Summary 0002558: Timeouts when submitting data via multi-line text input icons
Revision 2018-04-21 10:31 by Vincent Sanders
Description Netsurf has started failing to submit data of more than an arbitrary length (between 1300 and 1500 characters) via multi-line text input icons on the site fanfiction.net. I've observed the same behaviour on three different forms so far (submitting posts to the site forums, sending PMs and editing documents previously uploaded to the site) - the transmission simply hangs and eventually results in an "This request took too long to process, it has been timed out by the server" error. Smaller amounts of text still work as before.

This is presumably the result of some change in the site coding, as it stopped working overnight and with no change to the version of Netsurf used. Issue initially observed around 7-8 August.
