Hi CNK
I was using a standard firefox built for arm7l with no changes to javascript nor any ad blockers running etc etc.
hi GNUser
I read your link...it does have some similar feature....but I did not bookmark all the other sites that I have been to.
It does not happen at all github type sites. I do agree the web browser is a little dated built in 2020
....but as I said ....epiphany and chromium show the page correctly

I will look to make a get script as per curaga suggestion for arm32 first and then look at 64 bit.
I am trying to avoid confusing my brain by swapping sdcards as I have only the one set of build scripts. I know thats wrong but I was avoiding arm32 until just recently.

trivia
looking at arm32 for RPi OS I can see browsers for :
dillo firefox-ESR epiphany (v 3.38.2-1) midori and netsurf-gtk
I have no plans to make get scripts for all mentioned. But...it occurs to me, it might save Juanito time if I make a get script for epiphany....
I refuse dillo as no javascript which I need at certain sites
and for time reasons refuse firefox/midori and netsurf
I am aware of some updates coming and I have my own updates and some other stuff we discussed
thanks for reading

bad news for arm6 users of this browser when accepted. Do you agree?
snippet from an executable script in the download....I accept it won't work as is as we have no zenity but I mod it just for uname -m
--- Quote ---if [ "$(uname -m)" == "armv6l" ]; then
zenity --error --no-wrap --text="Chromium is not supported on $(cat /proc/device-tree/model | sed 's/ Rev .*//')"
exit 0
fi
--- End quote ---
I do not have an arm6l but me thinks I need to change this to arm6 test right up the top of the get script so users don't waste their time trying a download?
Paul_123:
We just won’t put it in the armv6 repo.

slightly offtopic to subject but there is an extension called whatfont that can be installed in FF and chrome*
it does not work for me on arm8 for FF-perf YMMV but it works well in chromium-browser.....
Naturally I am still thinking about adding some previous TC64 or new to arm font packages. Not relevant to submission but relevant to testing the browser.
so far, I am a sans guy. And leaning towards Noto Sans. It has a monster of a range of weights and types
