602 602 v 2.0.3 error with google

Eboek · 12-18-2010, 06:20 AM

When I use the iwebbrowser and i go to www.google.nl I get a message:

This page contains the following error: error on line 3 at column 2440 entity 'nbsp' not defined.

What is wrong?

I guess that's a bug with a special sign on the dutch website. We will check that.

FWIW, entities are the special characters between & and ; - and nbsp is non-breaking space, often used to get particular layouts. It really should be supported, and even not knowing an entity should not stop a page from displaying; it's like an unknown glyph in a font. Probably the most common html entity is that for ampersand itself, but they're often used for unusual letters like åäö. I think most browsers fall back to showing the entire entity as text when they don't recognize them.

Hello there,

Are there PB 602 devices with Dutch menu language?
Cause mine hasn't and could I upgrade it? (not a big deal if I couldn't)

Thank you.

Thank you.

It should be possible right in the reader over configuration/languages

I can't find it, there are a lot of languages but no Dutch.
Another minor thing is the volume with TTS, it is way too loud. And I can't change the volume of the mp3 player?

Just to confirm the bug: I get entity errors with PB902 at google.no, but also at nytimes.com. Including, but not restricted to, "nbsp". Firmware 2.0.3. (Just in case there is more than one browser: I'm referring to the one found under "games".)

While TTS is running, press the ok key and a submenu appears. There you can up or down volume

I know but the most silent volume (with headphones) is still too loud imo.

I get the same error message with the en (English) version at Google.ca
It doesn't seem to affect function though. I think the unrecognised nbsp occurs at the end of the page.

same with google.co.uk - but as you said, the browser functions anyway.

Hello,
Same error with Google.fr (France).
But the browser functions...
