javascript

Hello everybody I completely happy with dillo just the way it is. I consider it insane to go on the web with javascript enabled and apart from gmail I don't normally have cookies enabled. (how can I differentiate the two users? i.e I have dillo of user 1 on the the screen and a dillo of user 2 also on the screen but the 2 dillo's are identical in appearance). Anyway all of a sudden after using dillo for a year or so I find there is a website that I absolutely must get on but it requires javascript. Well okay I search the web to try to find something, anything that has javascript (I've been searching for day and night for about a week now) and find that there are two things 1) Massive huge bloatware 2) dillo Most things don't build, or don't have any kind of a build system or are for x86 (I'm on arm) so I figure I have to bite the bullet and build firefox. I've been rolling my own system for about 20 years so so I know whats involved but after two config failures and it failing on the gigantic final link after an 8 hour build, I come to the conclusion that lifes not worth it. I don't want that piece of junk on my computer anyway. Links2 at one time had javascript but they abandoned it and elinks has javascript as long as you have seamonkey installed (tarball>190Mbytes) Anybody got any ideas? I did find one thing. "duktape" (http://duktape.org/)which seems to be an exceptionlly fine piece of code which is an embeddable Ecmascript E5/E5.1 engine with a focus on portability and compact footprint. All the examples compiled out of the box and linking it to dillo (duktape.c duktape.h) took a few minutes to change the makefile. The size's of the files are dillo 558,480 dillo 767,456 with ducttape I don't know enough to be able to do anything with it (I work with hardware) but thought someone might be interested as a route to get javascript on dillo.

Weirdly scaled images (again)
by fusionfile＠gmail.com Aug. 17, 2015

Aug. 17, 2015

The Dillo user v4hn recently sent a message to this list regarding incorrect image scaling. She or he expresses exactly what I have on my mind: http://lists.dillo.org/pipermail/dillo-dev/2015-July/010596.html I use Dillo 3.0.4 from the Debian stable repositories and I experience the ugly image scaling on many sites, for instance on the two largest news (paper) sites here in Sweden: http://www.dn.se http://www.svd.se I can imagine that most people trying out Dillo will find the stretched-out images very off-putting. Changing the aspect ratio of an image is something you almost never want do do, and changing the aspect ratio of a photo is a big no-no. What's your view on this? Do you use Dillo with CSS disabled? Actually, I think it would be better if image scaling was not implemented at all, rather than broken like this. I'm not familiar with the Dillo code base but I'm a programmer proficient with C and I know some C++, so if I (with some hints) can help I would be more than glad to. Regards, August

weirdly scaled images
by me＠v4hn.de Aug. 16, 2015

Aug. 16, 2015

Hey everyone, thanks for the great project. :-) It is awesome to have a graphical browser at ones hand that starts up in less than a second and still supports most of the stuff I need. Now, for quite some time I've been using dillo to read news on http://www.heise.de and it has always annoyed me that some of the images on the main page are weirdly scaled. Because these images are of size 160x90 but are scaled to what feels like 98% of the window's width, they are barely recognizable and distracting. Now with the new release out which still shows this behaviour, I thought I'd ask whether someone's got an idea what the problem might be in this case. Because I'm not at all familiar with the dillo source code and/or the resp. web standards I didn't dare to debug this myself up to now. Would be absolutely awesome if someone could have a look at it, v4hn

different profiles for different sites
by dillo-dev＠toykeeper.net July 30, 2015

July 30, 2015

Hi, I just wanted to share a simple idea I've found useful. Basically, I have two hotkeys to run dillo with different profiles using a trivial wrapper script: #!/bin/sh FLAVOR=$1 ; shift cd $HOME/.dillo cp dillorc.$FLAVOR dillorc dillo "$@" This way, I can have different user-agents per profile, to allow me to get different behaviors. If I want to use google images or get search results on the first page, I ask Dillo to pretend it's Lynx: http_user_agent="Lynx/2.8.8dev.3 libwww-FM/2.14 SSL-MM/1.4.1" Or if I want to do google searches like "5 meters in feet" or "local weather" or "pizza near me", I ask Dillo to pretend it's an old version of Firefox: http_user_agent="Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.1.6) Gecko/20091201 Firefox/3.5.6" Many sites are picky about the user-agent and won't work right with my usual config, but this way I can get them all to function as desired. :) -- Selene

no text wrapping on Gentoo Bugzilla
by miroslav.rovis1＠zg.ht.hr July 18, 2015

July 18, 2015

It just happened, minutes ago. Easily seen in its effects: toggle header weeding in Mutt doesn't work https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=555180 (notice that also emerg --info that I attached has, instead of spaces, the Α displayed, such as: https://555180.bugs.gentoo.org/attachment.cgi?id=406994 2.6-r1::gentoosys-devel/autoconf: ... ) However, as I immediately after posted on: Mutt without Portage/in Local Overlay https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-1002146-start-50.html#7781834 where the exactly same text can be perfectly readable as it is wrapped just fine, and which I explain in the immediately following post in the same topic: https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-1002146-start-50.html#7781838 Could that Dillo's fault? The whole session of what happened online from my going online, to logging into Bugzilla, the entire posting, end the surprising look at what the post came out like, all is in these: 6d8bc1e8d0868d6864d4beb8678e13a533e813cc6f2a26ff1a14cb7cced1aec5 dump_150717_1211_g0n.pcap dc465d190560a5b7a058a2d1f996d43ef68e032fb66e4be1b265a5bfdab95630 Screen_150717_1211_g0n.mkv (the traffic dump and the screencast) just in case we would need to analyze what happened. The Dillo is the same one, like I built it back when I wrote my: A Tentative at dillo-3.1-dev ebuild https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-1021878.html (haven't updated it since) Regards! -- Miroslav Rovis Zagreb, Croatia http://www.CroatiaFidelis.hr

Dillo 3.0.5 released
by eocene＠gmx.com July 14, 2015

July 14, 2015

All right, release is official... Thanks everyone! PS Here are the changes that found their way into ChangeLog: Image buffer/cache improvements. Fix for segfault when there's no dpid and view source is requested. Fix view-source dpi to handle null characters correctly. Made view-source dpi use CSS formatting (it's shorter and cleaner). Crosscompile/buildroot-friendly fltk-config test. Fix X11 icon name. In location bar, tend toward showing beginning of URL instead of end. Handle irix's version of vsnprintf(). INPUT, TEXTAREA placeholder attribute. Better notification when user's domainrc settings block page redirection. Fix bug with font_factor preference and CSS font-size:(larger|smaller). Recognize Menu key in keysrc. HTTPS: change cipher list to "ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL:!LOW:!EXPORT40:!RC4", disable SSL3, disable TLS compression. Avoid requesting background images if an ancestor has display:none. Ignore built-in search url if any are specified in dillorc.

The FAQ example on png/redirection not anymore accurate
by miroslav.rovis1＠zg.ht.hr July 7, 2015

July 7, 2015

Correct me if I'm wrong, but what I write is in my best understanding and with the intention to help my most used browser get even better. The FAQ entry: "Why doesn't Dillo display certain images?" at: http://www.dillo.org/FAQ.html#q28 doesn't show any of: ... ... 'blog.reuters.com' to 'ad.doubleclick.net' ... as the text currently reads, which probably means they have read our FAQ and decided to change those redirections. This is what I actually get when I uncomment the line which is commented the way the built-in default settings are, as it says in the top of ~/.dillo/dillorc to read: show_msg=YES (but it shows the same even if I leave if commented out; it's the default, I retried with it commented out: same) $ Domain: Default accept. dillo_dns_init: Here we go! (threaded) Enabling cookies as from cookiesrc... ** WARNING **: preferred sans-serif font "DejaVu Sans" not found. ** WARNING **: preferred serif font "DejaVu Serif" not found. ** WARNING **: preferred monospace font "DejaVu Sans Mono" not found. ** WARNING **: preferred cursive font "URW Chancery L" not found. ** WARNING **: preferred fantasy font "DejaVu Sans" not found. Nav_open_url: new url='about:splash' Nav_open_url: new url='http://en.wikipedia.org' Dns_server [0]: en.wikipedia.org is 91.198.174.192 2620:0:862:ed1a::1 Connecting to 91.198.174.192 Nav_open_url: new url='https://en.wikipedia.org/' Nav_open_url: new url='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page' NumPendingStyleSheets=1 NumPendingStyleSheets=2 Png_error_handling: iCCP: known incorrect sRGB profile So probably the example should be changed to reflect this changed reality, so users would not get confused as they will probably see none of those 'reuters' lines in the messages on their terminal. Maybe it would be sufficient to just rewrite that item of the FAQ to mean that previously they would have seen those messages... Don't know. Again, correct me if I'm wrong. On another note, I got the new 3.0.5, as it is available in gentoo, but I have the same fonts not found issue which I had previously described (and it's there in yesterday's real output form my system, further above; it was yesterday, the delay being for unrelated reasons), and about which (the fonts not found issue) I will next send another message, with different, appropriate subject, to this list, I hope.

what is done with the dillo project donation money?

I've wondered what is done with the dillo project donation money. Does it go toward Andreas's hosting costs or something?
