AmigaOS browser with css support?
« on: July 15, 2004, 11:19:40 AM »
Hey,

is there an AmigaOS browser (I use OS 3.9) which supports css (stylesheets)?
75% of the websites look like crap now. Using the original registered version of IBrowse 2.3 now.
Already tried to find something but no luck...

Can anyone help me out?

but are they planning to develop one?
or maybe something like a plugin (I'm not really like a programmer :P)
I saw at the IBrowse site the plans but when is this version gonna finish?

There's a group porting Mozilla to the Amiga (but think PPC only at least).

There's also the Amizilla bounty and project. I'm not sure if a PPC only port would qualify for the bounty though.

Hi djkoelkast

IBrowse developer team, is still working on.

The first update, will be IB 2.4 (bugfixes and some little enhanchements) soon.

The CSS-DOM support, is planned for the 3.0 version but the release date, hasn't been announced.

Ciao

If you check the agent field in the amiga.org access logs, i'll bet you get at least one "IBrowse 2.4 Beta" (possibly not that exact string). There are a few guys testing it right now, but i don't know if it has ALL the features of the final 2.4.

Edit: Heres an actual quote from the petergordon.org.uk access logs... "0.10%  IBrowse/2.4beta (AmigaOS 4.0)"

No.
Perhaps Galaxy o Galaxy will tackle KHTM eventually for his Konquerer Browser, but nothing decided, yet.

Then I advise you to forget CSS and modern browsing standards and stick with ugly IBrowse, because at least IBrowse will work at decent speed on 68k. Any decent modern CSS/HTML4 engine will be too slow on any real 68k, even if the coder optimises the hell out of it. And they wouldn't want to do that, it would make it too hard to maintain.
