Thanks!
I'm still getting familiar with the code, but please let me know if there is
anything I can do to help with cairo/curl work.-Paul

You correctly determined that the current build instructions are out of date.
Yes, some updates are required.I have been planning to update the wiki page
with enhanced directions on how to build. Please wait and I will update it
over the next couple of days.Best,Dan

Should following the directions for building WebKit using Cairo and CURL work?
I tried to build webkit yesterday with updated source code based on the wiki
page directions and I have 39 errors.My company is evaluating using WebKit on
Windows CE and as a first step I am trying to build webkit on Windows XP
without any non-redistributable Apple libraries.Best regards,Paul

Hi Patrick,Glad to hear the positive feedback on Safari/WebKit performance on
Windows. IMHO, this performance is due much more to the WebKit portion--much
less to the Safari layer.Please note that if you would like to use WebKit on
Windows, the mainstream version requires non-redistributable Apple libraries.
This means you cannot use it in a commercial application.However, there is an
effort underway to replace the Apple libraries with opensource alternatives.
See http://trac.webkit.org/projects/webkit/wiki/BuildingCairoOnWindows. This
should give you a solution that you can use with your commercial
application.Best,Dan

Hi List. My company is developing an in-store kiosk application using
DHTML/Ajax, etc. It has to be Windows for a variety of reasons. The goal is
to have a nice looking interface with lots of tasteful, fancy animations. We
were initially planning to use Internet Explorer to maximize hardware
peripheral integration (i.e. card reader, proximity sensor, etc.) and most
kiosk management software vendors assume IE; but needless to say IE's
performance is suboptimal. Firefox is much better. But Safari blows them all
away in every respect – JavaScript performance, rendering speed of animations,
overall prettiness, etc. My big question… How much of Safari's prowess can be
attributed to WebKit? I ask because I have tried both Adobe Air's WebKit port
and the latest QT QWebView widget and I just don't see the same results – they
are both good, but not nearly as smooth and pretty. Why is Safari so much
better, and is there any way to get that Safari experience in locked down
fullscreen mode? Thanks for indulging. Patrick p.s. apologies if this is not
the appropriate forum for this question
