Woofy

I've noticed that at least two of the comics I've tried to download have ended far before their current page. XCKD ended after downloading 559 strips (odly enough it says its on page 562), and in my previous testing sluggy freelance ended early too, but I do not recall exactly when. Any help in rectifiying this issue would be appreciated. Also, do you use github or any other program for issue tracking?

EDIT: Moving xkcd.def to a new install caused it to update, and start downlading more pages of XKCD. I will update with what it stops too.

PS: I don't want to be annoying with all of my bug reports. I'm really enthusiastic about this prgoram and I want to see it working to its full potential. I hope that helping report issues will help make it better. As soon as I figure out how to make my own definitions I want to do that, to give back to the comminity.

Not sure about Sluggy Freelance, as I had no problem downloading that one. (You're probably using the definition file I uploaded, actually.) And from your other post, I gather you're using a different version of Woofy (the portable one) on a different platform than I am, anyway, so some of your problems are likely related to things I simply haven't encountered. But I can tell you that xkcd can be a bit of a bitch to download. There are a number of strips in the archive with names and/or mouseover texts containing characters that cause Woofy to crash. I improved the default definition file a bit for my own use, and seem to have reduced the number of times that happens, but I haven't gotten crash frequency down to 0.

Thank you for your reply. I imagine XKCD would do that, considering some of the things randall does. With further testing, I've noticed that Dumbing of Age also stops early.
Here is the log file:

Don't worry, I appreciate your reports - making Woofy better is also my goal :). I'll take a look at the Dumbing of Age.

It works fine for me (i.e. it has no trouble downloading from http://www.dumbingofage.com/2011/comic/book-1/05-media-rumble/composited/ ).
