I guess this is another instance of me assuming that the CVS server 
recognises certain extensions as binary (gif, jar, etc).  I'll try re-adding 
them as binary.

As a side note, I found that the current build.xml will copy the images to 
build/classes after it makes the jar, causing the images to be missing from 
the jar for the first build after a clean.  I have patched the build.xml and 
will commit it soon.

Thanks.

Hmmm.  This is currently OK for URLs opened from other parts of Logitest - 
these URLs are opened by AbstractBrowser and the HTML is then given to 
CalpaHTMLPane.  The only part that would fail is if you were submitting forms 
or clicking links within the CalpaHTMLPane.

For the web sites I am testing I found JEditorPane basically unusable for 
clicking on links anyway - any links inside tables were rendedered as links, 
but didn't respond to clicks.

Long term I think we need to find a better (preferrably with source 
code) HTML renderer than both JEditorPane and CalpaHTMLPane which both seem 
to be limitted.  In the shorter term maybe we need to let the user switch 
between the two so that they can choose to have either recording functions or 
HTTPS browsing functions.  What are your thoughts?

It can be added to the config, but it is fairly rough at the moment and only 
has limitted usefulness.  Part of what is lacking is a way to display the 
differences between the reference and captured documents.  The only diff code 
I can find out there is GPL which has the 'viral' effect when you add it to 
your own code.

I noticed this but thought it had always been this way and couldn't really 
understand how I could have broken it.  Anyway, I will have a look at it.

Can you give me a stacktrace?  It seems to work fine for me.
