Chinese and french characters in web pages

by cjarry＠cjarry.org

Dear Dillo developers, First of all, I want to thank you for the great web browser dillo is: it is very fast, has most of the features I want and the rendering is improving greatly (I am using hg version currently). I would like to use dillo to view web pages written in chinese and also pages written in french. Currently, I cannot do both. To view web pages in chinese, I set the following fonts in my .dillo/dillorc: font_serif="WenQuanYi Bitmap Song" font_sans_serif="WenQuanYi Bitmap Song" The problem is that french characters like ?, ? or ? are not displayed with this font. To view web pages in french, I set the following fonts: font_serif="DejaVu Serif" font_sans_serif="DejaVu Sans" But then, chinese characters are displayed as empty squares. Is there a way to read both languages in the same instance of dillo? Thanks, Christophe

Downloading user agent

by andreas＠kemnade.info

Hi, I am thinking about the User-Agent which is sent during downloads. Some sites block wget, probably because they do not want to learn robots.txt and do not like a tool doing massdownloads. So if you use dillo to download from such sites, you get a 403 forbidden. If wget would use dillo as user-agent (can be set via a parameter) in such cases, there would be no problem and it is not really wrong. Regards, Andreas

Interestingly it works ok without the > enclosing <div> If anyone running Dillo 3.0.4 is interested I have made a patch which fixes the image scaling issue (see attachment). With the test document below, the Dillo logo should keep its aspect ratio when the Dillo browser window is resized. <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> <title>Test</title> </head> <body> <div><img src="http://www.dillo.org/db1.png" alt="Dillo logo" width="50%" /></div> </body> </html> -- August

With this info, I withdraw my patch. Perhaps this could be added to the dillo help page. Sebastian

I'm not sure where this comes from, "apt > dist-uprade" took several hours. I don't have Helvetica. However, I have installed ttf-mscorefonts-installer and if the CSS says font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif Iceweasel seems to chooses Arial (from mscorefonts) whereas Dillo chooses the default DejaVu sans-serif font. -- August

See... > http://www.dillo.org/screenshots/disable_antialiasing.png Not looked at it in detail, but since most fonts render nicely, I assume that the Debian package is indeed build with Xft support.

Is Debian's libfltk1.3-dev built with the xft option enabled? If not, then ugly fonts are to be expected. See... http://www.dillo.org/screenshots/disable_antialiasing.png Is there a way to do a custom build of Debian's libfltk1.3-dev? -- Walter Dnes <waltdnes at waltdnes.org>
