support for IntersectionObserver #1662

Closed vbr closed 4 years ago

vbr commented 4 years ago

Hi, I'd like about the possibility to support IntersectionObserver in Otter; I recently noticed some pages where rather basic navigation means were missing (possibly after some code update); the error message suggest, this might be the cause (or one of them...) ReferenceError: Can't find variable: IntersectionObserver It might be a rather modern addition https://webkit.org/blog/8582/intersectionobserver-in-webkit/ but I am not sure, how/whether it applies for the webkit engine in Otter

@vbr, sorry, that is one of these things that has to wait for new major release of QtWebkit…

Thanks for the prompt answer; I'm ok with that, I could imagine, this is a rather complex task. Regards, vbr

@vbr, in general it is better to focus on trying to get new release sooner than redirecting resources for such cherry picking (unless it is something trivial or important from security point of view), since it will bring a lot of new features etc.
