Dillo (fwd)

Formerly I have used Netscape 4.x with disabled JavaScript on my old 60MHz SPARC machine - neither very fast nor very stable, but useable. But now with dillo: The small size and lightning fast startup (1s even on my ancient machine) makes me really happy! Thanks for writing this nice little piece of code (The world don't need bloated things like Mozilla). Regards, Micha -- Linux - May the source be with you!

Re: [Dillo-dev] Incorrect rendering of tables on fresco.org

Dillo can be started with the X11-Window ID of the window where it will be embedded. But I don't know of any non-gtk application that does this. AFAIK, newer xterms can be embedded in a gtk application (I did some tests) using the same mechanism. So I would say the other way (gtk app in a Xlib app) should be possible.

Incorrect rendering of tables on fresco.org

by TheStar

I have noticed that the tables at fresco.org are rendered incorrectly - in particular the "introduction" page. All the tables become _very_ thin - is this a non-standard page, or a to-be-worked bug in dillo? I understand that this site probably uses floating tables, but why are the tables so thin? Also, is it possible to use dillo as a plug-in in non-gtk apps? (ie: porting) I am not a fresco developer :) I'm just interested...

Seriously, the problem with making a non standards-conforming browser is that it encourages people not to bother to follow the standards. John.

Then add the following into .mailcap : text/html; dillo %s; nametemplate=%s.html That's what I have :-) It may work for other MUA's as well. Optinally, add a test.

space in urls

by Ami Fischman

Is there some reason why spaces are dropped from URLs in dillo? Most other browsers will convert such spaces to %20 (and similarly with other illegal URI characters) automagically. It's a convinience which some webmasters take for granted (and which breaks browsing with dillo). Cheers, -- Ami Fischman usenet(a)fischman.org

feature request

by Kenneth D. Weinert

I just wondered if there was a method to force dillo to treat a file given on the command line as HTML. I'd like to use dillo to view html attachments from my mail program, but since the temporary file doesn't have .htm[l] as an extension (actually, it is extension free) so dillo just displays the html instead of interpreting it. I don't mind working on a patch if this capability doesn't already exist, but before embarking down that path I thought I'd check with the experts as I didn't see a reference to this "problem".
