I've sort of idly considered what it might take to be able to tab between the various links and form controls, but was stopped by "Hmm, how would you know to break out of a <textarea> again?". (Trying firefox now, I see that I can't type tabs into textareas; it always takes me to the next focusable element. I'm a bit surprised.)

Query on interfacing IMX27 keyboard with Dillo browser.

by rmarathe11＠gmail.com

Hello, I am using Dillo as a browser on IMX27 system. (working with latest CVS LTIB code). I wanted to interface imx27 Keyboard with the browser so that the UP/DOWN/etc. keys work on the browser pages. I have been using this with Touchscreen and I wanted to know if the Keyboard can be interfaced too. Presently, I saw that on any Linux installation with Dillo on it, only mouse works as mouse can be moved from one link to other link. But keyboard was not working. I would want to make the Keyboard UP/DOWN arrows take me up and down the links on a page in the Dillo browser. Is it possible to do this ? regards, Rajesh Marathe.

want to test some experimental cookies code?

by corvid＠lavabit.com

In recent days, I've been making a version of cookies dpi that follows the current cookies draft of the http state working group. I haven't tested it exhaustively yet, but if anyone who uses cookies wants to try it and watch the msgs and so on, let me know. As for how much validity or meaningfulness this draft has, let's see... - They've made the decision to describe the way things currently behave, having learned from the bitter experience of others who made RFC 2109 and RFC 2965*. In 2010, no one has any way to be King of Cookies. They write testcases and try all of the major browsers and decide what they want to write down in their spec when there are differences. - On their mailing list, from the user agents, they have an opera guy, the curl guy, and someone related to firefox, although I didn't take any notice of whether he has a position of authority in firefox or not. - Of course there will be changes. Smallish, I think. A cookie set without an explicit domain goes only to that domain. A cookie with a domain attribute is sent to that domain and any subdomain. A .domain attr cookie can go to domain. As for how to decide to reject cookies for, e.g., .co.uk, I don't think they're ever going to say too much. A cookie can be set for any path, regardless of the url path of the page setting it. Paths are matched when selecting cookies to return, though. Path-matching does work by slashes instead of simple prefixes. An http page can set a secure cookie (just like currently). An example of the little things that may change are that a cookie that is just VALUE instead of NAME=VALUE is currently allowed, but it's not decided for good yet. There are corner cases such as this that maybe they could make illegal without rendering themselves irrelevant. * To be precise, the main author of the RFCs has written that it was at least initially reasonable to think that what they were putting together in rfc 2109 would be adopted by user agents.

Turned out to be a stupid bug in style.cc.

Yes, that sounds good. We should distinguish between remote / embedded CSS and user agent and user stylesheet though. For the latter two we don't need any restrictions. We might also do some other restrictions on remote CSS in the future, e.g. possible dillo specific extensions should also be only accessible via the user agent and user stylesheet.

css :visited and security

by corvid＠lavabit.com

The other day, I saw another of those pages about using :visited and display in order to allow others to learn whether the user has visited a page. (I remember Johannes pointing to a page about this last year, too.) I wonder whether it would be sensible to have a dillorc option defaulting to NO for whether to use :visited.

Javascript

by iveqy＠iveqy.com

Hi, I'm a big dillo fan and a fltk user. Dillo is the fastest browser I ever seens and I strongly like it (too bad fltk 1.3 isn't used but that I believe is to blame the fltk team for). Anyway, now that CSS is almost done, I wonder how the future for javascript support looks. The old discussions I found about this looks to be outdated with the CSS changes. I also found a patch to allow javascript in dillo, but that patch didn't seemed to use the dpi-interface. Would it be possible to use dpi to use the v8 enginge for dillo? -- Regards iveqy

If there is e.g. <div style="background-color:red">foo</div> dillo creates a textblock widget for the <div>, which will have a style set with backgoundColor red. Then the word foo is added. The question is what style should the word get? If it would get the same style as the textblock, we would draw a red background for each word again, which is unnecessary as the textblock has a red bg already. More important, it would simply be wrong for things like borders. We want the border around the whole <div>, not around each word. So basically for words we use the style of the containing textblock with resetValues() called plus some minor modifications to make things like <span style="background-color:red">foo</span> work, where <span> does not add a new widget to the textblock (this is the inheritBackgroundColor stuff). > > Hmm. I just changed the first td to style="cursor:help; color:red", > and it colored the first td correctly, and now the rest of the table > shows the wait cursor. Interesting. Interesting indeed :-) I will have a look at this. Cheers, Johannes
