I would *REALLY* like to be able to log into my Linksys router. I get "401 Unauthorized" instead of a login request window.
I've checked what's required for that, but it seems it would need additional code in at least 4 different parts of OWB to support it
An easy way may be adding it to libcurl instead, but I don't know if it caches usernames and passwords, it could be that you'd get the requester for each request, i.e. if there are 20 images on the page 21 requesters and you'd have to enter the username and password 21 times which would be unusable as well and much worse than having to enter the full URL with username and password, something like http://username:password@192.168.1.1/ , which works already.
OWB 2.9+ doesn't need AmigaOS 4.1, 4.0 is enough, but it needs a current version of Cairo. The one from 2005 on os4depot.net is too old and unless someone else builds a current version for AmigaOS 4.0 the only one usable for OWB is the one included in AmigaOS 4.1, I don't have the time to port libraries OWB needs myself.
OWB 2.11 runs AMAZING on my Sam, the scrolling is nearly as good as IBrowse now. It's very smooth most of the time, AND this on my Sam without L2 cache. On an A1 it'd be even better. Also stability is way up since the last time I played with it. WELL DONE Joerg, I just wish I had some money to send you. You really deserve it. This is the best port Amiga has seen in a long time!
All you need to do now is add "fake tabs".. a row of buttons for each window to change between windows, similar to how Golded and CubicIDE do it!
@jahc I agree with your whole post. This is the fastest and smothest version yet. I can't wait for some of the bells and whistles to be added. Brilliant work Joerg and thankyou.
Where are the colourful pointers? They don't appear anymore, and I have a Radeon... Guys or you have a very slow version of IBrowse or I have a very good version of it...IBrowse it's always faster...and even Netsurf...
Why fallback/8 at the bottom? Reaction is not able to calculate a good tiny font which respect user settings? Or it's a custon Intuition/GadTools gadget?
From the read me in the Archive on OS4Depot Quote:
History: 2.11 (12.10.2008) - Split status/tooltip and progress bars, moved them to the bottom and using the Prefs/GUI Gadgets/Small font (RAfallback/8 if not set) for them (bugs.os4depot.net issue #12). Because of these changes in the gui the WIDTH and HEIGH tooltypes for setting the size of the webview aren't supported any more. - Added tooltip support and enabled showing URLs in tooltips. - Toolbar images weren't disposed, fixed. - Added CONFIRMQUIT tooltype, if enabled a requester is displayed asking if you really want to quit OWB when closing the last window with the close gadget (issue #15). - Creates single colour pointers from the true colour ones, they are only used when not running on a Radeon gfx card and SOFTSPRITE isn't enabled on other gfx cards. - Updated to SVN revision 580 (gif anims, setting the mouse pointer and drawing the inner frame scroll bars currently don't work).
