I was looking at the radio/checkboxes the other night - they're too big anyway so i'll see if i can get them more normal.

Maybe have them scale with the zoom level?

Btw, i bumped into something of a bug relating to dropdown lists.

If one tap a list, then tap outside of it to have it go away, then tap another list, the first list is shown again. One have to tap outside of the first list twice for the second list to correctly show.

Also, if the list is very long, it will get up to max screen size, but the content will start where the list is located on the page, not at the top of the list shown. End result is a list thats mostly empty until one use the scroll arrows.

Too big for finger or for stylus?

On S60, eBay with its many links and tons of items was difficult to use in S60Browser. So I tethered and fired up Tear. I couldn't get numbers (Fn keys) to work in Tear so when I was in store yesterday seeing what something costs on eBay instead of the store Tear was cumbersome to use. Speedwise, performance was good. Seemed better than MicroB according to my feelings.

Hi,

I'm new here. Someone pls tell me, how can i install tear 0.3. I have a N810 with default sw insttalled+updates. I tied it from web and said libidn11 is unable to install becouse incompatible application package.

Or this is working only with easy debian chroot ?

thx

"apt-get install libidn11" should do too.

I have tried it, but nothing happend. I think i have to add repo to apt-get first. I never used debian before. But extra repo source is added to hildon installer yet.

@bodri, i think i mentioned in this thread that i had problems installing that package as well. One way around it is to enable r&d or red pill mode and then install the package. Others have said this is unnecessary, but I could not get it to install any other way.

the "problem" is that app manger do not bother with fullfilling deps when installing from file. the high and mighty wants us to use extra and similar...

Just wanted to say I tried Tear last night, and it is great! I was surprised just how fast and capable it is.
Aside from not letting me log into the regular facebook page (fine on mobile) and not letting me log into wordpress. It handled everything else I tried last night, and faster than the default browser.

Great job!

Actually, there is a reason, when installing from files, you have no pool information, priority information, etc, so apt wouldn't know what and where should it install from. Also, it would be too easy to blow your system to kingdom come if you try to install an outdated package - this way you only fail to install the package, but not endanger package management.

That being said, on my Diablo N810, I had to manually do apt-get install libidn11 libxslt1.1, then install the libwebkit and tear packages provided in this thread. Did not need to enter red pill mode or any other magic except for the apt-get. I do have the extras repo enabled.

As a fresh tear user, my only beef is the (non)handling of bookmarks, but maybe I just didn't read through the forum carefully enough :)
