Hi all, I have fixed several parts of Simple WebKit (http://wiki.gnustep.org/ index.php/SimpleWebKit) and it now works quite well when displaying text only pages on GNUstep. On Cocoa <img> also works - but we still track down a bug when doing the same with GNUstep.
The recent additions are * X(HT)ML parser made incremental, so that it directly handles incoming html fragments and allows to stall when a <script> tag requires to load a subresource before continuing parsing * text attributes are made more complete (e.g. <em>, <tt>, <sub>, <u>, <stike> etc.) - appearance depends on NSTextView's capabilities * preliminary <hr> support * handling of JavaScript - it gets parsed and evaluated, but the evaluator lacks most functionality There is a test bed application "SWK Browser" which I use to test all those bells and whistles of the WebKit API (e.g. notifications) which now also provides a DOM tree inspector. It is not intended to be used as a browser - but you can... It is part of the SWK sources and there is a version that is compiled for MacOS X 10.4: http://www.quantum-step.com/download/SWKBrowser.app.zip If you have access to a Mac (with 10.4) please download, try out and give feedback! The results so far are quite encouraging and show the power of Objective-C (no ++) 1.0. On MacOS X it is quite fast. Although I have not done any iBench test the subjective impression is that it is not slower than any other browser.
