Earlier today, I played with the Browser Sampler stack
on WinXP+IE7, and didn't encounter any problems. Also
tried the example stack on Win2K+IE6, and didn't bump
into any problems either.

I just opened the Browser Sampler stack on my iMac/G5
OSX 10.4.9
- the button on the first screen worked fine
- when I tried to open the PDF example, Rev crashed
I reopened Revolution
- skipped the button on the first card
- the PDF example opened fine now
- the Flash example opened without a problem
- the simple browser and navigation cards worked fine
- the domain constraint example actually let me go to
the smurf.com website, but the next click in that site
gave the expected message (so there might be a problem
with the first time 'browserBeforeNavigate' is sent
(this needs more research)
- selected text card worked fine
- thumbnail card worked fine
- two browsers card worked fine
No crashes during that walkthrough.

Safari was open at the same time, so I could type this
reply.

Hope this helped,

Jan Schenkel.
