The reader mode feature is designed to work on pages with articles on them. Since the page in question doesn't contain an article, the feature shouldn't trigger. Punting to wychen@ to take a look.

Well the big difference between it and http://jidanni.org/me/index.html is that the one that fails just has a few images near the top.

I mean even text browsers like w3m and lynx can deal with such pure HTML with no CSS and no javascript like butter...

I think the bug here is that the Mobile-friendly view shouldn't be triggered, since neither one of the pages contains exactly one article.

They taught us in HTML school that an article (page) should have one <HEAD> and one <BODY> and one <H1> etc.

Your viewport setting is perfectly fine, so your site is considered mobile-friendly already. The Mobile-friendly view shouldn't trigger in this case. Did you change the flag and force it to always show it? Mobile-friendly view is targeted at long-form articles, like blog post or news articles. The two examples you pointed out don't fit our definition. Getting empty results on non-article pages is working as intended.

1. I cannot find the control to force Moblie Friendly, therefore I probably did not tamper with it. 2. e.g., http://jidanni.org/me/index.html though already friendly as you say, looks even more Friendly when I click Make Moblie Friendly. Therefore I would regret that if, by submitting this bug report, instead of both pages being available more Friendly, now none of the two shall be available more Friendly. A step backwards.

You can edit your own website so that it looks more friendly as in the distilled version in Mobile-friendly View.

I see, I should make the site unfriendly in order to trigger mobile friendly... ha ha. Anyway, I'm reporting Chromium bugs not website bugs.

One thing that's unexpected is that http://jidanni.org/index.html contains mobile-friendly viewport tag, but the Mobile-friendly View infobar still shows up. Is this reproducible if the flag chrome://flags/#reader-mode-heuristics is set to "Non-mobile-friendly articles" or "Appears to be an article"?

wychen: I'm sure what you see is the same as me, so will take your word for it. Also I note in Canary all this mobile-friendly stuff is gone anyway.

Mobile-friendly View infobar shows up on http://jidanni.org/index.html on your phone, but I couldn't reproduce it. This is the unexpected part. It should still work on Canary. Could you provide more information on how to reproduce it? Does it work if you set chrome://flags/#reader-mode-heuristics to Always?

In Canary, it triggers the pop up only if set to always. Therefore it seems the bug is fixed in Canary. So I suppose you can close this bug. Thank you. |
