Encouraged by the idea that I am going in the right direction, I have made a new one with spaceStyle:
Funny how we were working on the same patch a the same time!
I had an ancient version, and gave it a review. The link search is linear inside textblock. A linux gazette page showed more than 33000 words to color a link. On bigger pages it may be worst. It depends on the structure. For instance our bookmarks uses tables and the link is usually found in less than 10 words.
The patch in CVS reduce the 35000 steps to 1500 or so (the sorted link list is sparse, so there's a penalty for looking for an actual link to compare to).
Please apply the spaceStyle part, and send it to me.
Do we know that all of the (TEXT -- putting WIDGET aside for the moment) contents of a link will have the same style? First likely example I could come up with is how about in a utopian future dillo where tooltips are implemented and there's an ABBR inside?
Oh right. Just think about: <html> <body> <a href="http://slashdot.org">slash<b>dot</b></a> </body> </html> After clicking, the dot is no longer bold. Cheers, Johannes
