too lazy to find or fix it. That's because the work-around is so easy. nojs = google.com And while you're at it: nojs = googleadservices.com nojs = googletagservices.com nojs = googletagmanager.com nojs = googlesyndication.com nojs = google-analytics.com Karl Dahlke

You hit the nail on the head. It also happened at another site "theopedia.com", but that one also uses js for its search, so I'm guessing the same solution.

Thanks for the response.

Also regarding google search, you don't get the h3 headings on the results of the search, unless you lie to it and tell it you are a standard browser. And I can hardly get by without those headings. Hard to believe I only implemented them a year ago. Anyways, I have agent = Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; Trident/5.0; SLCC2; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; .NET CLR 3.5.30729; .NET CLR 3.0.30729; Media Center PC 6.0; .NET4.0C; .NET4.0E) Then in my init function, or in the google search function, the proper ua command to make it look like I am IE7. Then I get the headings. Now how weird is that?! Karl Dahlke
