current no-cache patch?
by Paul Fox 09 Oct '05

09 Oct '05

i was surprised when i figured out that the current dillo code doesn't support any sort of "no cache" or "expires" facility. it seems that this was done in 2003, in a patch referenced here: http://lists.auriga.wearlab.de/pipermail/dillo-dev/2003-August/001039.html i tried applying it, and resolving the (many) differences myself, but i seem to have botched it, because now some of my pages don't display at all. :-) is there a more current version of this patch around? i think it's important functionality... paul =--------------------- paul fox, pgf(a)foxharp.boston.ma.us (arlington, ma, where it's 77.5 degrees)

Hi, Just wondering: is there any plan to merge this? When is the next dillo coming out? What goodies can we expect? Thanks a bundle, all, and best wishes!:-) --- Bjoern Brill <brill(a)fs.math.uni-frankfurt.de> wrote: > From: Bjoern Brill <brill(a)fs.math.uni-frankfurt.de> > To: dillo-dev(a)dillo.org > Subject: Re: [Dillo-dev]support for video streams > Date: Wed, 9 Feb 2005 19:48:48 +0100 (CET) > > > On Wed, 9 Feb 2005, Michael Kropfberger wrote: > > > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- > > Hash: SHA1 > > > > hi! > > > > for a multimedia app on linux ipaq, I wanted to enable video links from > within > > dillo... > > > [...] > > Try the "external viewers" patch by Lars Clausen and Mattthias Franz: > <http://www-fourier.ujf-grenoble.fr/~franz/dillo/>. > It does not (directly) support streaming protocols, but everything over > http for which you can provide a working mailcap entry.

tabs + frames with .deb

The dillo patch from http://teki.jpn.ph/pc/software/index-e.shtml fails sometimes. For me under solaris a core a runtime error occures with the following output: ---------------------------- ** WARNING **: no support enc Bus Error (core dumped) ---------------------------- To avoid the error, insert code from line 432-435 a_I18n_convert_raw() before line 455 a_I18n_convert(). So the return value of iconv_open() is checked and if it is not set do the iconv_open() again with defaults like in a_I18n_convert_raw(): gchar *a_I18n_convert( const gchar* from, const gchar* to, const gchar* buf, gint bufsize) { iconv_t it; gchar *outBuf; gint len; if (!buf) return NULL; if (bufsize == 0) return g_strdup(""); g_return_val_if_fail(from && to, g_strndup(buf, bufsize)); it = iconv_open(to, from); if (!it || it==(iconv_t)-1) { /* <========== start of insertion */ it = iconv_open("ASCII", DILLO_CHARSET); } /* =============== end of insertion */ len = (bufsize == -1) ? (gint)strlen(buf) : bufsize; if (len < 0) { MSG("a_I18n_convert: bufsize < 0\n"); return g_strdup(buf); } outBuf = a_I18n_convert_raw(it, buf, len); iconv_close(it); return outBuf; }

JavaScript
by TBlittlefoot 19 Sep '05

Hello again, So what's the big deal about javascripts? <td><A href ="javascript:void(window.open('/art_bell_cam. html','ABCam','nostatus,nomenubar,noresize,width=515,height=435'));"><img src=" /images/btn_webcam.gif" border="0"></a> </td> That's the image link and javascript to go to Art Bell's webcam, found in the source at www.coasttocoastam.com/index.html You click on the link with Dillo and get nothing, because Dillo doesn't support javascript. But if you do: dillo www.coasttocoastam.com/art_bell_cam.html There it is! A simple end-run around javascript that, it seems to me, could be built into Dillo without much problem. As for the other eye-candy bullshit done with javascripts, I couldn't care less. I don't want non-open-source software on my computer, and it is my understanding that java is not open-source. Tom

Any chance of getting that "open in external browser" integrated with Dillo? Thanks, Todd

Java in Dillo
by TBlittlefoot 16 Sep '05

16 Sep '05

Greetings, Could anyone tell me why this page is readable with W3m but not with Dillo 0.8.0? http://www.lifeaftertheoilcrash.net/ A no-java warning appears in both browsers, but w3m displays all the text and Dillo doesn't. Thanks. Great browser. I was happy to dump mozilla for it and don't do java or cookies or plugins. Tom

dillo and xhtml
by Wim De Smet 11 Sep '05

11 Sep '05

Hi, in keeping with the latest and greatest, I was playing around with xhtml. Now the standard seems to be that xhtml should be send es application/xhtml+xml in the first place (there's a note about it somewhere). Or, if that is not possible, application/xml, text/xml, etc. Never as text/html (because this mimetype is not registered for this content). However, dillo doesn't recognize this mimetype and always tries to save an application/xhtml+xml file, though it can always be rendered as html. The current workaround for dillo and other browsers is just send text/html but since standards compliance is very important for dillo I would suggest treating application/xhtml+xml as though it was text/html for the time being. (or at least until the CSS support is complete). Thoughts? Ideas? Wim

Funding activities
by Jorge Arellano Cid 11 Sep '05

Hi there, After coming back from LSM 2005, I've devoted 100% of my time to the funding effort. I know I said that most probably after the LSM a FLTK-based prototype would be online, but at that time we were _very_ advanced to get the core team to work full time on dillo. It failed almost at signing the contracts. I was waiting for this to happen to tell the list the good news. BTW, most of the new dpi stuff (not yet uploaded) was a work for this company. I see no point in spending my last $$ in developing just to tell you a have to leave in a couple of months, so funding has acquired the first priority. For those of you that are curious, the donations link has raised EUR 500 in all its lifespan (2 years or less IIRC). Almost surely, the next release will be GTK-based, and I'll code only when I find a timespan in my fund-related activities. The FLTK port went great while we were working on full steam with Sebastian in Germany, now it's stalled. If funding succeeds, we'll be able to work on it again, and you'll surely enjoy the new Dillo much more than the current one! -- Cheers Jorge.-

Optional Image Downloading/HTML2txt Conversion
by TBlittlefoot 10 Sep '05

10 Sep '05

It would be nice if downloading images was optional, but I've been reading through the docs and haven't found a way. Perhaps a configuration item in dillorc that would tell Dillo to first download just the HTML source, render the text, and then, if you chose to reload it, bring down the images too....?? If Dillo could do that, and be used to convert HTML to plain text, I could ditch w3m! Thanks, Tom
