Fix for dillo: Save cookies in forums

by johannes leimbach

Hi! I got a patch/bugfix for dillo 0.7.3 Problem: When visiting PHPBB boards such as www.c-plusplus.de/forum/ or other messageboards in general (www.buahaboard.net) dillo does not save the cookies. They are only stored in memory, so after a restart you have to login again (which rendered dillo basically useless for me) Problem cause: After looking at the cookies these boards wanted to place I realized their date was somehow 2 hours back in time, so they were already expired for dillo. Well, the webmasters are to blame again. The cookies were discarded in cookies.c, Cookies_create_timestamp, line 388following it just returned 0, indicating the timestamp is invalid, thus discarding the cookie. Making it return a valid time (eh, not that valid anyway) solves this problem: cookies.c, line 388 else { //~ DEBUG_MSG(5, E_msg); // WAS: LINE 388 //~ return (time_t) 0; // WAS : LINE 389 // i do not pretend to understand this, but hey, it works year = -2069; month=-1; hour=minutes=seconds=-1; day=1; day += (year - 1968) * 1461 / 4; day += ((((month * 153) + 2) / 5) - 672); ret = (time_t)((day * 60 * 60 * 24) + (hour * 60 * 60) + (minutes * 60) + seconds); return ret; } Sorry for not knowing about the linux time stamp, but i just had no interest to learn that stuff yet. If someone wants to explain it, go on! And of course I would've also provided a nice .patch file, if i just knew how. This is the first time I submit a patch :) So, please let me know what you think of this fix, i'd love to see it in the next version of dillo. I guess I'm not the only one with that problem :) Sincerly, johannes

Its not a matter of liking or not, users may simply ignore tabs (and there may perhaps be a _user_ option for alternative presentations of frames). However, conditional compilation makes maintaining more difficult (and since that's the task of Jorge and me, the list is the wrong place to ask), so it is a question whether the reduced binary size outweighs the increased maintaining problems. > I have already removed some preferences which could be combined > (frame_blank_in_tab and tab_on_middle_click -> > tab_instead_of_window) or which should be defaulted to the new > functionality (document_title_use_url).

Options should reflect different user's taste, while this difference depends on the situation. > - rename "DilloDoc" to something else (I do not agree, DilloDoc is > descriptive and short) In a local, experimental version of dillo, I've added a new module, representing the document in a DOM-like way, and which was this morning renamed from "doc.[ch]" to "doctree.[ch]". Your DilloDoc represents mainly the interface part of the document, there are other aspects. Sebastian

Look here: http://www.geocities.com/ikbenfrank/dillo-0.7.3-20030926-tabs.patch.gz 2) Try applying the patch from within the dillo-0.7.3/ directory, *not* from the dillo-0.7.3/src/ subdirectory. Paul

They are just not advertised on the main Dillo site (unfortunately). Google for dillo patch and you'll find quite a few. For starters I can point to my patch page, which hosts the tab + frame patch: http://www.geocities.com/ikbenfrank/ This patch adds tabbed browsing and (i)frame support to Dillo, as well as some other minor improvements (interactive search, option to use status bar for search instead of popup window, etc). Other people have patched Dillo for Japanese language, external program launching, HTTP AUTH support, image resizing (like Opera), and more. There is also a new fork which adds support for MacOS X and Windows. Just browse through the mailing list archives for some more information...

See http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.web.dillo.devel/1108 Just use the right paths for the Dillo source, and update the version number on the patch. (Also, be sure you're using the right version of the patch - if you've downloaded Dillo 0.7.3, use the patch for 0.7.3. If you're using a CVS snapshot, use the patch for CVS.) -- Kelson Vibber www.hyperborea.org

Generally, the people who maintain the patches post them on their own websites. Often they post the information on the mailing list. There used to be a partial list on the Dillo home page, but either it's gone or I can't find it anymore. I still have links to several at the bottom of http://www.hyperborea.org/software/dillo/modified.html Kelson Vibber www.hyperborea.org
