Hi there, I just wish to introduce you to Mr. Per Andersson, a senior developer with TCL/GTK/GCC/GDB backgrounds that's willing to help the project. @Per: if you want to introduce yourself to the list, here's a perfect spot. We've had some emails and he'll start working on debugging some problematic pages (I already sent him a though case), please try to answer any doubts or requests he may have during this period. TIA. -- Cheers Jorge.-

Solid rectangular placeholder for non-supported images
by jerome.borme＠gmail.com 26 Feb '16

26 Feb '16

Hello, I read a news flux where each news item comes with a small image. Dillo does not like the markup and replaces the image with a rectangular placeholder with a solid colour fill. This happens even when images loading is disabled (while other regular images are simply not displayed, but not replaced by a filled rectangle), and the colour fill seems to be randomly chosen at Dillo startup. I think this behaviour was not intentional. Right now the workaround is to not compile gif support. The placeholder is then replaced by the alt text, which I prefer to some brightly coloured rectangle. Version: Dillo 3.0.5 Page: http://www.lemonde.fr/actualite-en-continu/ Snippet: <img width="147" height="97" data-item-type="article" data-src="http://s2.lemde.fr/image/2016/02/26/147x97/4872606_7_843b_les-ministres-des…" src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==" data-lazyload="true" alt="Les ministres..." title="..." onload="lmd.pic(this);" onerror="lmd.pic(this);" class="lazy-retina"> Thanks, J?r?me

Problems with bookmarks.dpi

Work on floats
by sgeerken＠dillo.org 24 Jan '16

24 Jan '16

Hi! In the repository at <http://flpsed.org/hgweb/dillo_grows>, I've recently worked on a new approach for floats (run doxygen and read html/dw-size-request-pos.html if you are interested), which fixes many problems we have with the code at <http://hg.dillo.org/dillo>. The new version seems to work quite stable, at least much more stable than the version in the main repository. For this reason, I'd like to merge soon, and hopefully, we'll eventually have a release supporting floats. There are some more developments at <http://flpsed.org/hgweb/dillo_grows>, positioned elements and stacking contexts (needed for the former), but these have been deactivated; work will continue after floats are complete.

Dillo MS Windows Port
by rogerx.oss＠gmail.com 23 Jan '16

23 Jan '16

I spent some time last night examining the Dillo Windows port, as well as the DPLus version. The DPlus version has multiple patches for extra (likely not-needed?) features atop of the Windows port. So further limited my research to the Dillo Windows port to see what was only needed for Dillo to be functionally compiled on Windows platforms under Mingw. Performing a "diff -urN" on the Windows port against the vanilla Dillo-1.3.0, showed at the very end some stuff concerning socks.h/winsock2.h portability. There were other modifications, but not sure if those were really needed. Would appear they performed a lot of work, and it's sad to see the work just being ignored. Would be nice to see some basic portability for Windows integrated. However, basic and standardized work that is clean and can be integrated within the main Dillo tree. Would appear the DPlus version work went further with extra features, and can easily understand why they were likely not wanted within the main Dillo tree. -- Roger http://rogerx.freeshell.org/

Ctrl to open links in new tab or new window
by dennisn＠dennisn.mooo.com 12 Jan '16

12 Jan '16

Currently in dillorc there is "middle_click_opens_new_tab" which controls whether links that are middle clicked open in a new tab or a new window. How about allowing the ability to open it /the other way/ when that middle click is accompanied by, say, the CTRL button? (Instead of having to dig through the right-click menus to do this.) This can be trivially done by changing line 759 of html.cc (in dillo 3.0.5) to be something like: if (prefs.middle_click_opens_new_tab != (event->state == CONTROL_MASK))

Increase Menu Font
by rogerx.oss＠gmail.com 05 Jan '16

05 Jan '16

What hinders me from using Dillo more often, the menu font is quite relatively small compared to my monitor/display DPI or monitor/display size. I have a Dell U2713HM-IPS-LED Monitor, and usually find I have to increase the font size on most web pages. However, the menu GUI font should be relatively easy to increase, including when using DWM & DMenu here. However, increasing (or even decreasing) Dillo's menu font size may require editing system (ie. /usr) GTKRC/QTRC file settings? Should this not be something exported from FLTK, with a variable set within the dillorc file? Although there is a panel_size variable, the variable has always been set to large here within even my 19 inch monitors, and still proving to be still quite small compared to the size of the 19 inch monitors. -- Roger http://rogerx.freeshell.org/

Enabling Javascript
by berenger.morel＠neutralite.org 23 Nov '15

23 Nov '15

Hello. First, sorry if this mailing list is not the good place to ask this, but it is the only way to contact dillo users that I have seen on the website (no IRC chan, forum, user mailing-list or.... only this dev ml). I am discovering dillo (at least a browser which does not eat all memory and take ages to start! Thanks for that guys.) and I have noticed that there might be a partial implementation of JS support ( it is yellow in http://www.dillo.org/Plans.html and there are bits of info there http://lists.dillo.org/pipermail/dillo-dev/2009-May/006434.html ). So, is this stuff in the current source tree, and if yes, how to enable it (compiling dillo won't be a problem if it is needed)? Thanks.

Chinese and french characters in web pages
by cjarry＠cjarry.org 18 Oct '15

18 Oct '15

Dear Dillo developers, First of all, I want to thank you for the great web browser dillo is: it is very fast, has most of the features I want and the rendering is improving greatly (I am using hg version currently). I would like to use dillo to view web pages written in chinese and also pages written in french. Currently, I cannot do both. To view web pages in chinese, I set the following fonts in my .dillo/dillorc: font_serif="WenQuanYi Bitmap Song" font_sans_serif="WenQuanYi Bitmap Song" The problem is that french characters like ?, ? or ? are not displayed with this font. To view web pages in french, I set the following fonts: font_serif="DejaVu Serif" font_sans_serif="DejaVu Sans" But then, chinese characters are displayed as empty squares. Is there a way to read both languages in the same instance of dillo? Thanks, Christophe

Downloading user agent
by andreas＠kemnade.info 24 Sep '15

24 Sep '15

Hi, I am thinking about the User-Agent which is sent during downloads. Some sites block wget, probably because they do not want to learn robots.txt and do not like a tool doing massdownloads. So if you use dillo to download from such sites, you get a 403 forbidden. If wget would use dillo as user-agent (can be set via a parameter) in such cases, there would be no problem and it is not really wrong. Regards, Andreas
