Here 2 remaining bugs I've found : - some hardcoded accented characters (for exemple use "é" in the place of "é" in HTML code) aren't properly displayed.
i think that its the dev team stand point to not support bad html, as this breaks even more the standard and makes the browsers bigger without reason...
What's bad about that code? HTML 4 is, in the absence of headers or meta tags indicating otherwise, assumed to be ISO-8859-1. The é is perfectly legal there.
If you give Dillo an ISO-8859-1 'é', it will work fine. Now, if you give it in some other encoding, it will fail.
Given that they show up correctly when I look at that site here, I suspect it's a font problem on the display, not an HTML or Dillo problem.
Yes, it could be. BTW, if the source page has an ISO-8859-1 'é' this is surely the problem.
As for the default background: that's up to the browser, not the spec. A basic web design rule going back to 1996 is: never assume what the default colors are going to be -- if you want something specific, set it in your code. Unfortunately, Dillo doesn't support CSS yet, which means you have to resort to setting these in the <body> tag.
The background color can be defined in dillorc (either the global one, or on a per user basis). HTH. -- Cheers Jorge.-
