Hello,
Lately we have quite a few new threads dedicated to UI improvements. Here is one more.
Two web pages, accessible from https://basex.org/download/:
· Latest developer snapshot (https://files.basex.org/releases/latest/) · Previous versions (https://files.basex.org/releases/)
are not displaying correctly links while Dark Theme is used in (1) MS Edge and (2) Brave browsers. A white band is overlapping/hiding actual links for the files.
Steps to turn on a Dark Theme in the Brave browser:
- Type brave://flags into the address bar and press Enter.
- Search for "Auto Dark Mode for Web Contents" or "Force Dark Mode for Web Contents".
- Change the dropdown from "Default" to "Enabled" or select a specific inversion style (like "Enabled with selective inversion").
- Relaunch the browser when prompted.
If needed, I can provide screen shots.
Thank you in advance.
Regards,
Yitzhak Khabinsky

The same is happening in the Google Chrome.
I guess, all Chromium engine based Internet Browsers are affected.
Steps to turn on a Dark Theme in the Google Chrome browser:
- Type chrome://flags/ into the address bar and press Enter.
- Search for "Auto Dark Mode for Web Contents" or "Force Dark Mode for Web Contents".
- Change the dropdown from "Default" to "Enabled" or select a specific inversion style (like "Enabled with selective inversion").
- Relaunch the browser when prompted.

The issue was resolved by Michael Seiferle (?!)
I tested the fix in Edge, Chrome, and Brave, all Chromium based engine browsers. All of them are showing properly the web pages in question:
