dillo officially supported in Sylpheed-Claws
by Melvin Hadasht 17 Mar '03

17 Mar '03

Hi, Current cvs version of Sylpheed-Claws mail client (0.8.11claws14) officially supports Dillo to"safely" view html mail within the mail client window using the embedding facility of Dillo and a plugin technique in Sylpheed-Claws. The forthcoming 0.8.12claws will be the first public release to provide the Dillo plugin. (no timeline known, but it's a matter of weeks). I wrote "safely" between quotes, because IMHO there is a bug in Dillo when using the "-l" (or SpamSafe) command line option, as I pointed out in a previous mail (Message-Id: <20030221093243.435de32f.melvin.hadasht(a)free.fr>). I'll shortly post a patch for it in this ML. Thank you for your work. Cheers -- Melvin Hadasht

A Question and 2 Requests
by William Trenker 17 Mar '03

17 Mar '03

How do I tell exactly which sub-version of Dillo is running? I was running Dillo 0.7.1 and it crashed when I tried to save a bookmark. I wanted to be sure I had the latest Dillo before reporting the problem. I see that Dillo 0.7.1 has two sub-versions, 0.7.1.1 anmd 0.7.1.2. When I downloaded and extracted the latest tarball the resulting executable only shows 0.7.1 for the --version option. My requests are both based on my experience with the Opera browser. First, is it difficult to change Dillo so that I can copy-and-paste text from the browser window? I find it very handy to copy text from a web page to paste into a document, or an email, or whatever. Second, I really find Opera's mouse gestures for going forward and back very handy. To go to the previous page (back) you hold down the right mouse button and click the left button. To go forward you hold down the left mouse button and click the right button. With a little practice you can move back and forth between pages very quickly. Thanks for a great browser! Bill

another bug in bm_serv ?
by slymer＠slymer.org 17 Mar '03

17 Mar '03

I think bm_serv has a problem adding a bookmark when the title of the page is more than 8 chars in length. For example, I have visited the LAME "encoder" home page and I wanted too bookmark it. The title of the resulting bookmark is "LAME Ain" instead of "LAME Ain't an MP3 Encoder". Also if after adding it I try to set the name of the bookmark right bm_serv will act a bit funky by using 100% of my CPU and not sending the results of the modify command to dillo. I have to close dillo for bm_serv to behave normaly again and also if I check the bookmarks I see that modifying the bookmark's name worked afterall. -- Registered Linux user #298569 Let me do my TRIBUTE to FISHNET STOCKINGS ...

Re: hidden fields in forms broken?

Ah, and the user-typed password MUST not be parsed, so I set it as follows: ----------------------------------------------- Entities Parsing ----------------------------------------------- Hidden YES html-given password YES user-typed password NO ----------------------------------------------- That is: the same as links and mozilla.

bm_srv and (') character
by Jorge Arellano Cid 16 Mar '03

Hi, Sometime ago Raphael wrote: > i noticed one small thing: when clicking "bookmark this page" the > title of the bookmark is derived from the title of the html page. when > bookmarking a page with a "'" in it, every character, starting with > "'", gets cut out. for example "blue's news" is saved as "blue". Yes, that's a lack of implementation of character escaping. I gave it some thought and it seems like character suffing for the ' character could be enough for dpi tags. That is: <dpi cmd='add_bookmark' url='file:/tmp' title='tmp''s files'> Unfortunately I have no time now to code it! Cheers Jorge.-

ipv6 and dns threads
by Damien Couderc 16 Mar '03

16 Mar '03

You will found at the following URL patches from the openbsd port : http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/ports/www/dillo/patches/ Some of them fix ipv6 and threaded name resolution bugs. I've also informed jcid that display on sparc64 is fucked as the text is displayed one word per line. All comment to fix this bug is welcome even if it's just a place where to begin to find out what is going on. Regards, Damien

[Patch]: SpamSafe and <base href=..> bug fix
by Melvin Hadasht 15 Mar '03

15 Mar '03

Hi, The SpamSafe (-l command line) option is meant to refrain Dillo from retrieving remote resources (images). This works unless the original HTML contains a <base href=...> entity. In which case, the remote resources are unconditionally retrieved. In a older message (Message-Id: <20030221093243.435de32f.melvin.hadasht(a)free.fr>), I posted a corresponding test case. The attached patch fixes this misbehaviour by transmitting the URL_SpamSafe flag to the new BaseURL. The patch is against current CVS. Cheers. -- Melvin Hadasht

dillo on FreeBSD with --enable-ipv6
by Harold Gutch 15 Mar '03

15 Mar '03

Hi, when enabling IPv6 on FreeBSD, dillo completely stops to work. With such a binary, not even IPv4 works anymore. I'm not really sure if this is a bug in dillo, or if it's in FreeBSD, but the third parameter to connect() apparently needs to be sizeof(struct sockaddr), which it originally is not (in src/IO/http.c:307). The attached patch makes dillo work again if I compile it with IPv6-support. All of this might apply to the other BSDs as well, and also to other OSes. Also, I don't quite think that this patch should break anything, so it should be safe to apply it. Oh, please CC me in any upcoming mails in this thread, since I'm not subscribed to the list. bye, Harold
