PWB address bar limitation

Post by Ed Cherry »

I've also just sent an email to Support@TeamSoftwareSolutions.com

I've just discovered that the address bar will only accept URLs no longer than the visible portion of the address bar. Any attempt to type a URL that is longer than the address bar fails once the window if full.

This is particularly noticeable if you have "AddressBarBreak=False" in your PWB.INI file, which puts the address bar on the same line as the toolbar buttons.

Hopefully this will be fixed in a future release. In the meantime, I will have to change my config file to "AddressBarBreak=True" to allow longer URLs. I had it set to False to give more screen real estate over to viewing web pages.

I have made the changes to PWB v2.05 revision 2 beta, and PWB v2.06 beta, to allow the Address bar to scroll when the length of the URL is longer then the combo box.

Thank you for pointing this limitation out.
