[Dillo-dev]Thanks, but keep working
by John Summerfield Aug. 9, 2004

Aug. 9, 2004

I'm glad to have found Dillo, I'd been hoping to find a light-weight browser for use on (small) servers where it's necessary to configure routers, firewalls and printers using their http interfaces. I really do not want to install Mozilla or such for these uses, they are far too enormous. I could use lynx, elinks, links or w3m, except that none of them works well either, and none has a pretty face:-). I don't mind installing a lightweight GUI desktop so as to be able to use GUI configuration tools. Dillo shows promise, but before it is useful it to me has to support 1. Basic authentication. This is essential. 2. Javascript. Some features of Billion 741GE ADSL routers require it 3. Frames. Probably not essential, but it surely will improve navigation. -- Cheers John Summerfield

Rendering chinese, alone, is more than a challenging task for a graduation project. As you know, we plan to port Dillo to FLTK, once that's done, rendering Chinese would require two things: a) Add the glyph logic module for Chinese to FLTK. b) Make sure Dillo works OK with it (FORMS, etc). You can also help us with the port to FLTK. > By the way, would you please tell me what documention should I > read if I want to do those work? I can't find enough documents on > www.dillo.org. Now I'm reading the code of Dillo. The new FAQ in our site will suggest several links (that's plenty of documentation, only for the i18n subject). Then follow the whole thread on FLTK. It shows the feasibility analysis. Please note that it's an abridgement, not all the emails we exchanged with the FLTK team are there! It was a large work. Beware that one of the worst mistakes to do in SW projects is to underestimate the complexity. My advice for you is to try Chinese rendering. That is: a) Add the glyph logic module for Chinese to FLTK. b) Make sure Dillo works OK with it (FORMS, etc). c) Help us with the port to FLTK. Cheers Jorge.-

i'm writing a web based application for my friend using dillo as the primary interface client. dillo is being too hyperactive with the page caching that it uses, and i have to hit reload every time i go back to a page that has had data in the database change. how do i get dillo to not cache those pages and force it to request them everytime so i can always get current data? thanks!! -brian -- "The cats tend to administer themselves, and contrary to the expected facts, the house and everything in it was installed for their benefit." -- Nic Clews

[Dillo-dev][patch] dillo-cvs fails to detect OpenSSL on FreeBSD
by Thomas-Martin Seck July 31, 2004

July 31, 2004

Hi all, I am the current maintainer of the dillo FreeBSD port. While looking at the current CVS version, I noticed that it fails to detect OpenSSL on FreeBSD (which has OpenSSL 0.9.7d in the base system) because the test program does not link to libcrypto, which causes the linking of the test program to fail with "unresolved symbols". The following patch "works for me", i.e. dillo compiles and the https filter does not error out directly (well, it failed anyway with "The remote certificate cannot be trusted" when I tried accessing <https://www.iks-jena.de> but I guess that is to be expected right now?). Anyway, keep up the good work!

[Dillo-dev]RE: MGDillo-porting Dillo to MiniGUI,are you interesting?
by david feldman July 27, 2004

July 27, 2004

Hello, Since I began using dillo (about a month or so), this is the second time I've seen the topic of a light(er) weight toolkit (the former was fltk, I believe.) I have been considering if it is possible to port either (miniGUI or fltk) or something similar to windows CE; there is a problem in the world of windows CE where the browser microsoft supplied (Pocket IE 3 for CE 2.11 and Pocket IE 4 for CE 3.0) is essentially obsolete (the problem is so severe on CE 2.11 that those machines aren't really robust enough even to access commercial hotspot websites that depend on some degree of competent web client.) There isn't as far as I know a browser under current development targeted at the Windows CE world (that is, something really independent of Pocket IE.) When I first saw Dillo it occured to me that a "Dillo for widows CE" would be nice, but as I looked at GTK+ it seemed alot of work. So, I'm wondering if anyone here in dillo-land has any interest in attacking a port to CE, perhaps through one of these lighter-weight GUI libraries?

[Dillo-dev]HTTPS Cleanup
by Garrett Kajmowicz July 24, 2004

July 24, 2004

I have gone through and modified the https.c file to use (what I believe are) your preferred coding standards, with one exception. I *cannot* stand unbraced if statements (or any other statements), and thus I braced them in two locations. I also don't care for use of the tertiary operator, but you wrote the function it is used in, so I don't plan on touching it. I would also like your opinion on how to "clean up" the function save_certificate_home() It has three exit points, and dropping it to fewer would be somewhat of a challenge to do cleanly. There are a few loctions where I believe you broke a statement which would ift on one line, specifically snprintf statements. I might have dont this (though I can't think of why). If this is the case, could you let me know your reasoning behind this? I'd like to learn from this if possible... - Garrett Kajmowicz

I would disagree with that point. With single exit point functions, you have to carry a variable (extra stack allocation) through the application and all code. Thus you can either have large numbers of nested statements (which is very effective and reasonably clean, but excedes line length) or you have your finalized variable being carried through the rest of the application with nothing else to do. With the multi-exit point strategy, you can exit the application as soon as you are done done whatever it is that you need to do. This way you aren't hanging around in the code any more. I have found that tends to make for better code than single-exit writing. > > Another big problem comes with finalization code (freeing > memory, leaving variables in a stable state, return codes, side > effects...). > > Take for instance yes_ssl_support().

Since this is the preffered coding standard (I suggest adding it to the coding standards on the web) I will follow it as you wish. I will follow any coding standards to the letter, and will take suggestions as I see fit. I will modify everything that I have writen to conform to your preferences, and resubmit.

[Dillo-dev]HTTPS certificate support
by Garrett Kajmowicz July 22, 2004

July 22, 2004

OK - this patch backs out a few trivial changes which were made about 2 patches ago due to code redundancy and are no longer needed. This patch detects self-signed certificates and gives the user the option to permanently trust them, autosaving to the .dillo/certs directory. Please give this a whirl, and then commit it. Let me know when done so I can while my current devel tree clean and get a new copy - this way I don't have to manually correct all of the spelling errors with each patch :-) - Garrett

I pondered a long time whether to make a generic function for parsing dpip dialog answers. Something like: a_Dpiutil_dialog_parse_answer(...) To me it seems that according to the simplicity principle of API design, sticking with Get_attr_value() instead of one custom parsing function per each dpip command is better... The same logic applies to the a_Dpip_build_command() I was thinking of. The interface for sending data may survive though. Anyway, the most important point of this patch is that after applying the patch, it seems not to trust even paypal! For instance: https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/icon/secure_lock_2.gif gives me the warning dialog. Is this OK? Cheers Jorge.- PS: For those using CVS, you can avoid the dialogs by setting 'retval = 0' in https.c.

[Dillo-dev]form fields too narrow
by Thorben Thuermer July 21, 2004

July 21, 2004

Hello, it seems that dillo renders all text input fields in forms one character too narrow, for example on: http://www.efa.de/gvh/XSLT_TRIP_REQUEST2?language=en we have: <INPUT NAME="itdTimeHour" VALUE="17" SIZE="2" MAXLENGTH="2" ...> (field for the hour of the time) which clearly requests to be two charcters, but ends up having space for only one, making it hard to use (horizontal scrolling). in the source (html.c) i found: if ((attrbuf = Html_get_attr(html, tag, tagsize, "size"))) gtk_widget_set_usize(widget, strtol(attrbuf, NULL, 10) * gdk_char_width(widget->style->font, '0'), 0); which makes the fields too narrow... changing it to (1+strtol(attrbuf, NULL, 10)) fixes the problem. i can only assume that 'gtk_widget_set_usize' sets the *outside* dimensions of the widget? (or that something else is off there...) - Thorben

Example code can be find in the hello dpi (and also in nav.c). For instance, after upgrading the dpi binaries, launch Dillo and load this url "dpi:/hello/world". It will pop up a dialog, make a choice and look at the answer. repeat the test by going Back and Forward (the hello dpi is set to always reload). The relevant code is well commented. Look inside the hello dpi and you can also review the new dpiapi.[ch] files. Nav.c has an example of use for a_Interface_question_dialog() too. This should be enough for asking the user about certificates that can't be authenticated. Note that the code is not final, i.e. it needs some polishing and extensions. The good news is that in clearly illustrates the process and now is much easier to do it so. even the data structures and interface was thought to be extensible. Cheers Jorge.- Brian: unless you're interested in dpi development, or want to alpha test the https dpi, I'd recommend 0.8.2 as an upgrade.

[Dillo-dev]https patch
by Garrett Kajmowicz July 19, 2004

July 19, 2004

This patch allows the https dpi to release the memory used by the X509 certificate. This is a trivial patch. The call used to check the certificate increases a reference count, but it is never decreased, causing the memory not to be freed at the optimum time. This is not actually needed on a Linux system because of the MMU, but in the event this is converted to a server or run on a MMU-less processor, this could cause problems - I'm not familiar enough with the internals of OpenSSL to be certain. Anyways, please apply the following patch to CVS. btw, my configuration script diff seems not to have been applied yet. Are there any standards that I should be complying with that I am not? Thanks. More stuff to follow tonight. - Garrett

[Dillo-dev]Configure script patch
by Garrett Kajmowicz July 16, 2004

July 16, 2004

This patch updates the configuration system to chack for OpenSSL libraries, and compile appropriately. I have tested to make sure that the system work with both ssl enabled and disabled, though I do not know how well it will react to not have OpenSSL present at all. Along wwith those changes go changes to the https.c file to take advantage of this newly available information. In the event that it is compiled without ssl support, an error page will come back indicating that the dpi was compiled without ssl support, and link to the openssl website. btw, is there any easy command which will delete all of the non CVS files? make distclean seems to keep the configure script around, along with other cache information. - Garrett Kajmowicz

[Dillo-dev]dpip dialog for https (and dpis in general)
by Jorge Arellano Cid July 16, 2004

July 16, 2004

Hi there, In the afternoon I had a prototype working, wich BTW was very pleasing to see working, after living a long time as an abstract design. It needed some touches, and while working on them, some hidden bugs outside its scope showed in nav.c's repost dialog. Short story, I decided to integrate some code in interface.c with the new dialog renderer, use a more flexible design and fix the bugs. I'll test and upload tomorrow. Cheers Jorge.-

[Dillo-dev]Re: HTTPS
by Jorge Arellano Cid July 14, 2004

July 14, 2004

Hi Garret, I just finished uploading my patches to the dpis (those that were independent from your code but that required a merge) and the tarball tree you sent me. It comes with some minor modifications ... > Let me know what you think of the coding style, etc. Very clean and compliant with our Naming&Coding in general. I did minor changes, like keeping it inside 80 columns and switching "if(" to "if (" (not a requirement but just to be consistent with the rest of Dillo). Only in one function I needed to reindent to 3 spaces... Unto less trivial stuff, Makefile.am was modified so dpiutil.h gets in the tarball produced with `make dist`. It would be great if you can add some SSL library detection routine to configure.in so https.c uses the no_ssl_support() function when the libarry is not present (or detected). > Also, if you could give me some direction on how to implement the prompt for > unverified certificates (and the code/location to save them to), it would be > greatly appreciated. I'm working on this. Maybe tomorrow... For those that feel curious, you can get the latest CVS and test the new dpis. Just remember to install them after typing make! :-) More seriously, kill dpid and any running dpi before: 'make install' (or 'make install-strip'). Best Jorge.- PS: great start for 0.8.3-pre!

[Dillo-dev]Plugin infrastructure
by Garrett Kajmowicz July 14, 2004

July 14, 2004

Something with the DPI instrastructure needs to be considered - what to do if a plugin needs to prompt the user for some information. The need for this first came about while developping the https plugin - there needs to be a way to prompt the user in the event that the foreign system isn't trusted. This can currently be done through the use of direct calls to Gtk (I assume), but this is not the best result. It requires that everybody who needs to do user prompting write their own dialogs. It creates additional dependancies for the dpis. And it makes code upgrades more difficult - Should Dillo switch to another toolkit in the future for whatever reason (perhaps Gtk2?), all of the DPIs need to be rewritten. And in the event of multiple instances of Dillo running, it becomes impossible to determine which instance the prompt is for. My proposed solution to this problem is to create a new dpi command which is used to prompt the user for what to do. It should allow (require/default?) modal dialog boxes so that the prompt is associated with the Dillo instance the plugin is using. I am suggesting that the dpi command be 'prompt_user'. There would be one manditory field, 'type' which would indicate the type of prompt to use. Example values might be 'dialog' or 'file_save'. These types would be extensible. From there, additional tags would be allocated based on the type of prompt. For example, a 'file_save' prompt might have a default_filename tag. A 'dialog' would likely have a title, a message, and up to 3 button texts. In all cases, the responce should be a dpi message of type 'user_response' with a 'response' tag holding the value of the user input. At least this is my proposal. I'd like some feedback on it, and especially suggestions or better ideas. - Garrett Kajmowicz

This would allow us to update the status of current > downloads; shown in a dedicated window, somewhat ala Firefox, but again, > entierely in html. That is very interesting, but causes two problems. First of all, from what I have seen , it looks like it would be difficult to implement modal dialog boxes. This is important for security warnings so that they are not hidden or confused with other Dillo warnings. Secondly, this approach causes some problems. I am approaching this from the perspective of the https filter dpi, but I assume that the same problem would apply to any other related dpi. Firstly, a filter dpi runs in its own process for each call, not as a server. Thus every time a call is made to the https filter dpi, it runs in its entirety. This makes it difficult to handle a response from the user because the dpi is then required to write a web server capable of at the very least parsing http GET requests, which means opening up a socket and so forth. Needless to say, handling that is somewhat of a challenge from a filter dpi perspective. Secondly, for the https application, cookie/post/get datais likely to be sent, which means that any rerequest would have to be able to pass that data on exactly. Third, the https verification needs to be done after the ssl session is estabilshed, but before the http request is made (for security reasons). Thus any complicated scheme could result in multiple connections being made. Fourthly, I don't like it. That's the most important one of all :-) The html prompt window isn't a bad idea, but causes a lot of coding headaches on the dpi other end. But that's just my thought. If you think that an html prompt window would work, I'd appreciate a modified "hello" filter dpi as an example from which I could implement the required code. Thanks for the feedback - Garrett Kajmowicz -------------------------------------------------------

RE: [Dillo-dev]Plugin infrastructure
by Eric Gaudet July 12, 2004

July 12, 2004

Dillo's html rendering capabilities are what we should use for advanced forms. We don't want to duplicate the form widgets into a native-gtk version like mozilla does with xul. The pageflow, the forms, images etc ought to be in html, even if it's a dpi serving them. Having a login/password modal box seems to be what people are used to, so I can see why we'd like to have that. I can imagine dpis other than https needing a login/password box, but I'm not sure I can imagine that for non-login purposes. In any case, anything more complicated than one string, one or two text boxes with lables (possibly hidden for passwords) and 1 or 2 buttons certainly belongs to a dedicated html page the dpi would build. I could live with an intermediate html login page for https or any other dpi myself.

[Dillo-dev]HTTPS
by Garrett Kajmowicz July 12, 2004

July 12, 2004

OK - I have created a preliminary HTTPS implementation using openssl. It checks to see if a site certificate chain is valid. Unfortunately, I'm not sure how to create a dialog to prompt the user, so the "ask the user" function just returns continue. Should I use glib/gtk or some dpi communication message? The totality of the dpi stuff I have done is about 15k or so. Please let me know if you are interested and I will email it to you post haste. - Garrett Kajmowicz

[Dillo-dev]Download with external utility?
by Todd Slater July 1, 2004

July 1, 2004

In one of the 0.7 releases I had a patch that allowed me to right-click a link and choose to download with an external utility as specified in ~/.dillo/dillorc. It seems that the last time I tried it on a newer (0.8) release it did not "take" the patch. I can, however, still use the open in external browser option, which was part of the same patch. Should I still be able to apply the download patch to the newest versions rather easily, and if so how? Thanks, Todd -- Name that tune #10: Now a very great man once said that some people will rob you with a fountain pen; it didn't take too long to find out just what he was talking about.

[Dillo-dev]dillo-0.8.2-rc2.tar.bz2 (rc2)
by Jorge Arellano Cid July 1, 2004

July 1, 2004

Hi guys, The first release candidate got only one problem report (on headers), but I couldn't help adding a couple of tiny enhancements. So this is it: + * Set some initial socket-buffering for dpis (in dpid). + * Made the rendered area keep its focus after a form submition. + * Fixed some include files in src/IO/. The socket-buffering helps with 2.6.x kernels (probably a bug in the kernel: the "first" data transfer in the sockets usually is slow, from then and on, it goes as fast as with 2.4.x, but if you don't use the socket for a long time it gives you another slow start). The second fix is just a UI improvement. The third is a cleanup. Please test it from: http://www.dillo.org/download/dillo-0.8.2-rc2.tar.bz2 Cheers Jorge.-
