patch: savefile url name

by corvid＠lavabit.com

Anyway, here's a patch that I've had sitting around for a while. I have a bad habit of hitting space to page down when the Location field still has focus, which would break things when trying to save...

Pending issues

by corvid＠lavabit.com

Jorge, is there any chance of my various patches getting looked at in the near future? I feel reluctant to start playing with css until then.

Pending issues

by jcid＠dillo.org

Hi there, For those of you that wrote me willing to join the project as developers, and to the older ones too ;), here's a pending list of simple matters that need patches. Just in case! 1.- Check the "pending issues" dillo thread in FLTK' site: http://fltk.org/newsgroups.php?gfltk.general+T (search for "dillo") there you'll find a few and some hints too. 2.- CLI From dillo1: $ dillo1 --help Usage: dillo [OPTIONS] [URL|FILE]... Options: -x, --xid XID Open first Dillo window in an existing GtkSocket which window ID is XID (decimal). -v, --version Display version info and exit. -h, --help Display this help text and exit. -f, --fullwindow Start in full window mode: hide address bar, navigation buttons, menu, and status bar. -l, --local Don't follow links for this URL(s). -g, -geometry GEO Set initial window position where GEO is <width>x<height>{+-}<x>{+-}<y> -D, --debug-rendering Draw additionaly several lines in a web page, representing its structure. For debugging. URL URL to browse. FILE Local FILE to vie We need to mimic this. The only complex point is XID option. We don't yet know how to do window embedding by XID with FLTK2. Asking in FLTK general may help. I hope this gets somebody started. /me goes back, to CSS. -- Cheers Jorge.-

Few more dillo issues

by sandshrew＠gmail.com

Issues: 1) ssl dpi looping when entering: http://www.elitehackers.info/forums 2) logging into kde forum (forum.kde.org) and gmail (which I reported earlier) doesn't seem to work for same reasons. I guess there should be much more similar cases.

Yes, let's take dw as an example. The documentation is really good there. > > > Bottom line: Great, let's get started! Excellent. Here's my todo list: * Adjust CssProperty::Value. As Sebastian has stated "CssValue (is) a union, which represents values exactly in the way they have been parsed" In addition to the values from style.hh it must be able to hold relative values (e.g. "bolder" for font weights). The translation to actual values is then done in StyleEngine::apply (). * Add support for pseudo classes and use it to change the color of visited links in Html_tag_open_a(). * Transform the rest of html.cc, table.cc, and form.cc to use styleEngine instead of creating styles itself. * Port the CSS parser code from dillo-0.8.0-css-3. Any help or comments are welcome! Make sure to have a look at dillo-0.8.0-css-3 as it contains a lot of useful code! Cheers, Johannes

Hi, We've been arranging some CSS things behind the scenes with Johannes (he'll forward some past mails here soon).

On the current code, basically it looks OK to me. i.e. we can continue working from that basis (having in mind that it's still in a flux state and that a validation is pending on whether the model is able to handle the current functionality in html.cc). My main comment is that the code needs more comments! :) Accurate comments are written when the code is developed (every detail is in the brain then). I've tried in the past to develop first and comment later, and found it only works OK for small code projects. As with CSS we don't have a main expert (yet), the team will be trying to understand and develop at the same time, and thus comments are very necessary. Even something like "I don't know how to implement this part" helps! I'd suggest to use the same format that's in css.cc. e.g. /** \todo dummy only */ with a view to integrate it smoothly with doxygen docs. in the future. Some specific examples: 1.- What do these functions do? - style0() - startElement() - endElement() 2.- On memory handling, there are some places with: // html->styleEngine->style () = // Style::create (HT2LT(html), &style_attrs); // old_style->unref (); or // (html->styleEngine->style ())->unref (); Why are they commented and left in the code? Is proper memory handling pending, is there a design decision to be made before getting rid of them? 3.- With regard, for instance, to font_factor and visited link color. Do they belong to buildUserAgentStyle() or buildUserStyle() or elsewhere? 4.- strdup/free should be dStrdup/dFree (Please let me use this extremely simple case to make my first Hg patch :-) I know this was just a prototype for the CSS implementation idea, but considering that we don't have any better, and that we agreed on it, now it has attained the status of "official CSS merge effort". ;-) From now comments are paramount, and we may eventually get to a dw-like quality docs in the future. Bottom line: Great, let's get started! -- Cheers Jorge.-

Dillo too fast?

I have always assumed they tweaked their spyware detection, screwed it up and started generating lots of false positives, then reverted the change. It certainly didn't have anything to do with my browsers. Regards, Jeremy Henty

Did anyone else encounter this from google? Not sure if this is something specific in dillo's network behaviour... > We're sorry... > ... but your query looks similar to automated requests from a computer virus or spyware application. To protect our users, > we can't process your request right now. It's at least the second time I got this now, after issuing a search, seeing that there was a typo, resissuing. It is not that rare that this happens, but it is rare that google slaps me in the face for it ... and I _think_ it has been dillo before, too. But not sure. Anyhow, does someone know what is behind that "virus check"? > If you're continually receiving this error, you may be able to resolve the problem by deleting your Google cookie and > revisiting Google. For browser-specific instructions, please consult your browser's online support center. Hm... I don't have any cookie from 'em. Perhaps that is the key? Alrighty then, Thomas.
