[Dillo-dev]Bug #364
by Russell J. Wood Oct. 21, 2004

Oct. 21, 2004

Hello Dilldoers =b Would the said bug be because the Set-Cookie entity sent from advogato.org is not RFC compliant? Here is what I received: Set-Cookie: id=<data>; path=/; Expires=Thursday, 20-Oct-2005 11:57:18 GMT I'm under the impression the Expires attribute is meant to be as: Wdy, DD-MM-YYYY HH:MM:SS GMT Therefore, because the Weekday isn't in an abbreviated form it is being discarded?

[Dillo-dev]dillo-0.8.3-rc2 ready for download
by Jorge Arellano Cid Oct. 21, 2004

Oct. 21, 2004

Hi there, The new dillo-0.8.3-rc2 is ready for download and testing! It's basically the same as rc1, but with the race condition on the file dpi solved. It also uses a dpi server instead of a dpi filter so please beware and remove: /usr/local/lib/dillo/dpi/file/file.filter.dpi or /usr/lib/dillo/dpi/file/file.filter.dpi Actually it can work with both, but as we want to test the dpi server in the tarball (default) please be careful and be sure to remove the file filter dpi to be testing the file server dpi. (the other change is a minor improvement on the visited link color choosing algorithm). Feedback is very welcomed. After you say it's OK, it will be officially announced as dillo-0.8.3. Download URL: http://www.dillo.org/download/dillo-0.8.3-rc2.tar.bz2 -- Cheers Jorge.-

I received this email and the former on my personal email address. AFAIU you're on dillo-dev so I answered there, and to be sure this one goes to dillo-dev and to your address. Please use dillo-dev in the future.

Yes, the new parser (W3C + heuristics) solves this problem. RC2 will work and so 0.8.3. -- Cheers Jorge.-

[Dillo-dev]Hello to all and first question
by Roberto A. Foglietta Oct. 20, 2004

Hi, first of all: thank you very much for you great job in doing Dillo! Actually I'm trying to use it to display bus time table in a station. What I'm looking here? A /deprecated/ features! I need to reload _automatically_ pages on the bus-station screens, there are some ways to do that: 1) use deprecated meta refresh tag (not work, even in previous vers.) 2) modify Dillo code to accept a -r <n> flag which force him to reload every <n> seconds 3) writing a dpi plugin (???) The way n.1 could be the best for me because I could choose reload delay just from server inserting that deprecated flag in HTML code. But old version of Dillo like 0.2.4 - 0.6.1 don't do that. Simply moved on the specified url and nothing else about reload. I would find a solution should be usefull for everybody and quite simple to do. Like put a flag which enable that deprecated tag and do it working. Or it could be better do something else? Automatically reload should be very usefull in all embedded (but not pda) system which aim to keep some information on the screen refreshed. That for all. Cheers, -- Roberto A.

[Dillo-dev]Dillo Bug #577
by Russell J. Wood Oct. 20, 2004

Oct. 20, 2004

Hello Jason, I'm not sure how long ago you posted that bug, but it isn't a Dillo bug. The reason /usr/bin/dpid was executed is because it would have been before /usr/home/jason/bin in the PATH variable. Try moving your ~/bin directory before /usr/bin and see if you get the same results. Regards, Russell

[Dillo-dev]Bug #514
by Russell J. Wood Oct. 20, 2004

Oct. 20, 2004

Hello all. Bug number 514 isn't really a bug, per-se, due to the fact that an XHTML style script tag (<script src="java.js" type="text/javascript" />) isn't permitted in the head. Rendering it would be the bug, in my opinion. Regards, Russell

Yes. Before sending the dpi request to the server, a tentative connection is made to be sure it is running. If it's not, a new server is launched. Notwithstanding the untidiness exists ;), essentially it consists in giving a scary message instead of a more meaningful one. > Keep up the good work Thanks. We hope to. -- Cheers Jorge.-

Currently Dillo's cache is handling HTTP 30x answers as cacheable redirections. This is more a lack of implementation than a BUG (there's no code to handle 302 answers now). > > Based on the libwww-perl HEAD utility (which breaks out of the loop > after 7 redirects) and just telnetting to port 80, I've found the following: > > - They're using a 302 (temporary) redirect on both scripts > - They're setting a cookie on view_all_set.php. > - They're using relative URLs in the Location header (which I think is > technically not allowed, but has been used in practice for years.) Dillo handles relative locations. > Regardless of whether this setup is valid, it *does* make Dillo stop > responding. There is at least one bug here -- Dillo isn't detecting the > redirect loop and breaking out of it -- and possibly two (if it's > caching the 302/temporary status). Yes, there're two problems. Dillo hogging the CPU is a BUG that'd be better fixed for 0.8.3. The caching problem is a large issue that needs much more time to tackle. The cache problem is very interesting: if a browser happens to follow the SPEC, it becomes easy to abuse (e.g. pragma: no-cache advertising). OTOH, some sites can require to refresh some page contents in order to keep some meaningful state (HTTPS services usually use cache directives). Maybe as it happens with cookies, just allowing certain cites and honoring HTTP cache directives from that set only, is a good solution in the long term. I'll try to find a way to catch the redirection loop hog... -- Cheers Jorge.-

Dear Sebastian, thanks for the quick bugfix. On Sun, Oct 17, 2004 at 04:32:09PM +0200, Sebastian Geerken wrote: > The changes also make the viewport check, whether anchor names are > unique.

If it returns > TRUE, an appropriate message is shown, and the anchor is not added. Why don't you let a_Dw_gtk_viewport_add_anchor return a result: FALSE = ok, TRUE = anchor already defined and not changed Then a_Dw_page_add_anchor could pass this on to html.c, where my patch would produce the HTML warning. Otherwise one would look up the hash table twice, once in a_Dw_gtk_viewport_check_anchor and once in a_Dw_gtk_viewport_add_anchor.
