</span>You're stuck if developers can't reproduce the problem.<br>
<br>
You can help the developers; differential diagnosis procedure relies<br>
on tests of the software components.<br>
<br>
Browse is a wrapper around WebKit. On the XO-4 you can find a WebKit<br>
browser that isn't Browse. /usr/libexec/webkitgtk3/GtkLauncher<br>
<br>
If the problem occurs with that, then it is not a problem with Browse<br>
at all, and you would need to speak with the WebKit people.<br>
<br>
And their first response might be to upgrade, which brings us back to<br>
the rainbow pooing unicorn problem in devel@ and support-gang@<br>

If you can't read HTML, drive wget, and host the files, find someone<br>
on XSCE to help you?<br>
