[Patch]: SpamSafe and <base href=..> bug fix
by Melvin Hadasht March 15, 2003

March 15, 2003

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 March 15, 2003

March 15, 2003

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

Hi! I've committed the text selection. There are still some glitches, look at src/selection.c in the sources for the known ones. Please check it out and test it. Sebastian PS: Full screen mode is now done by clicking on the button in the lower right corner.

Speaking of dpi, it seems that only one plugin (that must be called bm_something) can exist in the current implementation. When will we be able to register multiple plugins? Thanks Eric

Incorrect rendering of tables on fresco.org
by TheStar March 14, 2003

March 14, 2003

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...

https approaches?
by Ami Fischman March 14, 2003

March 14, 2003

Hi there, SSL support is one of the biggest lacks in dillo for me. To that end, I'm thinking of adding it in. Without knowing the dillo codebase, I see two obvious options: 1) Add a src/IO/https.c file based on src/IO/http.c 2) Move http.c to using openssl's BIO's which can support either encrypted or clear traffic, as well as filters. 1 seems much more straightforward and will result in quicker https support, but will cause there to be a whole hell of a lot of code duplication between http.c & https.c. 2 seems like the more "moral" choice and will make dillo better, at the cost of making openssl necessary for dillo builds. Is anyone currently working on ssl support in dillo? Are you using either of the above two options? If the answer to the first question is negative, do people have feelings about code duplication vs. reliance on openssl? (of course, there's a third option of #ifdef'ing the hell out of http.c, adding BIO support that can be compiled out leaving the current plain socket-based code, but that would probably be more of a nightmare to maintain than 1) above).

VERY URGENT
by Dr. Mrs. Mariam Abacha March 14, 2003

March 14, 2003

Dear Friend, I am Dr. Mrs. Mariam Abacha, wife to the late Nigerian Head of state, General Sani Abacha who died on the 8th of June 1998 while still on active service for our Country. l am contacting you with the hope that you will be of great assistance to me, I currently have within my reach the sum of 24 million U.S dollars cash which l intend to use for investment purposes outside Nigeria. This money came as a result of a payback contract deal between my husband and a Russian firm in our country's multi-billion dollar Ajaokuta steel plant. The Russian partners returned my husbands share being the above sum after his death. Presently, the new civilian Government has intensified their probe into my husbands financial resources which has led to the freezing of all our accounts, local and foreign, the revoking of all our business licences and the arrest of my First son. In view of this I acted very fast to withdraw this money from one of our finance houses before it was closed down. I have deposited the money in a security company with the help of very loyal officials of my late husband. No record is known about this fund by the government because there is no documentation showing that we received such funds. Due to the current situation in the country and government attitude to my family, I cannot make use of this money within, thus I seek your help in transferring this funds out of the sub-African region. Bearing in mind that you may assist me, l have decided to part with 20% of the total sum. Your URGENT response is needed. Please include your personal phone and fax number. Regards, Dr. Mrs. Mariam Abacha
