KM-17alpha-S2011 experimental

Date: December 13, 2010 07:43PM

I have updated KM-17 alpha to Gecko 1.9.1.16/date 20101209
from the brand-new Seamonkey 2.0.11 (from Seamonkey Tinderbox).
Note : This version needs the 80's runtimes. Download MSvce8dist.exe from
http://jujuland.pagesperso-orange.fr and install it.
The profile will be created inside the K-Meleon folder. If in Linux you want it inside
the ".wine" folder, because of user rights problems, rename the file profile.ini to profile.ini-renamed
before the first start.
This is just a proof of concept, not a polished final version, so some things may not work yet.

I'm using it right now, it look fast. I had to move the dll from the MSvce8dist.exe package to the KM-17alpha-S2011 folder manually. Not really a problem.

My OS: Win98SE with KernelEx 4.5.15. Compatibility tab set to XP Sp2.

Thank you very much for updating the version, Fred. This version is much more stable than the NX-1.9.1.16.

The "Search Button" does the search with Google by default; is it possible to make the default search engine Scroogle instead of Google? I tried to do with the solution you gave me for the NX-version, but does not work in the S2011 version.
Regards.

Luys,

I have Fred's version running OK on my XP PRO SP3 notebook and had no trouble adding the Scroogle search engine and then making it the default.

The key step is to use Tools/Web Search/Configure/SEARCH ENGINES and add these two lines there.

Scroogle

http://www.scroogle.org/cgi-bin/nbbw.cgi?Gw=

Then go back to configure and go to Web Search and click on ADD, scroll down and find Scroogle and use that as your default after removing the check mark from Google and after doing a search putting a check mark on Scroogle instead.

Worked for me.

Luys,

Glad it worked... someone else around here has a https version of scroogle that is even more secure, but I don't have the coding for it.

(KMSMS)
I use it (rare) in 1.5.4 and work, all right.

in 1.7alpha-exp. it was installed properly and suppose (?) in so same environment and kmsetting (privacy, proxy, etc.) like in 1.5.4.

I use kmsms for one receiver only. Country, provider and number was setting properly and checked.
It was first use kmsms in 1.7a-x. Connected,- but sent nothing. All very slow! Long spining wheel, No popup "your meessage was send".
- After few minutes I try send one more time with result like up.

I don't check this.- No third probe in 1.5.4 for test.
If you can, - check it, please.

It's first and only one stumble which I found
- 1.7a-x intalled 2.01.11 and frequently used.

Regards

M.

You are right, the message is not sent.
I have no idea, why it is not accepted.
Sorry that I cannot help in this.

look at
https://developer.mozilla.org/en/XUL/Attribute/browser.type

'The content that is loaded inside the browser is not allowed to access the chrome above it.'

Using xul browser or iframe 1.6/1.7:
fails using type: content, content-primary, content-targetable
works using type: chrome (default)

Example:
If using type content||content-primary||content-targetable in 1.6/1.7
window.content is null for the document loaded inside the new browser.

In latest nightly Firefox 4.0b9 window.content remains available.
There is no solution while K-Meleon 1.6/1.7 sources are unavailable.

Quickfix:
- change xul type=(content||content-primary||content-targetable) entries to type chrome
or overwrite with XXXXXX (default is chrome).
- or use OpenURL_InBg (with tabs enabled) instead of OpenURL_InNewWindow (because tabs have autotype)
- delete XUL.mfl after any change of /chrome

Thanks go to disrupted

Fred: can you confirm bug 1288 in bugtracking system
and delete my duplicated entry?

Latest binaries of kmeleon.exe are all from May 2010.
If their code is somewhere hidden in sourceforge cvs,
as god mentioned, a quick compare could fix it.

thanks

That explains why I had trouble seeing what files.

BTW. If the changes that are needed are in chrome's JavaSCript (which I think), that is used in human readable form in 1.6.beta2.

it is not in /chrome/*.jar

(updated information 2011-02-10/2011-02-14)

it is in /XUL.DLL
You can patch Firefox with Gecko > 1.9 to get same errors.
- bin-search-replace XUL.DLL content-primary>content-offmary
- (only one occurrence)
- run firefox -> error-console

(Example: XUL.DLL 2.0.0.4027)
================
-a??%<K?browser.
blink_allowed
browser.display.
normal_lineheigh
t_calc_control
content-primary
c o n t e n t -
content-targ
etable ¦É-ª¦§-?
================

'In Gecko 1.8.1 (Firefox 2) and earlier, the type may be 'content',
'content-primary' or some other 'content-' prefix. In Gecko 1.9 only
type='content-primary' and type='content-targetable' browsers may be
targeted.'

explanation found here:
http://fixunix.com/mozilla/406647-quirksmode.html

K-Meleon 1.6+ is missing the code for
content-primary' and content-targetable
which came with gecko 1.9.x.


In K-Meleon 1.6b2 the code for
content-primary' and content-targetable
which came with gecko 1.9.x.
is in components/gklayout.dll.
In K-Meleon 1.7a2 it is in XUL.DLL.
Apparently it is not used or
fails for some reason.

hey fred. Seamonkey 2.0.12 was released a few days ago.

wonder if you are going to make a new KM 1.7 alpha based on Seamonkey 2.0.12/Gecko 1.9.1.17.
