The specs say something like this: Use the <frameset> tag in lieu of a <body> tag in the frame document. You may not include any other content except valid <head> and <frameset> content in a frame document. Combining frames with a conventional document containing <body> may result in unpredictable browser behavior. So, again (this is to the list), should Dillo follow the specs - and thus produce unwanted results - or try to work around the cruft some sites serve? Fixing this would be relatively easy, and the fix can be optional (--enable-pedantic or --enable-quirks or whatever...) By the way, some sites check the browser string to decide what type of content to send, these may also send non-frames content. Same goes for sites which use Javascript to test for browser versions. So even if Dillo has full frame support one day, it can still happen that a site does not serve it (functional) frame documents...

Segfaults with png files
by William Trenker 05 Aug '03

05 Aug '03

I built Dillo 0.7.2 from source and it works great except when there is a png file on the web page I'm browsing. In that case, Dillo segfaults with this message on the command line: Png_error_handling: Application was compiled with png.h from libpng-1.0.12 Segmentation fault What have I done wrong? Can you give me any suggestion how to fix this? Thanks, Bill

Frame support in tab patch, found a bug...
by Frank de Lange 05 Aug '03

Hi'all, I just noted an interesting typo in the frame support code, which makes some framed sites look really weird. I'll fix in in the next patch, but (as it is a very simple thing to change) you might want to fix your copy asap. in html.c, in the function Html_tag_open_frameset():1971 change: gint col = *frame_number / html->stack[html->stack_top].frameset_cols; gint row = *frame_number % html->stack[html->stack_top].frameset_cols; to: gint col = *frame_number % html->stack[html->stack_top].frameset_cols; gint row = *frame_number / html->stack[html->stack_top].frameset_cols; So, in essence, switch the '/' and '%' operators. It will still make a mess of the layout as it does not obey frame sizing, but at least it is a geometrically correct mess...

dillo-0.7.3-rc2
by Jorge Arellano Cid 03 Aug '03

Hi there! Today I was decided to upload 0.8.0-pre but found some problems with one plugin. At the same time Sebastian sent me a fix for the bug that delays 0.7.3 (very simple), so most probably our current CVS holds the final 0.7.3! Please give it a hard test. If everything goes fine, it'll be released by Tuesday or Wednesday. With regard to 0.8.0-pre, please expect it to be in CVS at announce time. I know I have delayed it a lot, but it comes with much more than what was anticipated (and I believe you'd prefer it to be working right! :). Cheers Jorge.- PS: Phil, Kelson: Please be prepared to upgrade your packages before 0.7.3 is announced. That is, if testing don't say otherwise! I'll let you know one or two days before the announcement.
