take_focus on a new tab
by furaisanjin＠gmail.com Dec. 18, 2009

Dec. 18, 2009

Hi all. I'm wondering if "BW2UI(new_bw)->tabs()->selected_child()->take_focus()" is really needed in a_UIcmd_open_url_nt. I usually hit space bar to scroll down but I can't do this when I open a new tab by clicking middle mouse button. The reason is that cursor stays on address bar so that I just add space at the end of url if I hit space bar. Regards, furaisanjin

patch: anchors no longer words
by corvid＠lavabit.com Nov. 30, 2009

Nov. 30, 2009

A few days ago, I tried to make addParbreak() work properly when listitems have anchors in the beginning (that's why they often show breaks before their contents), but it was quite icky -- and required more extensive changes than I expected. So instead, here's what we get if we pull the anchors out of the Word list and store them separately. Less icky.

[patch]: trim the labels of the stylesheet menu
by onepoint＠starurchin.org Nov. 21, 2009

Nov. 21, 2009

While thinking about stylesheet issues I noticed a UI problem: the stylesheet menu uses URLs as the labels of the menu items. This is unfortunate because some sites have stylesheets with insanely long URLs. (Try Wikipedia if you don't believe me!) So I'm attaching a patch that trims long URLs in the menu. This is just a UI change - no functionality is affected. Here's a demonstration of the patch on the front page of Wikipedia: http://starurchin.org/dillo/stylesheet_menu/ Notes: Since the label is no longer always the same as the label the callback must find the URL elsewhere. We put it in the user_data() of the menu item. We just copy the pointer to the DilloUrl structure, so we are assuming it will never be free()-ed while the menu is up. If I'm wrong about this the patch will need to be revised. We get a nice cleanup for free: we loose the mysterious magic constant 5 in the callback. (Bonus points if you can see what that magic constant is! Double bonus points if you can see why the code still worked when I erroneously left it in!) Please comment, Jeremy Henty

EAGAIN loop in IO_read
by furaisanjin＠gmail.com Nov. 21, 2009

Nov. 21, 2009

Hi all. This might be FreeBSD specific issue but I have EAGAIN loop in IO_read. I don't know anything yet why this happens but at some point read function keeps returning EAGAIN in IO_read and nothing is read. Do you have any idea how to investigate this further? I think this happens after DPI big change. Regards, furaisanjin

Q: why do we defer loading linked stylesheets?
by onepoint＠starurchin.org Nov. 20, 2009

Nov. 20, 2009

Why do we defer loading the CSS stylesheets named in <link> elements until the <head> element is closed? In html.cc, Html_tag_close_head() has the comment "charset is already set, load remote stylesheets now", but I don't understand the significance of the charset. I am asking because I'd like to patch Dillo to add @import-ed stylesheets to the browser window popup menu, just as it already does for <link>-ed stylesheets. At the moment this causes all sorts of code branches (is the @import in a <link>-ed file or an embedded <style>, if the latter, is it in the <head> or not). It would be much simpler to just immediately load every style file at the same time as it is added to html->ccsUrls , but that would change the behaviour to load <link>-ed styles immediately instead of at the end of the <head> element. Would that break anything? Regards, Jeremy Henty

weird font
by jcid＠dillo.org Nov. 18, 2009

Hi, On some sites I get weird fonts. Today I got to isolate the problem. See attached file. Here it displays like this: http://www.dillo.org/test/xmp2.png The embedded CSS says: pre { font-family: MS Courier New, Courier, monospace; } If I remove "MS Courier New", it works OK. Any clues? -- Cheers Jorge.-

Big changes in DPI framework and API
by jcid＠dillo.org Nov. 8, 2009

Nov. 8, 2009

Hi, Today the big work on DPI/DPIP was committed! The new framework and API is easier to use and more powerful. Lots of bugs and constraints were removed in the process. It was a lot of work but now is easier to fix and implement new things. After all the DPI framework was growing as new needs arose and it needed a rewrite since long ago. There're still pending patches and docs. Details are in the Changelog and Mercurial repo (hg log -v|less). One of them is the new select() based file dpi. It should be faster and use less resources (all happens in a single process now). Note: currently the code uses Internet Domain sockets instead of Unix domain sockets. This was initially meant for MINIX, but in the process several bugs were fixed, the code restructured, added more error handling and improved in general. In the future we may go back to UDS, but the cleanup gains will remain. Please test and enjoy. ...and remember to "dpidc stop" before "make install-strip". -- Cheers Jorge.-

[patch]: fix the default <th> style to match <td>
by onepoint＠starurchin.org Nov. 7, 2009

Nov. 7, 2009

I had assumed that the <th> style would be the same as the <td> style but with bold and centering added, so I was surprised to see that it's not. The <td> style has some border styling and padding that the <th> style does not, which seems wrong to me. I'm attaching a patch that brings the <th> style in line with my expectations, plus a test file and before/after screenshots. Please comment! Regards, Jeremy Henty

Style sheet question (centering and list-style-type)
by furaisanjin＠gmail.com Nov. 5, 2009

Nov. 5, 2009

Hi all. I'm wondering how this web page will be rendered. <HTML> <HEAD> <style></style> <TITLE>test</TITLE> </HEAD> <BODY> <div id="menu"> <ul> <li><a href="http://xxx.xxx.xxx/1">first second</a> </ul> </div> </BODY> </HTML> Recent dillo splits "first" and "second" words above and the first one is aligned on the left. Regards, furaisanjin
