Please test it throughly to be sure it works 100%. If that's confirmed it'd be worth to add a news item in our web site. After all, what could be faster than dillo as web mail? -- Cheers Jorge.-

I just compiled and packages 0.8.4 for MkLinux so I will use it and testit. But it is the plain version of Gmail that is very well done: it works really smooth with netscape 4.79 and looks good. They must have used skilled designers. Under ns 4.79 I notice the use of Javascript though (looking at the status bar) so I wonder what it really does, it may be that the "plain" version still detects and adatps to the capabilities of the browser.

[Dillo-dev]Gmail

by Jonathan Gardner

I hadn't actually tried using Gmail with Dillo before, but I just heard that Gmail recently implemented a "plain html" version and would thus work on any browser. That inspired me to try it with Dillo and sure enough it works. Maybe it always did, but it certainly does now. :-) Jonathan

[Dillo-dev]dillo bug : not using the whole space

by Denis BUCHER

Hello ! I found another bug or problem in dillo : It doesn't use all the space provided ! For example, let's take a 320x240 screen/window (in full screen mode). If your content takes more than 305-310 pixels wide, the scrollbars are appearing, while they only should appear if your content is larger than "window size less borders", like 316... I hope my question is clear and thank anyone would could reply/help me :-) Denis -- Denis Bucher Horus Digital Solutions Each problem has a solution ______________________________________________________________________ Tél. +41-22-8000625 Fax: +41-22-8000622 www.horus.info

[Dillo-dev]Dillo centering elements

by Denis BUCHER

Hello ! I don't know if I didn't find which HTML tags were supported by dillo, or if it is a dillo bug or limitation, but I am totally unable to make dillo center something on the screen. I want to center an image, but centering the table containing the image or centering the contents in the table cell don't work. And I don't even speak about vertical centering. I even tryed with onepixel images, streched with <img width="20"> for example. Doesn't see to work either. Therefore my question is : How to achieve that (having dillo centering an image). Thanks a lot in advance !

[Dillo-dev]FOSDEM 2005

by Jorge Arellano Cid

Hi there, I'm in Europe these days! At this time FOSDEM 2005 is history, and Dillo was there (embedded track). We had a lot of work with Sebastian and presented Dillo succesfully! The conference was informative and entertaining so people liked it very much. Now I'm in Dortmund and we're working hard with Sebastian on a CVS based prototype with the new Abstraction Layer, so don't expect much emails these days. All the pending work is stalled as we're 100% on this, so patches, extensions, bug-fixes etc will have to wait. Eventually we will come with a renewed Dillo design that provides for stronger basis for the future (think of FLTK, CSS, utf8, text antialiasing, better rendering, etc). -- Cheers Jorge.-

[Dillo-dev]Patch to handle "td width" issues

by sam+dillo＠chaosring.org

It would be nice if we lived in a world without MSIE (Microsoft Internet Explorer) In particular, it would be nice if we lived in a world without MSIE's broken CSS. For example, there is a wonderful CSS attribute, called max-width, that lets a user specify the maximum width for a given element. Should the user have a narrow window (can you say 640x480), the element in question will just become narrower to fit this window. However, MSIE does not have support for this attribute. This is a feature that only 10% of the browsing population can make use of. The workaround looks like this: <table><tr> <td width=700> The content of a web site. </td></tr></table> The way all the mainstream browsers (MSIE, Opera, Konqueror/Safari, and all the Gecko browsers) handle this is as follows: * They consider the <td width=123> to be a suggestion. This is the maximum possible width for the element in question, as long as the table cell does not have any single elements (such as very long words) that are wider. * If the browser window (viewport) is wide enough to fit this element with the suggested width, the width is unchanged. * If the browser window is not wide enough to fit this element, the table cell will be made narrower to accomodate the narrow browser window. Dillo, however, does not support this /de facto/ standard. The following patch gives Dillo support for this standard. This patch doesn't do the rendering the correct way (which is to make sure all such TDs are not wider than the browser viewport window, barring long table elements), but it does make sure that a single table cell will not be wider than the Dillo browser window. This patch does not handle dynamic resizing, but will ensure that the TD hack will render (mostly) correctly in Dillo. - Sam --- dillo-0.8.4.orig/src/dw_gtk_viewport.c 2004-10-21 15:35:00.000000000 -0700 +++ dillo-0.8.4/src/dw_gtk_viewport.c 2005-03-02 19:04:07.954913184 -0800 @@ -56,6 +56,8 @@ static void Dw_gtk_viewport_adj_changed (GtkAdjustment *adj, GtkDwViewport *viewport); +int ext_window_width = -1; + /* * Standard Gtk+ function */ @@ -302,6 +304,7 @@ widget->allocation.height, viewport->depth); viewport->back_width = widget->allocation.width; + ext_window_width = viewport->back_width; viewport->back_height = widget->allocation.height; DEBUG_MSG (1, " Creating new pixmap, size = %d x %d\n", widget->allocation.width, widget->allocation.height); @@ -1165,6 +1168,7 @@ viewport_area.x = gtk_layout_get_hadjustment(layout)->value; viewport_area.y = gtk_layout_get_vadjustment(layout)->value;; viewport_area.width = widget->allocation.width; + ext_window_width = viewport_area.width; viewport_area.height = widget->allocation.height; if (p_Dw_rectangle_intersect (&viewport->draw_areas[i], --- dillo-0.8.4.orig/src/html.c 2005-01-05 13:01:00.000000000 -0800 +++ dillo-0.8.4/src/html.c 2005-03-02 19:25:16.673038712 -0800 @@ -132,6 +132,8 @@ } TagInfo; static const TagInfo Tags[]; +extern int ext_window_width; + /* * Return the line number of the tag being processed by the parser. */ @@ -1837,6 +1839,22 @@ if ((attrbuf = Html_get_attr(html, tag, tagsize, "width"))) { style_attrs.width = Html_parse_length (html, attrbuf); + /* In Netscape 4/MSIE/Gecko there is a complicated algorithm + * that makes sure all of the td widths are no wider than the + * screen; since MSIE 5/6 doesn't have the CSS max_width + * attribute, web designers still use td width=whatever to specify + * a maximum width.
