Donation before downloading? Sounds to me like "buying the cat in the sack"...
To me Epistula would only be of use if I could use it with AIM/ICQ as I use no other chatsys. And you don't want people to register with MS and then with you just to get TOC? :)
And that there are no bugreports on the current beta does only mean that I did not test it.

CU,
Mario

Well that's up to you, of course you will be able to use TOC when it's released as stable and usable but until then I'm afraid it's an advantage of having donated to be able to access the betas.

More so that you need to be registered to be able to use the bug tracker part of the website.

Guess you'll just have to wait until TOC is released as non-beta.

Sorry

Ok, so I'll wait.
There is enough to do testing OS4 beta anyway... :)

If people dont know the server to TOC here it is.
aimexpress.oscar.aol.com and the port is correct at 5190.

Tested and the TOC shows my ICQ friends as UIN numbers.

When i try to disconnect MSN or TOC plugin the gui says disconnecting and then freezes. Do others get this ? Im curious as Slash doesnt get this and i dont see anyone complaining ;) I put a bug on bugtracker.

EDIT: I reconnected most stuff in my computer after summer vacation and i got more crashes. Even when trying to connect to msn/icq. So i reconnected everything in my computer(hardware) again and the crashes were gone. Even when i disconnect/quit epistula now it doesnt crash anymore. Strange that other programs didnt crash. Oh yes Mplayer would freeze too. So it was probably some bad connection somewhere, too hot or .... i dont know. I will test more this week and see. For now it works great ;)

EDIT2: And the next day freeze when connecting to MSN. I go really nuts as i dunno where the problem is. If its hardware other programs would also freeze ? So im splitted here. Dunno where the problem is. OS4, Epistula bug, HW.
Ill just follow the updates and see if something changes the behaviour.

EDIT3: I changed VCORE from 1.79 to lower and it worked. I changed to 1.84 and
it worked. I changed back to 1.79 again and i have used epistula for days without freezes. Probably something random as i still use same VCORE 1.79 on my A1G4XE 933mhz downgraded to 800mhz. So probably some connection somewhere in my hardware or something in OS or epistula that is picky. All this test didnt make me nearer to what the problem is. Some have freezes but most people dont.
As it works now ill just shut up or maybe the freezing man comes visit me.

EDIT4: I wanted to test the mailbox funktion and typed in all info. I rerun epistula and freeze. Changed all possible VCORE and still freeze so i belive we can count out the VCORE part. I deleted the xml prefs and configed from beginning. The only stuff i enable is
"Display customised contact names?"
Use MasonIcons AISS Toolbar Images?
Enable Emoticons in Instant Messages?

Nothing else. This way it works for me. This is so random i dont know where the problem is.

EDIT5: Oh yes, i come home and fired up epistula. Freeze after freeze. Had to disable the masonicons and no freeze. Question for how long ? hehe

So my last word is. Im not 1% sure of anything anymore. My system works ok no freezes, only this random with epistula.

@Kicko

I installed the latest version and get total system freezes after trying to log on to
MSN. Epistula isn't usable at all in my system anymore. The previous version
worked fine. Starting the main application or using the prefs is no problem.

I get no crash so Grim Reaper logs isn't available, the whole system just freezes.
Epistula doesn't complain about any old or missing MUI classes. So I guess this
isn't the problem?

EDIT: Btw I did a manual install by copying the new files to their places.

Does a scroll bar appear if you make your browser window smaller? All other WEB pages are shown with a scrollbar in the IBrowse window if the window is smaller than the WEB page. I can see the bottom of the page if I resize my IBrowse window to full screen height but that shouldn't be necessary. I tried your WEB page with AWeb PPC and the scroll bar in the AWeb is always full size (can't be used to scroll down the page), no matter how small I resize the window. It's as though IBrowse & AWeb always think that your page fits in the visible window no matter how small the window is.

I am on broadband and I am experiencing the same problem as you and Xenic.
My IBrowse page ends just before:

EDIT:
I forgot to try AWeb so I just did. AWeb shows an additional line:

Nothing below this line though.

None of the three show the sliders for an over width page.

I'd agree with you, but then we'd both be wrong.

@All

A new beta of Epistula has been released (normal place); this version fixes the problems with the multiple plugins and settings.

Regarding the website, I've got the HTML tag scrolling="no" set so that's why the scroll bar doesn't appear. I assumed everyone ran a decent resolution these days. Saying that, the SQL database is on another server so maybe that is why the page is displaying incorrectly after that line.

Regardless, I find it extremely difficult, time consuming, annoying and a complete waste of my time trying to build Amiga friendly websites, the lack of CSS is a serious problem.

I will keep at it though but the website is not a high priority when I'm limited in such extreme ways.

I'm off to Paris now so nothing will be done for the next week or so, but I'll have a fresh look at things when I return.

Thanks to people for using the bug tracker, it's helping a lot!

I've never had any problems with your web site using IBrowse. The lefthand frame can easily be navigated with the scroll wheel.
Excellent to see a new beta is out btw. I'll give it a spin this weekend.

@samo79

You've to log in to the bugtracker to access the betas. Donate some dineros to Slash and you'll be granted access. You know it makes sense.

Thanks Slash for the update and have a good time.

@Monoxyde

Ah ok
