BTW, just committed a patch for an elusive bug. Now it's possible to browse (& populate DNS cache), disconnect, click a link, have the abort operation on no network condition, reconnect and click it again (and it will work!).
The only bit missing is how to make the link return to its normal color. a_Nav_repush() can do it easily but looks like an overkill. Maybe Johannes has a good idea on this?
Not sure why it should change it's color. It's still a visited link after all.
AFAIS: clicked, not visited! (it was clicked and aborted before the data stream came in).
Or does the link color have another semantics (like page is in cache) in dillo?
Currently, it means exactly that: "page is in cache". That's why our FAQ links appear in visited color: http://www.dillo.org/FAQ.html
If there's a good reason to change it, it should be simple. I see little difference for broadband users; dialup users may like the hint of what's available without connection. No strong feelings on this.
If we really care, I guess there's always alink/active:
I think the point is: do we follow Firefox and present links in "visited" color only once the user's been there? Is there any advantage of one scheme over the other? Is expected behaviour (FF) more relevant? If users would like to keep dillo's behaviour. Is it worth a preference? (dialup or for any other reason) -- Cheers Jorge.-
