Feature request: send URL to

by Todd Slater

When you come across a page that Dillo cannot render, it would be nice to have a button--or option added to right-click menu--that would allow the user to send the requested URL to another browser or script, which might be specified in .dillorc. Something like ROX's Send to, but this would only need a single option. Obviously I'm telling you I'm lazy :) Cheers, Todd

I just open everything in a new tab/browser ... Some of us don't have the bandwidth to make automatically pre-loading all links desireable. For exampke, I'm connected to the web with a 33.6K dial- up modem. Another, possible concern with pre-loading is for hand=held devices that have pay-per-minute Internet connections. I would guess that folks with that kind of connection would only want to download the pages they specifically choose. But if I had an unlimited-access, high-speed Internet connection I can see how automatically loading all links on a page into background pages would be nifty.

Any ideas? a new icon was added, which was not yet added to the alternate icon sets (the button for "full screen" mode). you can simply copy&paste the definition for "full_screen_on_xpm" and "full_screen_off_xpm" from the old pixmaps file into the kde one to fix it. > Thanks, > Todd Greetings Thorben Thuermer

Can't compile 0.7.2 with alternate icons

by Todd Slater

First off thanks for this great browser! I was able to build 0.7.1 with the ximian and kde icons; however, when I try to do the same with 0.7.2 I get: interface.c: In function `Interface_add_full_screen_button': interface.c:648: `full_screen_on_xpm' undeclared (first use in this function) interface.c:648: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once interface.c:648: for each function it appears in.) interface.c: In function `a_Interface_browser_window_new': interface.c:824: `full_screen_off_xpm' undeclared (first use in this function) make[3]:*** [interface.o] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/todd/dillo-0.7.2/src' make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/todd/dillo-0.7.2/src' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/todd/dillo-0.7.2' make: *** [all] Error 2 I browsed the last couple of months of archives and couldn't find anything on this there. Any ideas? Thanks, Todd

With Galeon or i also rarely use the back and forward, the open in a new windows is very fast and more usefull in dillo i almost only use the back action when i miss click in one link or want to go to some index to bookmark the page higuita -- Naturally the common people don't want war... but after all it is the leaders of a country who determine the policy, and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship.
