ABOUT HTMLview.mcc
******************
HTMLview.mcc is a MUI custom class that renders HTML inside any MUI
application. The class supports the bulk of HTML 4 and is fast enough to
drop into mail readers, news readers, and help browsers without a
noticeable parse step.
Its main features are:
* Incremental rendering of the page via a separate decoder process, so
the hosting MUI application stays responsive while a document is
still parsing.
* Progressive display of images with built-in decoders for
GIF / GIFAnim, JPEG, and PNG.
* HTTP / HTTPS image and document loading via the reusable
libhtmlview_nethook helper (AmiSSL 5.x), with optional CA bundle
verification and an opt-in on-disk response cache.
* Text selection and copy-to-clipboard, in-page search.
* Floating tables, background images, frames, forms, and the rest of
the HTML 4 toolbox.
KNOWN LIMITATIONS
*****************
* Text outside a <body>...</body> pair is not shown; pages without the
tag render blank. (Tracked in IMPROVEMENTS.md Phase 7.)
* HTML entities without a trailing semicolon are not interpreted --
"&" is ignored; write "&". (Tracked in Phase 7.)
* The Floyd-Steinberg dither does not clamp error at tile boundaries,
so tiled backgrounds can show faint seams. (Tracked in Phase 7.)
* The datatype image-decoder fallback was historically reliable only
with the Picasso96 picture.datatype; modern WebP/SVG/AVIF require a
datatype path not yet wired in. (Tracked in Phase 6.)
* UTF-8 pages render mojibake; the parser treats bytes as Latin-1.
A transliteration pass is in the roadmap (Phase 4).
