debian lenny, some thoughts

[Janek Kozicki]

Hi,

I wanted to let you know that *currently* galeon on debian lenny
works surprisingly well:

- acroread plugin works - please don't break that once again!
- flash works

but flashblock doesn't work. Maybe you could built-in flashblock into
galeon? It's the most useful thing ever. You know in the top menu:

Web->Allow Java
Web->Allow JavaScript
Web->Allow Flash    (please add this one!)


Another idea:

When I right-click on image I have an "Open with" menu available.
There are a lot of apps to chose from! This is great.


Can you, please, add exactly the same menu, when I right click on a
link? I think it wouldn't be too difficult for you code-wise.


I'm asking for that, because in this menu I can "Open with->Opera".
This will make it possible to open a link in alternative browser,
when I need to. It will be extremely useful in some cases, because
now I need to copy/paste the URL when I need to use opera.

thanks a lot,
--

The problem with flashblock is that the new version of Gecko or
XULRunner or whatever it is has stopped listening to
~/.galeon/mozilla/galeon/Chrome/userContent.css (or whatever the file
is). This is, presumably, part of Mozilla's ploy to convince us that
Firefox --- in reality a pretty average browser --- is one of the
best, by breaking other browsers. The whole feature needs to be added,
because unless you can control the appearance of webpages it becomes
really difficult to read them.

Well in order to do that you'll need to know the mimetype of the file.
Otherwise how are you meant to know if it's an image or not, to put
the right menu in?

But then, I'm not a Galeon dev, just a rabid fanboi.
