Hiya guys. I have been running different builds of Retrozilla for basic web usage during the last four years with no problems at all, but it seems that Google, in all of their wisdom, recently made certain changes to the coding for their web search UI that Retrozilla will interpret as nothing but a nice blank screen. (No matter if I use, 98SE, 2K SP4 or XP SP3)

What is noteworthy, is that even IE 5.5 with all of its usual brokenness manages to display search results normally, as if nothing ever happened.

Anyone else having issues with Retrozilla and Google Search as of late? Please post your findings so far!

since google is going to ditch old search interfaces so you may end-up have to refrain from using google search with old browsers.
better try something else for example https://lite.duckduckgo.com/lite/

I heard that they may have started requiring JavaScript so more than likely that is the issue.

Create an issue for it on the retrozilla github and it might be looked at eventually.
