Bug #502 solved
by Frédéric Bothamy Oct. 24, 2003

Oct. 24, 2003

Hello, I submitted the bug #502 a while ago about some PNG images not displayed correctly. And today someone finally gave the explanation: the Debian web server sends GIFs images with image/png content type (and png extension) (for more details, see http://lists.debian.org/debian-www/2003/debian-www-200310/msg00133.html) Could someone, please, close this (non-)bug? Sorry for not testing this issue enough and thanks for this wonderful, lightweight browser. Fred PS: for anyone interested in using Dillo 0.7.3 with tab+frame patch (v10) under Debian woody (i386 only), I have an unofficial package available at http://olympie.dyndns.org/debian/debs/dillo_0.7.3-1.3_i386.deb.

Hi there! After the previous answers from Michael Sweet (forwarded to this list), Sebastian rose a key question: > GtkLayout is mainly there to overcome the limited size of X > windows. When I started to develop Dw, I first tried to get a similar > result by writing anything myself, but finally gave it up. Look at the > Gtk+ documentation, GtkLayout does some weird things which may not be > possible with FLTK. Once again, here're the answers.

This is an issue for us because of large > scrolled html pages (or should I say books?). Are you referring to the 16-bit coordinate issues? If so, those are also present on WIN32... FLTK 1.1.x uses 16-bit integers for coordinates, so to support views larger than 16-bits you'll need to do a little work yourself. For example, Fl_Help_View offsets the X,Y values by the current scroll position and does gross clipping of blocks to support really long HTML files. FLTK 2.x uses 32-bit integers for coordinates and doesn't have this limitation. It will also be providing device classes to support X11, PostScript, PDF, etc. rendering in a device- independent way. >>> 2.- Unicode, UTF-8. >>> This was the main reason for considering GTK2.

AFAIK, 2.0 doesn't have it yet. Bill Spitzak is probably a better person to talk to on that issue, as I've been sticking to maintaining 1.1.x (lack of time on my part - too many other projects! :) > If so, can it be patched or should we use 1.1.4 + utf-8 patch? > > In other words, which version should we start testing with? > What's your advice to structure it (i.e on which widgets should > we base HTML rendering)? Use 1.1.4 + UTF-8 patch; 2.0 is still in a state of flux, and until we have the new device classes in place there may still be some API changes. If you write to 1.1.x now, the 1.x compatibility headers in 2.0 should be enough to support your apps with either release. You'll probably want to subclass Fl_Group and use the existing Fl_Scrollbar classes to provide your scrollbars. The Fl_Help_View widget might serve as a guide for your porting effort, as it supports a limited subset of HTML and does all of the scrolling, linking, etc. stuff. -- ______________________________________________________________________ Michael Sweet, Easy Software Products mike at easysw dot com Printing Software for UNIX http://www.easysw.com

CSS
by Sebastian Geerken Oct. 23, 2003

Oct. 23, 2003

Hi! At <http://www.dillo.org/CSS.html>, you'll find an updated version of a document I posted quite a while ago. What this text describes, is partly implemented (mainly to test the critical aspects of the design), I may soon make a tarball public, after some cleanups. The further development is unclear, since some parts have been rewritten, incremental development is difficult, and several general tests are necessary (performance, functionality etc). Sebastian

Hi all, I noticed the following behaviour, with 0.7.3 and also with the current CVS (just checked out the latest version an hour ago). When I type the following at the location bar: http://www.cnn.com/ Opens the webpage (offcourse) www.cnn.com Opens the webpage (it prepends http://) http://localhost/ Connects to my webserver localhost Connects to my webserver (prepends http://) http://localhost:2317/ It connects to my geneweb server localhost:2317 It fails, saying ERROR: unsupported protocol Is this normal and expected behaviour, or considered a bug? Opera, for example, prepends http:// and all works like expected. --Ivo

[PATCH] Version 12 of tab/frame/kbnav patch, solves problem with Tab
by Frank de Lange Oct. 23, 2003

Oct. 23, 2003

Hi'all, The next version (12) of my tab/frame/keyboard navigation patch is ready (see bottom of this message for download instructions). No big new features this time, just a useability fix for the Tab key and an update to the latest CVS. Tab now does what you'd expect it to do, cycle through form widgets. I'll spare you the usual list of comments on this release, it would be identical to last release's list anyway... Download instructions ===================== The patch is made against 20031017/11:26GMT CVS. Do not forget to run ./autogen.sh after applying the patch. You can find the patch on the usual (ad-happy, use an ad-blocking proxy or sane browser) site: http://www.geocities.com/ikbenfrank/ More specifically: Dillo 0.8.0-pre (CVS) ===================== http://www.geocities.com/ikbenfrank/dillo-20031017-tabs.patch.gz size: 85658 bytes (gzipped, as downloaded) 373460 bytes (uncompressed) md5sum: be0618ac0136fafd9f7f91ce8a4db142 (gzipped, as downloaded) 41438b3b27bf45f23b6a9069eee37cb6 (uncompressed) As always, check the site for the most recent version Cheers//Frank -- WWWWW ________________________ ## o o\ / Frank de Lange \ }# \| / \ \ `--| _/ <Hacker for Hire> \ `---' \ +46-734352015 / \ frank(a)unternet.org / `------------------------' [ "Omnis enim res, quae dando non deficit, dum habetur et non datur, nondum habetur, quomodo habenda est." ]

A short potpourri
by Eythan Weg Oct. 22, 2003

Oct. 22, 2003

Hi, I have read that people use dillo to read documents, long documents, and perhaps whole books, or chapters... In such cases there comes a time when a use of a dictionary is a must. Is it possible to have a dpi that will allow for the running of any shell command on a highlighted portion of the screen? In this example running a dictionary on a word? The output of the command would go into a new tab, or window or split of the current window, horizontally or vertically, depending on the key-binding. On another vein, I have two problems with version 8-pre of about two weeks ago patched with the tab-frame feature (I compiled yesterday's version with the new patch, but could not figure how to start the dpis... can someone tell how in some more details, please?) The first is over-tabbing. For example browsing http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gnomemeeting-list/ choose any thread and it opens on a new tab. Read any post and again it opens in a new tab. The second is that copy and/or paste do not work reliably. I am not sure this is dillo's issue though. Sincerely, eythan
