[PATCH] Fix build on GNU/hurd via dynamic allocation
by João Pedro Malhado Sept. 1, 2026

Sept. 1, 2026

Dear Dillo Maintainers, I noticed that the Dillo 3.3.0 Debian package build was failing on GNU/hurd due to the PATH_MAX macro not being defined on that platform. This is a common portability issue on the platform, and the following page indicates why the macro is not defined in GNU/hurd https://www.gnu.org/software/hurd/faq/foo_max It was pointed out to me that commit b43ab26e81a1e399e3cb148b972a284518aa4d39 has addressed the hurd build failure already, but it does so by simply defining PATH_MAX to an arbitrary value. As per the page above, the preferred way to address the issue by allocating the size of the path dynamically. I submit the following patch to your consideration. The patch applies to version 3.3.0 of the file present in Debian, before the above mentioned commit. Best regards, João

Support <dialog>, at least at the level of recognizing in CSS
by Artyom Bologov Aug. 31, 2026

Aug. 31, 2026

Hi y’all, I realize that supporting some elements, like <dialog>, is out of scope for Dillo. However, it would be nice to recognize these elements, at least in stylesheets, so that I can at least do dialog { display: none; } Right now, the dialog is just displayed unconditionally, because, it seems, such a style rule does not apply to it. Check https://aartaka.me for an example of such dialog not hiding. So, is this it fixable? Thanks, -- Artyom Bologov https://aartaka.me

[PATCH 0/2] Fix crashes seen on subpages of https://www.pythontutorial.net/
by Andreas Kemnade Aug. 29, 2026

Aug. 29, 2026

There are input type="button" without value there, do not crash. The main repo seems not to have a pull request functionality, so I am using the good old git format-patch way, so it can be applied via git am.
