Website HTML Load as Data fails for some websites

Steps causing the bug to occur

I’m able to use most website URL’s with Fetch Data, and convert it to text (Vuo website, other websites …).

But in rare cases it doesn’t work.

In the attached composition, a layer periodically displays an HTML snippet as text for the Vuo website, another one, but the third one fails to load.
On port popovers, it says “x amount of data” though, but when converted to text, it says “empty text”.

If I however download the HTML file of that website with the Safari console, save it as text, and fetch the locally saved data, it works (second composition).

Not sure this is a Vuo bug, or an HTML limitation, or if this could be a feature request to support specific HTML.

Have you found a workaround?

Not really. Downloading offline HTML is a lot of work, and isn’t live.

Other notes

  • Vuo version: 2.0.0
  • macOS version: macOS 10.13
  • How severely does this bug affect you? It prevents me from completing a specific task with Vuo.
