View Full Version : New version of Doris Browser coming!


25-03-2003, 09:03 AM
Hi guys!

A bird whispered in my ear that a new version of Doris Browser is coming soon! The update is free for all registered users...

The most important/cool changes:
Implemented: open URL command (at last!)
- "basic" authentication. Prompts for user name/password, also supports bookmarks: "http://username:password@www.server.com/page.html".
- backlight inactivity period increased from 15 to 60 seconds while Doris Browser is the active application. :-)
- same image multiple times on a page: drawn faster.
- prompts to send the form data when the text writing dialog is closed if there is no submit button in a form.
- "rtsp:" protocol support via external viewer (Emblaze/Real Player/custom path).
- Fixed: a bug causing large image maps not working.
- Implemented: persistent cookies.
- Implemented: delete cookies command.
- Implemented: support for localhost addresses (localhost, 127.0.0.1).
- Implemented: some more ways to recover from bugs and non-standard code in HTML pages.

Looking good!!

-Thomas

The Beta of version 1.15 is available from their site already for quite some time. If the Mods allow it, I can post the link...

Posting links to betas on the Doris developers website is fine.

Thanks Rafe,

Just thought, because I couldn't find an official hyperlink to the SIS file.

Anyway, here it is (http://www.anygraaf.fi/browser/beta/15/Browser_1_15.sis).

Of course it's the eval version with the well know limitations. But still great improvements!

AEFOX, is it now as fast as Webviewer? With the 3 minute limit I couldn't evaluate Doris properly, but although it has a lot of good features, I found it too slow (when I'm browsing, the most important thing is getting the page loaded quickly).

I agree with the face... although the full screen mode helps there :)
