Version 13 of hv3

Updated 2008-03-13 19:50:00 by escargo

Html Viewer 3 (hv3) is a powerful yet minimalist web browser that uses Tkhtml3 as a rendering engine and SEE (Simple ECMAScript Engine) [L1 ] to interpret scripts. The application itself is written in Tcl. Currently it is at alpha stage. Please try it out, then report bugs or make suggestions.

Hv3 already has a good level of CSS standards compliance: it passes the Acid 2 test [L2 ]

KJN: it is very close to passing the Acid 2 test - in this case it does a much better rendering than my Firefox 2.0.0 browser!

It does pass the acid2 test. If you know of a reason why this is not true, post a bug report.

KJN: I've tried again with the hv3-linux-nightly-08_0203.gz binary from the home site, and it is indeed a 100% pass - very nice work. Previously I had tried the version hv3-20071223.etk from the eTcl site: this adds a red bar to the bottom left of the face.

MHo:

  • Where can I specify the proxy?
  • Without support for a proxy autoconfig script (proxy.pac), usage is problematic

DK77 Proxy support is incomplete: http://tkhtml.tcl.tk/cvstrac/tktview?tn=277
