I have built Amaya 2.1 on Solaris 2.5.1 with EGCS-1.1.2. The build was successful. On bringing up the manual /home/hgs/AMAYA2/Amaya/doc/amaya/Manual.html I had white text on a white hackground. My foreground color is set to white, background to black. I suspect this is due to the foreground colour not being specified in the document: <head> <style type="text/css"> BODY { background-color : #FFFFFF }</style> <title>Using Amaya</title> </head> <body lang="en"> etc On browsing my home page http://www.eng.dmu.ac.uk/~hgs/ Amaya crashes with *** Thot: Irrecoverable error *** The first time it did that I checked with the validator http://validator.w3.org/ and I had a typo <ATRONG>...</STRONG> instead of <STRONG>...</STRONG>. The response still seemed a little severe. I have corrected this, the page validates OK now, but Amaya still crashes. I wonder if there is a cache holding the old page? Looking at that manual page with Netscape, I cannot see anything on command line options to flush any such cache, or to increase diagnostic output. The coloured popup legends on the button bar seem a bit bigger (thanks) but they are still cream on yellow, and I cannot see anything to set the font size or colour for those. The colour "palette" doesn't seem to have an "apply" button, only a "done" button, unlike the Character Style and Format menu items. There seems therefore to be no way to override the colours imposed by the document. Thank you, Hugh hgs@dmu.ac.uk
