Why don't you login? :)

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

Since asking for an ETA on the next version would be lame, I'll try a (perhaps) more clever approach: Am I right to assume that the next version will contain a larger amount of changes than recent updates, in terms of both magnitude and number? :p

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

I registered for an account but I never got the confirmation email.

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

Probably, but I'm not sure you will see the magnitude and number on the surface :P

Anyway, it will be one of these days, just some small and annoying things to sort out.

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

There is no confirmation Email, but the accounts need to be validated and I couldn't find where it is switched off. You can probably login if you try.

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

Tear has encounted a strange scrolling behavior can't trace the problem anyone experience that ? scroll bars misplaced as in shot .

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

Re: Tear bug #28 , I think.

With my Hotmail account I get a similar (?) behaviour.
My adr. is ---@live.se

https://login.live.com
Enter adr. + password, login.
> page with my account details.

When I click on "mail" (at the top of the page), Tear never (?) connects.
The url adr. bar shows "http://co119w.col119w.mail.live.com/mail/ . . .(etc) " ,
where "(etc)" ends with a number (N) of long numbers separated by "&n=",
and N =~ the number of times the blue bar has gone left>right.

( I have Javascript and Plugins enabled.)


Tear IS my favourite browser, am looking forward to let it outdo Midori in Mer . . .

Hi Bundyo, sorry for late reply, easter you know ;)
Password field requires 4 characters on this www.op.fi page and as said, only 2 can be typed.

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

I installed this yesterday, with some trepidation given how early in the lifecycle it seems to be; what can I say? It's brilliant. Pages load much faster than in the default browser, and it correctly renders a number of pages that browser does not.

Memory usage seems a lot higher, and I've seen a few bugs, and the program has died a couple of times. Where is the best place to check if these are known problems, and what information is needed if they are not?

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

thanks a lot Bundyo! tear has brought back my love for my NIT! i love how it renders pages in a flash! i use it mainly to browse my ebooks; decompressed CHM books, loads of text and pics and tear handles them like my desktop!

one question though, since i often use it to browse offline, how can i prevent the wireless connection dialog box from popping up everytime i click a link?

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

I'll check on that. Can you file a bug at http://bugs.bundyo.org ?

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

It's impossible to log into eBay on Tear. I get a Save Dialog Box instead. (You can put anything in the User ID and Password text boxes to recreate the problem -- you don't have to enter a valid ID or Password.)

(This may be the already frequently mentioned "bookmarklet" problem. Reading about "bookmarklets," I wasn't sure if a log-in button was a bookmarklet. It's similar to problems I've encountered when trying to preview a Reply in "Advanced" when posting on this forum.)

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

This doesn't have anything to do with bookmarklets.

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

OK, so I filed it at Project Tear. I wasn't able to log in so I filed it as a guest. Maybe I forgot my username or password, but that's unlikely.

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

Logging in to Mobile eBay works nicely for me.

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

I get the same download dialog when trying to login at my bank https://www.sabadellatlantico.com (there, too, you can try with a fake username/password)

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

are you planning to post a new preview soon?

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

Does the login problem (with the download confirmation) happen on all https pages? All the times i've encountered it were https pages, wondering if that's the key.

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

No it happens on POST requests, I think all of them Ajax.

Yes, there will be a new version soon, but it won't be preview, since I better change the versioning and I have lots of versions before 1.0 :)

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

Can't wait to see which of my various requests got realized. :p

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

You can see them partially in the bug tracker :p

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

Ah, true. Hooray for issues #30 and #31 and having been fixed!

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

I'm going to chime in and also say that Tear has done a great job thus far of replacing most of the browsing chores on my IT. Granted, its got rough edges on the UX side:

- cannot figure out how to delete bookmarks
- need bookmark import from microB (I have tons)
- doesn't seem to do autocomplete with full-screen keyboard
- clicking the back button seems to do a content-reload instead of a cache-replay

Nevertheless, I'm impressed, and quite thankful. Great work.

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

To delete bookmarks you can unstar them (though it's a slow process till a bookmark manager in place).

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

Or use Bongo's mgr to delete. See in this thread #801 then 804 then 1.

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

I can't seem to picture how that will work... :)

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

I'm not sure about the ajax part: I got the same download dialog when I posted my previous reply here using tear (though the message appeared on the forum), and the "Submit reply" button is a plain submit with no javascript attached.

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

I already have Midori from repositories on my tablet, is it safe to install Tear, are they compatible?

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

I think Midori is using the same libwebkit.

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

It's an older one, I'd strongly advise to use Bundyo's latest build over that.

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

Thanks, if i'll just use qole's repository, the new libwebkit will overwrite the old one, and midori's gonna use it too?

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

Yep, I personally use Bundyo's libwebkit with Midori.

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

Open microB;
Only use on-screen keyboard;
Notice how familar terms will auto-complete.

Open Tear;
Only use on-screen keyboard;
Notice how auto-complete doesn't

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

Most of all we need a new thread... This one is overweight :)

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

Yup, we need.

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

I say Bundyo starts a new thread: "Tear 0.4" or something similar... :D

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

Naah, more like 0.3.1 :p

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

Hmm so reading your comments about bookmarklets and other issues like google.com/calendar/gp. Are you using the same webkit and Tear version as the ones say in Qole's repo.

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

Who's comments?

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

Your comments on the bugtracker. You said the bookmarklet works when copy and pasted into URL (though I don't seem to get a similar result) and that google.com/calendar/gp loads fine for you.
