Update: Version 2.9.7 is out now
This version brings some improvements only in combination with the QtWebkit 5.212 that you can get from here:
https://build.merproject.org/package...ml5Audio+Video
Some improvements in using webcat include the hold on close button to close all tabs (except the one empty one) aswell as a more thumb friendly landscape interface splitting bookmarks and tabs vertically instead of horizontally.
The Bookmarkbutton is now only visible when the url text is marked which makes some more room for title and url by default.
The reload button was redundant and the extraToolbar buttons got replaced with a close this tab button.
To make it easier for inputing text with native SailfishOS spellchecking + marking + copying of text a new mode allows entering native text editing page by long pressing on a textarea or input of the website.
The device Pixel Ratio Hack has been overhauled to faster and more reliably set the correct DPR.
HTML5 Audio Tag detection has been turned on and shows now also audio files in mediaBar.
The default Adblocker has been updated to use less memory and block more ads.
A fix for windows.onload function does not overwrite the sites scripting there anymore which allows some sites to run way better or at all like acid3 test or css3 test.
As usual you can find the
RPMs on openrepos.net
Long press on close button in tabview closes all tabs
Hide bookmarkbutton by default only show when urlbar is focussed
Replace reload button in extraToolbar with closeTabButton
Reduce spacing between BackIcon and ForwardIcon in toolbar
Split Bookmarkspage in 2 columns with bookmarks on the left and tabs on the right if in landscape
Added optional input method by long pressing on input box (opens a native input editing dialog)
Updated devicePixelRatioHack
Enable experimental.overview to better work with devicePixelRatioHack
Deactivated pollyfills that aren't necessary anymore (new qtwebkit 5.212 takes care of it upgrade to it if you need svg and full es6 support)
Save if media in MediaList is ytMedia
Disable HTML5 Audio & Video workarounds (qtwebkit 5.212 takes care of html5 audio + video)
Enable HTML5 Audio Tag detection and add to MediaList
Slight update of the default user agent
Handle onEnterFullScreen and onExitFullScreen
Fix Restore Backup functionality
Replaced old Adblocker rules with something more recent
Attach to window.onload instead of overwriting it (fixes some sites like acid3 test or css3 test not loading)
Some DevicePixelRatioHack.js optimizations
Added alternative webkit user agent *(used by Sailfish Browser for youtube)
Updated Jolla Sailfish Browser user agent
