We could try it and see whether all of the stupid software (or at least most of the stupid software) likes that order.

Yes, I was looking at wrong place. The problems of my DVD recorder are 1 it doesn't allow extra space characters between '='. 2 uri needs to have quote 3 the order of parameter seems to have strict rule (username, realm, nonce, uri, cnonce, nc, algorithm, response, qop) Both IE and firefox follow 1 and 2 but only IE follows 3.

This is what a_Digest_compute_digest() does.

RFC 2617 (http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2617.html) mentions how A1 is calculated in 3.2.2.2 and MD5-sess requires more parameters and A1 is calculated only once but A1 is also calculated for MD5 and none specified algorithm.

Is there a site that isn't working? a_Digest_compute_digest() calculates A1 for MD5 and MD5-sess, but I disabled digest auth for MD5-sess in Auth_parse_digest_challenge_cb() because http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_auth_digest.html#authdigestalgorit… said "MD5-sess is not correctly implemented yet", which prevented me from giving it much testing.

Hi all. It seems that current digest authentication doesn't supportsA1 calculation. Is there any plan when this is implemented? Regards, furaisanjin

This is an interesting idea... Funny how the article was able to make us (in dillo-dev) put some atention in style.css again. I just discovered that the file is re-read each time. There's no need to load another dillo to test changes to it. Just reload the page you're viewing. If the tools menu holds a "My CSS" menu entry, holding a list of custom style sheets (.css files in ~/.dillo/), and allowing to apply it on-the-fly (similar to "Panel Size"), it would be quite handy. We may include some pre-made ones, as the dark background Rogut suggested (readability), larger font, etc. > [...] > When browsing at night, I sometimes use the following snippet with > Firefox.

The snippet above could use some comments within each statement though, so a user can modify the background and font colors at first glance here though. (In other words, I've seen some really nice commented xml/css stylesheets from News sites which I could easily read. ;-) -- Roger http://rogerx.freeshell.org/
