Welcome to the OFFICIAL website
for the HighWire web browser!
The goal with HighWire is to create a mature web browser
for Atari and compatible setups.
It will be written to work smoothly under both MiNT and MagiC, supporting both STiK and MiNTnet API.
Monitor the progress by checking out the short summary of latest fixes and additions in

Welcome to the "new" and improved HighWire website! In order to make the job of maintaining this website somewhat easier, some changes needed to be done. The website now relies on some
basic PHP and also displays the latest forum entries and bugreports. All of which will hopefully make this page a good resource for all things HighWire.

A new development snapshop has been uploaded to the download page. The binary dates back to May 29 but has been delayed until today due to a website overhaul. Sorry for the wait.

What to expect? Please note
that HighWire is not yet a complete browser! It does however offer limited form support and can be used online with either
MiNTnet, STiK and IConnect.
The current release offers caching for documents as well as images. Supported image formats are gif (not animated yet), jpg and png.
HighWire has already reached a state where it is quite useable
for basic browsing needs, but still lacks important things like cookies, javascript and more.
