What are your experiences with viewing Dynamic HTML outlines using web browsers?
For me on Mac, they view well in Chrome, fair in Firefox, and not well at all in Safari.
What is your experience?
Thanks, John
What issues are you seeing in Safari?
I have tried using Dynamic HTML for the first time.
OmniOutliner Pro 5.12
Mac 14.1.2
I have a very large OO outline. When I export to Dynamic HTML, the index.html file is 3.6MB
When I open this in Safari which is the default on my machine, the result is useless. I can see about a page and ½ of information. The scroll control is at the very top and I can try and pull it down which is difficult. I shows only acres of blank white pages. If I scroll with my mouse, the result is the same. Once I get past the first page or so, it is just white blank.
Clicking on reveal triangles in the small visible part at the beginning does nothing. Since Safari is the default on my machine, I decided that I just did not understand Dynamic HTML or that it was just unworkable, perhaps because my outline was too big. I have not tried it with a small outline.
But it remained an unresolved itch for me. Finally, prompted by this entry on the forum, I tried Chrome. It handled the very large outline without difficulty. Disclosure triangles work.
So, from my experience with my own outline, Safari is entirely useless and Chrome works without any problems.
Hmmm … not sure why this is happening to you. I am using the same versions of macOS and OO, and Safari shows my outlines fine, but Chrome feels a bit clunky, with lags when I expand and collapse items. Weird.
