perhaps an iterator bug
by corvid＠lavabit.com 03 Sep '09

03 Sep '09

I was trying the new search functionality a bit more and found this (it's also present in my Dec 2008 dillo*). With the page: <table> <tr><td>no close-tr <tr><td>has a close-tr</tr> <tr><td>here's another line</tr> </table> if I search for "rh", it finds one instance of it split between the second and third table rows. * My older dillos were lost in a tragic "I don't think I need my CVS stuff anymore" accident.

If there is a handheld style sheet available and dillo is running on a handheld, it would be a shame not to use it. I'm hoping that the page author would have the sense to supply something for type "all". > Maybe it's more practical to provide custom stylesheets (as the > current "style.css". e.g. small_screen.css, print.css) and to > allow switching among them from the "Tools" menu. > > What do you think? I think someone using handheld would want to use both the page author's handheld-specific code and a user style suitable for their device. I'll send this to the list in case anyone with experience using such devices with the web has opinions to share.

[patch] Improving keyboard shortcuts for tab navigation
by tim.nieradzik＠gmx.de 13 Jun '09

13 Jun '09

This patch adds keyboard shortcuts for the tabs 0 - 9. You can reach them by pressing Ctrl concurrently with the number number of the tab you would like to see. Thus, for the first tab this is Ctrl-0. Alternatively, you can press Ctrl-Home. To get to the last tab, simply press Ctrl-End. In addition the modifier for moving left and right between tabs has been changed from Shift to Ctrl because it makes sense to have an unified modifier for all tab movement operations. --Tim

experimental patch: Re: dillo2 wrapping Chinese
by corvid＠lavabit.com 06 Jun '09

06 Jun '09

dillo people: It turns out that dillo handles Chinese quite badly because the text doesn't contain whitespace (BUG 827). It looks like Japanese is that way as well. 1) People using East Asian languages: Does this do roughly the right thing? I've read that there are picky rules about certain individual characters, but I just mean in general here. 2) Thoughts on optimization are welcomed. littlebat: For some reason, I was thinking that whitespace was required between words in dillo, but I misremembered. littlebat wrote: > Hi, > Thanks for the work on Dillo. > > I think it isn't a good idea to resolve long chinese line wrapping > problem by inserting space after punctuation mark("?" or "?" or "?", > etc..). > > Here is a "Dillo2 Wrap Long Chinese Line Test" page: > http://www.learndiary.com/en/dillo2-wrap-long-chinese-line-test.htm . > Open it with Firefox or IE, then open it with Dillo2, You will see the > different of wrapping long chinese line between them. > > Note, unlike english, there is no space between Chinese characters.

http authentication: http digest
by 4winter＠informatik.uni-hamburg.de 09 Apr '09

09 Apr '09

Hey folks :) attached is a patch that implements http digest authentication. Some thoughs: * add-md5.patch adds md5.{c,h}, a BSD licensed md5 implementation by L. Peter Deutsch from [0] * the digest logic resides in digest.c * I adapted a lot of challenge parsing code from Jeremys basic auth to better suit my needs, sorry for the big patch, but this reduces code duplication (even mailman thinks the patch is too big >,<) * rfc2617 is a bit fuzzy about the quoted strings in the challenge. strings are enclosed in double quotes, but it is not specified (or I overlooked it..) how double quotes within this string should be escaped. I intuitively escaped them with a \, and apache2 plays along nicely. So does my code. Funny thing is, neither one of the mayor browsers (I tested ff, epiphany, opera, konqueror, ie6) can cope with realms containing quotes... Am I missing something here? * http digest can provide integrity protection for the request body by computing a hash over the request body, but I have no pointer to the request body, only the request URL. We might need to pass the whole request object (is there such a thing?) to the auth code instead of just the url. The code is there, just the pointer is missing. The code in auth.c will select the method without integrity protection for now, hoping that the server will accept both auth and auth-int. * there is a memory leak (well, at least one that I am aware of) in a_Auth_get_auth_str (grep 'this leaks memory' auth.c). This function is called for each request dillo makes to a host using http auth. For basic authentication the challenge response is always the same, so a reference to that string is stored in the realm and it is freed with its destruction. For digest authentication a different response is needed for each request (the request uri and a nonce_counter needs to be updated), so a new string has to be generated for each request. This should be easily fixable, but I didn't looked into that yet (need to touch the callers code). That's it :) feedback is welcome!

tools button name (a very trivial matter)
by corvid＠lavabit.com 29 Mar '09

29 Mar '09

I was going to update the dillorc comment for load_images (still mentions the old dedicated button), and... to developers, it's in the Tools button's menu now, but to users, it's the Settings button because that's what the tooltip says. We should standardize on one name or the other.

google login redirect
by furaisanjin＠gmail.com 26 Mar '09

26 Mar '09

Hi all. I have noticed that google login redirect is something like this. <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0; url='http://www.google.com/ .....> So generated redirect template looks like <table width='100%'><tr><td bgcolor='#ee0000'>Warning:</td> <td bgcolor='#8899aa' width='100%'> This page uses the NON-STANDARD meta refresh tag.<br> The HTML 4.01 SPEC (sec 7.4.4) recommends explicitly to avoid it.</td></tr> <tr><td bgcolor='#a0a0a0' colspan='2'>The author wanted you to go <a href=''http://www.google.com/ ... So dillo just navigates to the same page. This is the reason why we can't login. Regards, furaisanjin
