configure.in errors
by csoren＠isd.net Aug. 30, 2014

Aug. 30, 2014

This is from a fresh hg pull, running autogen.sh (or aclocal): configure.in:472: error: AC_SUBST: `src doc' is not a valid shell variable name configure.in:472: the top level autom4te: /usr/bin/m4 failed with exit status: 1 aclocal: autom4te failed with exit status: 1 changing the line AC_SUBST(src doc) to two lines of AC_SUBST(src) and AC_SUBST(doc) fixes it.

Last hg tip
by jcid＠dillo.org Aug. 30, 2014

Aug. 30, 2014

Hi Sebastian, I'm following closely our hg tip and some things are improving. OTOH the last tip sometimes drops the horizontal scroller bar leaving content out of reach. e.g. [1] [1] http://lwn.net/Articles/609892/#Comments -- Cheers Jorge.-

Rendering of illegal widths (incl "px", which used to be legal)
by james.from.wellington＠gmail.com Aug. 25, 2014

Aug. 25, 2014

Hello All, The row of three pictures on this web-page: http://www.avrprojects.net/index.php?view=article&id=61 renders badly in dillo, and differently from Chrome and firefox, because two of them have: width="180px" which the source-code for dillo 3.0.4 (html.cc at about line 1450) tells me used to be legal html, but isn't anymore. Dillo: - reports this as a web bug (with which I agree) - sets the length to auto (which I think means using the default width) To minimise the damage from illegal pages, without hiding the problem, I propose to assume that the numbers in all widths are sensible, and to complain about, but ignore, the trailing garbage. I also discovered that the bug message and another, suppressed, message had type problems, which I have addressed in a way that looks reasonable on osx. My proposed patch is below. Please be aware that Jorge and I started a conversation about whether this was the right thing to do, which wedged. I tested this proposed change by hacking up saved copies of the web-page in various ways. One of them, which makes a mess of the bug message, is attached, but they are not really a clean test-case. I am not aware of any automated test into which this change should be added. If someone can point me toward one, then I will think about how to test it cleanly. Regards, James. ----------------------- $ diff html.cc.orig html.cc 1483,1485c1483,1488 < if (*end && !isspace (*end)) { < BUG_MSG("Garbage after length: %s\n", attr); < l = CSS_CREATE_LENGTH(0.0, CSS_LENGTH_TYPE_AUTO); --- > while (end && isspace(*end)) > ++end; > if (end && *end) { > BUG_MSG("Garbage after length: '%s'; " > "ignoring garbage; using %g (possibly in pixels)\n", > attr, CSS_LENGTH_VALUE(l)); 1489c1492 < _MSG("a_Html_parse_length: \"%s\" %d\n", attr, CSS_LENGTH_VALUE(l)); --- > _MSG("a_Html_parse_length: \"%s\" %g\n", attr, CSS_LENGTH_VALUE(l)); ----------------------- ps I am contemplating getting involved in other trivial rendering problems, and thinking about the todos in dpid/main.c:204 and dpid/main.c:297. My interest in the todos is that dillo functions with gmail, but keeps (de facto) logging me out by discarding my session cookie. Could someone please point me to generic advice about: - which source tree I should be building (Jorge mentioned GROWS, but I don't know what that means) - how to use mercurial to develop multiple patches in parallel and keep them separate, while running a built program that includes all of them ?

Stretched out images
by fusionfile＠gmail.com Aug. 10, 2014

Aug. 10, 2014

In the current development version of Dillo (rev. 3873) images are sometimes scaled in a way that doesn't preserve the aspect ratio which make them look *really* ugly. For instance if I do a Google image search all images are stretched out horizontally: http://www.google.com/search?q=test How can we fix this? Regards, August

dillo slower than iceweasel on some pages
by andreas＠kemnade.info Aug. 6, 2014

Aug. 6, 2014

Hi, I made a shocking experience when visiting pages like http://www.wetteronline.de/wetter/berlin hg tip dillo takes 45 seconds. The last release takes a few seconds. Starting a fresh iceweasel I need around 17 seconds. I hope there is still much room to optimize and there is a possibility to have a fast browser even with floats. Greetings Andreas Kemnade

Dillo on the BLFS wiki
by onepoint＠starurchin.org Aug. 6, 2014

Aug. 6, 2014

I have updated the Dillo page on the Beyond Linux From Scratch (BLFS) project wiki [1] to version 3.0.4 . Are there any other changes I should make? Perhaps the description of CSS support needs updating - it has come a long way since that part of the page was written. Are there any new configuration files to describe? Please suggest changes and I'll update the page with them. Regards, Jeremy Henty [1]: http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/wiki/dillo3

abort failed queries
by eocene＠gmx.com July 31, 2014

July 31, 2014

I wanted to inform the user when a query failed by showing a message and greying out the stop icon instead of letting them wait forever and wonder. Patch attached. Examples: starurchin.org (Connection refused at present, anyway. Fails immediately.) auriga.wearlab.de (no server there, of course. Takes a minute or so.) dillo.asdfgh (leaves the DNS error msgs alone and greys the stop icon.)

x11 icon name
by eocene＠gmx.com July 22, 2014

July 22, 2014

On fvwm, there's a pager showing the different windows on the different desktops, and usually the (beginning of the) title of the window is written on the little depiction of the window. But with Dillo, the depiction frequently had no title written on it. And I'd ignored this for a long time. Yesterday, I noticed that it had "O" when I was reading something with a window title of "Dillo: Chapter 7. I/O" and I'm like, "Slashes. It doesn't like slashes..." It seems that fvwm is displaying an "icon name". In Fl_Window::label(), if you don't set an icon name, it takes the label and runs it through fl_filename_name(name) for...some reason, thereby trimming everything up to the final slash. I just tried the attached patch, and the icon name was shown properly. Or maybe it should just be set to "Dillo" and left that way. I don't know whether there are any strong conventions here. Does your window mgr like to use the "icon name" at all?

diilo in a cpu loop
by higuita7＠yahoo.co.uk July 22, 2014

July 22, 2014

Hi! I'm using the latest dillo mercurial version and when trying to see this page, dillo uses all cpu and keep using it: http://aventar.eu/2014/07/11/a-historia-do-banco-do-meu-avo/ Thanks for dillo higuita -- Naturally the common people don't want war... but after all it is the leaders of a country who determine the policy, and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in every country. -- Hermann Goering, Nazi and war criminal, 1883-1946
