    Hola Todos!

    There are some areas that, when I go online, it gives me the following error: "! JavaScript /sbbs/mods/../web/lib/msgslib.ssjs line 55: out of memory"
    They are areas that have a lot of messages. How can i fix this?

    you could try increasing the JavaScriptMaxBytes and JavaScriptContextStack in sbbs.ini and see if that helps.

    I also like more webv4 but with it I have not been able to put it in LATIN-1. Here in Spain we use LATIN-1, which is ISO8859-1 (or -15). That makes the tildes, e±es and umlauts come out well for all users in Spain. On the other hand, the Runemaster website has been able to make the tildes, e±es and umlauts come out well.

    webv4 doesn't tell the browser to use any particular encoding as far as I know.

    You could try adding this near the top of webv4/root/index.xjs, just after all of the 'load()' statements:

    http_reply.header['charset'] = 'iso-8859-1';

    If that doesn't work, you could try adding this, further down in the same file, inside the <head> element:

    <meta charset="ISO-8859-1">

    Let me know if one or both of those works for you, and I can add it as a configurable option.

    Neither has worked.

    The message come out with the Kudge CHRS: UTF-8 4. In golded, which does not have support for UTF-8, they are not seen correctly. If they come out with CHRS: CP437 2 (which is what happened with the old web) it seems that if the tildes and others are seen well, but with UTF-8 no. It must be sbbsecho who puts the kludges.

    I wish there was a field to choose the charset for each message area or each group of message areas even if only sbbsecho used to import/export messages. Maybe in the new versions :). I don't know how difficult that would be.

    I might have misunderstood the problem that you're describing.

    Are you saying that messages *posted* from webv4 aren't being displayed properly elsewhere?

    Or are you having trouble *viewing* messages in webv4?

    If the problem is with messages *posted* via webv4, you can try searching for "UTF-8 4" in webv4/lib/forum.js. You should find it twice in that file, and you could try replacing both with "CP437 2" or whatever value you think will work.

    I speak of the first, but the second also occurs.

    Tried. It does not work.

    I tell you what I see happening. I put CP437 or ISO-8859-1 in root / index.xjs, in the two sites you told me about. And I put the same in lib / forum.js. The web, when I write, detects that it is CP437, but when I write ticked aeiou, in lowercase and uppercase, as well as the u with umlaut and e±e, the PKT that it generates comes out with the kudge "CHSR: CP437 2" but the vowels come out in UTF-8 (the ticked a comes out as C3 A1 in Hex, the ticked e comes out as C3 A9, etc).

    Viewing the message from the web, as soon as I write it it looks bad. When I change my firefox encoding to UTF-8 they look perfect.

    I hope I have explained myself well. My English is not good and I use the google translator to help me, which is not perfect

    each message area has a toggle to detect UTF-8 or not... perhaps that's what you're looking for? i think you'll have to set it for each area because it is not copied from the template area...

    I just tried and nothing. Still the same. It was disabled, I have enabled it and the same result.

    It is not exactly what I am looking for. What I would like, I don't know how difficult it would be to implement, is that each area or each group of areas had a field in which to choose the character encoding.

    The ideal would be for Golded, the most widely used fido reading and writing program in Europe, to have full UTF-8 support. UTF-8 is the best encoding and valid for all languages.

    But that's not going to happen because it's not updating or at least I haven't seen updates for years

    Thanks :)

    each message area has a toggle to detect UTF-8 or not... perhaps that's what you're looking for? i think you'll have to set it for each area because it is not copied from the template area...

    I just tried and nothing. Still the same. It was disabled, I have enabled it and the same result.

    It is not exactly what I am looking for. What I would like, I don't know how difficult it would be to implement, is that each area or each group of areas had a field in which to choose the character encoding.

    That's not practical. Not every message posted in a message group would be assured to use the same character set/encoding. If I login to your BBS with a CP437 terminal (i.e. most BBS terminals), it's impossible for me to post a message in CP870 or CP866 or even UTF-8. The character set and encoding of the characters in a stored message is partly a function of the terminal in use at the time of the message writing.

    And similarly, when viewing messages, you can't change the terminal to magically support CP870 just because the user switch from a CP437 message group to a CP870 message group. Terminals don't work that way. The only solution is to use UTF-8.

    The ideal would be for Golded, the most widely used fido reading and writing program in Europe, to have full UTF-8 support. UTF-8 is the best encoding and valid for all languages.

    But that's not going to happen because it's not updating or at least I haven't seen updates for years

    It's open source. Update it or find some other interested user-developers to update it. It can be done.

    Are you saying that messages *posted* from webv4 aren't being displayed properly elsewhere?

    Or are you having trouble *viewing* messages in webv4?

    I am doing more tests.

    I write a message with the vowels marked in upper and lower case, as well as the e±e, umlauts and the euro symbol from the web, from the BBS by telnet and from golded using that golded can directly read the synchronet configuration.

    For telnet I use the debian MATE terminal, which allows me to choose the charset and for golded I use it in the same terminal. At this terminals I choose iso-8859-15.

    From the BBS and from golded the characters come out well. The PKT that synchronet generates is not generated in UTF-8, but it is in iso-8859-15 like the terminal.

    On the other hand, when I do it from the web it is not like that. The test that I have done is to read the message that I have written in the BBS from the terminal that goes well. I go to the web, read it and chrome detects iso8859-15 and read it well. I reply to that message and it seems like I write it well, but when I save it, it looks bad. I change the encoding of the page to UTF-8 and it reads perfect while the original message misread. I see the PKT that will have that answer and i see that it is in UTF-8.

    That is, according to these tests, if I write directly to the BBS by telnet or directly in the golded area, it works, but if I do it on the web, somehow, when it reaches the message area, it does it in UTF- 8.

    I hope I have explained myself well.

    Sure, but your terminal can't dynamically switch which codepage/charset it's expecting depending on what message area you happen to be viewing. It doesn't work that way. With codepages, modal: it's all or nothing. With UTF-8, you get all the possible glyphs/characters displayable in a single mode (no codepage switch necessary).

    And similarly, when viewing messages, you can't change the terminal to magically support CP870 just because the user switch from a CP437 message group to a CP870 message group. Terminals don't work that way. The only solution is to use UTF-8.

    I know, UTF-8 is the best solution. I don't dispute that. But now it is not my choice because I am not a programmer and I cannot give golded UTF-8 support. I would like to.

    The challenges with supporting multiple character sets/encodings is every program has to account for:
    1. the current user's charset (when viewing or writing content)
    2. the original user's charset (when viewing content written by that user)

    And then translate between them (dynamically) to hopefully make the content as portable/understandable as possible.

    Simple "tagging" content (messages) as being of some special arbitrary charset (not UTF-8) is not nearly enough. All the programs that display or modify that content then need to recoginize that special charset and handle the translations as appropriate, dynamically.

    The ideal would be for Golded, the most widely used fido reading and

    And that is all incorrect. If another user logins into your BBS and reads those messages using a common BBS terminal that assumes CP437 charset, those special characters are not going to be displayed to them as intended.

    It's only "working" for you because you're both creating and viewing the content in your specially-configured environment. Unless every consumer (viewer) of your content (messages) is using the same specially-configured environment, they're not going to see those characters in the way you intended. If those messages go out to a message network (FidoNet), the problem will be especially obvious. The easiest solution is to use UTF-8.

    On the other hand, when I do it from the web it is not like that. The test that I have done is to read the message that I have written in the BBS from the terminal that goes well.

    Because the BBS, including the web interface, is not going to recoginize your special characters as being iso8859-15. It only supports the charsets I already listed (US-ASCII, CP437, and UTF-8).

    That is, according to these tests, if I write directly to the BBS by telnet or directly in the golded area, it works, but if I do it on the web, somehow, when it reaches the message area, it does it in UTF- 8.

    As I would expect.

    As I have explained before, I have two fidonet nodes. The main node 2:341/66 is the one where I have Golded + HPT + Binkd and it is the one from which i receive and distribute fidonet (echos a files) to other nodes and points. I have been with this node since 1994. The message base that I have always used is JAM. It is the one that used the fastecho with DOS and OS/2 in my early days and, when i switched to Linux, i started using HPT which also supports JAM.

    Node 2:341/200 is where i have the BBS with Synchronet and fidonet.

    I have had multiple times BBS. I started in 93 with WWIV (a friend of mine started it), switched to RemoteAccess and then to EleBBS. After a long time without BBS until I discovered Synchronet. I had previous versions but i lost it in a crash. Now, with the confinement here in Spain, I have reassembled the BBS from scratch. I think it's very good software, but I still don't control it. I'm newbie with Synchronet.

    and let the user switch it to light mode if wanted. That would be
    more in line

    Not at the moment, but I'll add that as a config option; should be pretty simple.

    Thanks, as always

    That was a recently added feature of webv4. You could update your webv4 install if you want to go that route.

    If this is your site:

    http://canadianrebel.sytes.net:90/

    it looks fine to me. fTelnet is the correct size.

    If you're still having a problem, maybe post a screenshot somewhere so I can see what you're seeing - and let me know which browser & OS you're viewing it from.

    If you change /sbbs/ctrl/modopts.ini under the [Web] option, it will show
    up larger on some web browsers. Below is the option.

    ; Make the page consume the entire width of the browser window
    layout_full_width=true

    I just checked your website, and it looks fine to me in Microsoft Edge, but if you enable the option, it will utilize the complete on some browsers, which in turn may make the ftelnet window larger.

    You just need the latest webv4 site code, you can snag it from gitlab.synchro.net ... you may also need a more recent version of
    other synchronet libraries, also on gitlab.

    Because of how I have my website(s) setup, I need to make a minor
    set of changes for the wss host each time I update it.

    Quick question, in the pages webctrl.ini file, how can I make all files visable, but only level 50 and above be able to download. I've got it set that way on the bbs, and I'd like to follow suite on the web page. Thanks in advance.
