Re: OWB - The first (un)complete modern Web Browser
Maaaaaan your the king :) Checking sites that looked ugly or not usable on amigabrowsers looks just nice with OWB :)
keep up the good work and merry christmas EDIT: It asks for cygnix ? Does it really need it. I just assigned it to progdir and it worked. |

Re: OWB - The first (un)complete modern Web Browser
I don't understand... this seems to be a "made from scratch" effort? Do I have it right? And it's native PPC??
Now I KNOW AOS4.0 IS a success..... Amiga$="Determination!" You guys are SAINTS!!!! (Hey, IBrowse, AWeb, and Voyager guys too!) AMIGA! AOS4.x! |

I'd love to betatest this baby as i think this needs support. Is there a bugtracker (like on sourceforge) somewhere where i could sign up? I wanna see OBW mature... |

Re: OWB - The first (un)complete modern Web Browser
Well done!
You'll need to do something about the speed, but as a proof of concept this is better than excellent! I actually managed to browse quite a few sites and things like JS Menus worked! Very impressive. Good luck for this project, I've got my fingers crossed. |

Re: OWB - The first (un)complete modern Web Browser
Great work Andrea - finally a browser with all the bells and whistles on OS4! I followed the instructions I found from AW.net and managed to 'integrate' the OWB with IBrowse - now I can launch those pages which use CSS from IB and it works very well!
Most of the sites seem to work with OWB, but for some reason Wikipedia seems to be a no-go - its starts to load but sorta hangs. Anyone had success with for example en.wikipedia.org ? |

Thanks a lot. Took a while to figure that leaving the mouse inside the gadget prevented displaying the changing options while using the arrow keys. Another question: did anyone manage to use secure connections? Is it implemented in this version? 10x, Jack |

Re: OWB - The first (un)complete modern Web Browser
@Raziel
Silly me. The "notes" refers to copying a file into s:, I used "cp" and it didn't copy it (snoopy said it's missing). Now all's well, 10x a lot @all Another question: what effect "--depth" has? My WB duisplay is 16bit, owb defaults to 32. Is there any env var to override it? Jack |

Re: OWB - The first (un)complete modern Web Browser
Also you need cygnix installed or you get requests to assign cygnix everytime you go to a url.
but I did re-install cygnix just to get rid of the requestor. Found owb was a bit speedier after that. Keep up the good work. Hope the cygnix dependancy goes away in future versions. renoir |

Re: OWB - The first (un)complete modern Web Browser

Did anyone had any luck with wikipedia? Here this one hogs the cpu: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viscosity main page crashes... edit: Tested bidi functionality: works great! Now I can read Hebrew always rendered with correct directionality I was using AWeb before, where with the aid of the author of charset.plugin I managed to filter all common Hebrew variants into displayable text but without bidi functionality, meant I was reading reversed text in most cases And here's a minor glich in debug output (bold text): Quote:

I wonder if anyone tried it on a Amiga 1200. Does it run at a usable speed or is it too slow? |

Lets hope that the A1200 has a gfx card and a fast CPU on board. Else, I shudder to imagine.

It's quite slow on my 175MHz A1200 but don't forget it's still in very early stage of development. Maybe in some next version there 'll be some speed improvement... |
