It makes character handling less readable. If you want it, you will know that and will know how to get it working. The insert mode is now removed in the tip of surf. Yes, it will only confuse people and there is no real need for the insert mode in average browsing. Who will send the patch to replace Webkit with something sane? Sincerely, Christoph Lohmann

Sincerely, Christoph Lohmann Well there is no sane thing for web, and I think trying to make one would drive the creator insane. I think the closest thing to sanity between web browsers is edbrowse (and I'm joking here only very very slightly).
Re: [dev] [surf] Disable javascript
I read them, but I suppose I don't remember them... No. Not to sound too rude, but this is not the problem here... Welcome to How to answer almost all your questions about any software without wasting other people's time: 1. Is there a manual? If no goto 2 else 1a 1a. Have you read it? If no read it; goto 1c 1b. Do you remember all of it? If no read/search it; goto 1c 1c. Is the answer to your question in the manual? If no goto 2; else done 2. Google it. 5min time investment minimum. goto 2a 2a. Found a solution? If no goto 3; else done 3. You may now start involving other people. Good luck. Some futher observations: Both 1 and 2 would have solved your problem. The man page includes information about '-s', and google's first answer to suckless surf disable java script is the man page as well, highlighting '-s'. The reason why I wrote this: instead of taking 5 min of your own time, you just went ahead and posted a trivial question to a mailing list of many people (how many?), thus wasting, even if only 1 min, of everyone's time. This is not only rude to others, but this also adds up to a lot more time wasted than you would have on your own. Sorry for wasting the time of those people who follow this algorithm, maybe it will save some time in the future though (I don't have much hope for that :( )

Even if the answer to this problem is there; I was searching for a way to zoom with surf, and I have not found it in the online man. [1] http://man.suckless.org/surf
Re: [dev] [surf] Disable javascript
Well, you don't know what I did, so don't judge too fast. I alsa used for a while a kind of noscript in .surf/script.js. I did read the manual, a long time ago, bit I did.

Re: [dev] [surf] Disable javascript
Quoth Thuban: I alsa used for a while a kind of noscript in .surf/script.js. Care to share the details? I'd like to be able to disable javascript on a per site basis, but have never got around to doing that. Adding proper support in surf rather than just script.js would probably be better, but I'd be interested to hear what you hacked together.
Re: [dev] [surf] Disable javascript
Well, you don't know what I did, so don't judge too fast. I'm stating facts, take away any judgement you feel entitled to. Fact is: your question was trivial; the answer to your question *was* one man surf or web search away. I did read the manual, a long time ago, bit I did. And I'm sure such mistakes can happen to anyone. Yes, I have read many man pages, too, and i too am sure that almost anyone forgets this stuff eventually. I'm just saying, instead of making these mistakes you should take a moment to consider re-reading man or doing the research yourself, before bothering other people. Also stop making excuses - you asked a trivial question (nothing more, nothing *bad* happened - no need for excuses really). Maybe next time you can avoid making this mistake. Have a nice day

Hello, Sorry, not related to the per site basis : The handiest way to deal with javascript on surf at the moment is IMO the toggle patch you put on the wiki, being able to toggle on the fly is very convenient. As a side note, I wonder how difficult would it be to create a generic toggle function for surf which could be called with any WebKitWebSettings boolean parameter in config.h such as auto-load-images, enable-scripts and so on ... It is out of my reach because I don't c but maybe some more knowledgeable user has a clue about it. Furthermore, it could save surf a few command line switches, but I guess that if they're here at the moment it's because someone use them ... -- Julien

Re: [dev] [surf] Disable javascript
No problem. The method is based on a piece of code found on uzbl wiki. Just paste this in ~/.surf/script.js (see attachement). The first part of the code is just simple rules towhitelist some domains. (see examples) Have a nice day everyone!

Insert mode? Since when did surf become modal? Why is this needed (except for people who like to pretend they're using vim)? In my experience modality in a web browser seems neat for the first day or two, then becomes really annoying, as you have to keep track of which mode you're in, keep accidentally toggling stuff rather than typing into text fields, etc.
