Folks, I applaud the overhaul of Scamper that is in progress. Here are a few bugs that are probably independent of the current effort. Anyone have an idea about them?
1) The page http://www.freetranslation.com/ displays fine and the button works. However, if you choose a different language from the popup menu button, several new buttons and fields are added to the page, and the old ones are not deleted. The more times you choose, the more buttons pile up below it.
2) The page http://www.spellcheckit.com has a form with inputs. There appears to be no way to launch this form in Scamper. Yes, there is one line of Javascript in the window setup, but I don't understand how a standard browser uses it. If you are an HTML expert, tell us how this page works!
In both of the above, there are .gifs in an HTML form. It should be really easy to make those show on the screen.

The JavaScript function on this page is only triggered by the Help button and terms of service links. Browsers which don't support JavaScript should ignore the function since it's enclosed withing a comment so there shouldn't be a problem loading the page. If one clicks on these 2 links in a browser that doesn't support JS or has it turned off, a runtime error will occur since the javascript: protocol used is not valid in such a context.
Hope this helps, Laurence.
