css progress

by Johannes.Hofmann＠gmx.de

Hi, I just pushed my latest changes to the css prototype repository. The css parser from dillo-0.8.0-css-3 is now integrated and working. The user agent style is parsed from a char buffer (see CssContext::buildUserAgentStyle() in css.cc). Of course the code is still full of bugs and missing stuff, but it shows that things basically work as expected. This is starting to be fun! Cheers, Johannes

Here are 2 png pictures when I visit http://ja.wikipedia.org This is from original dillo2.0. http://furaisanjin.blog.so-net.ne.jp/_images/blog/_9f7/furaisanjin/1-02b9e.… Red surrounded part has a long line without line break and it doesn't fit on page width. This is from modified dillo2.0. http://furaisanjin.blog.so-net.ne.jp/_images/blog/_9f7/furaisanjin/2.png Blue surrounded part is table and rows are really narrow. Regards, furaisanjin

It looks like Japanese is that > way as well. Yes, dillo doesn't handle Japanese either when a line is long and doesn't have break on it. I modified html_process_word so that each Japanese word is added by addText. In this way appearance is better but sometimes table looks bad. Regards, furaisanjin

dillo people: It turns out that dillo handles Chinese quite badly because the text doesn't contain whitespace (BUG 827). It looks like Japanese is that way as well. 1) People using East Asian languages: Does this do roughly the right thing? I've read that there are picky rules about certain individual characters, but I just mean in general here. 2) Thoughts on optimization are welcomed. littlebat: For some reason, I was thinking that whitespace was required between words in dillo, but I misremembered. littlebat wrote: > Hi, > Thanks for the work on Dillo. > > I think it isn't a good idea to resolve long chinese line wrapping > problem by inserting space after punctuation mark("?" or "?" or "?", > etc..). > > Here is a "Dillo2 Wrap Long Chinese Line Test" page: > http://www.learndiary.com/en/dillo2-wrap-long-chinese-line-test.htm . > Open it with Firefox or IE, then open it with Dillo2, You will see the > different of wrapping long chinese line between them. > > Note, unlike english, there is no space between Chinese characters.

I ended installing alpine here to check this issue. The URL viewer is taken from .mailcap. When set properly, it works (at least here it works with Ubuntu 8.04.1, so it's not an alpine issue). If you have something like this in your mailcap: (all in one line) text/html; /usr/local/bin/dillo -l -f '%s'; description=HTML Text; \ test=test -n "$DISPLAY"; nametemplate=%s.html it works with dillo1. Something like: text/html; /usr/local/bin/dillo -l -f -x XID '%s'; description=HTML Text; \ test=test -n "$DISPLAY"; nametemplate=%s.html makes dillo1 exit, so it doesn't work. Reason: XID should be a number containing a window ID, where dillo should embed itself, not a literal string! Note: dillo2 will work with the flawed parameter because as it can't embed itself yet, the parameter is blithely ignored! :-) HTH. -- Cheers Jorge.-

the Http_must_use_proxy change in CVS

I was working on an old patch and made the mistake. David: the problem was that the no_proxy preference had whitespace around the equal sign in dillorc. The current CVS extends the parser to accept this syntax. Please test and send feedback. The other patch "worked" by chance ;). -- Cheers Jorge.-

Code for handling those extra prefs is OK. Lots of code to recalculate widget sizes to acomodate larger fonts in the UI is not the goal.

Is something missing? It gives me a warning because we're sending it a char* now.

I guess I'll go back and make a little thing for the button state to live in as well.
