Hao,

As an end user, I am not quite clear about how Mozilla Foundation has incorporated SQLite into their browsers. I see that you have SQLite files, but as DLLs, not SQLites. What is the difference? I'm dim when it comes to this side of things, you see.

<SIGH>

P.S. BTW, I really enjoy the theme and how you put it together. Much to play with here. TKs.

ndebord,

I 'm not really into mozilla/seamonky development especially when it goes into 1.9x. To my understanding, they incorporated SQLite database into their structure, for example, you will find cookies.sqlite, formhistory.sqlite, permissions.sqlite, places.sqlite, signons.sqlite and urlbarhistory.sqlite files in the latest seamonkey 2.0 profile folders. All .sqlite data are encrypted other than plain texts as in the previous seamonkey versions. And the sqlite3.dll and other related ones are the browser components for running this database. Seamonkey 2.0 needs these dlls to run. So does K-MeleonCCF ME 0.09x since it's based on Seamonkey 2.0.

However K-Meleon core hasn't been able to implement all these Sqlite database, i.e. how to decrypt these .sqlite files and reading information out of them. And that's why currently the mozilla history and password manage is not working in this version. (I 'm using an old non-XUL history plugin to have the history work instead of sqlite data).

Apparently a lot of more coding needs to be done to have K-Meleon fully implemented the new Seamonkey 2.x structure (i.e. to use Sqlite database)

Hao,

I'm not sure that this is not a mixed blessing. I've seen the hard drive writes with large sqlite files in my FF 3.5 and I've heard that file corruption is no better than before. Perhaps finding a way to use an older password manager is not a bad thing either, as I've heard complaints about the ability to export passwords easily from the new system (although I have to say the password manager currently used in Gecko 1.8 is not the best thing out there. Don't have a clue about password manager options).

That is one of the reason I 'm using Dorian's 3 years old non-XUL history plugin right now. As long as it works fine, there 's really no need to go to sqlite. However the old file slows down when the history is big.

Well, to my mind, history is something best purged every time I use the browser, which is why I use Privacy Bar, but I do keep 9 days as my default in case I do want to revisit some sites using history. Usually I just bookmark stuff in GUL that i want to keep permanently and use the default bookmark manager for interim stuff. Passwords? Another problem altogether to my mind.

hmh, may I ask why you have IE6, disrupted? if you have an XP machine, you should have either IE7 or IE8 installed.

nice to hear K-meleonCCF ME 0.096 is out, Hao. I'll test it out ASAP

KmeleonCCF ME 0.096 worked okay on my XP desktop computer. I'll have to try it out on my mom's Vista laptop. KmeleonCCF ME 0.096 still does not work with FTP sites, only HTTP sites. Has Hao figured out why FTP sites like ftp.mozilla.org, ftp.netscape.com, ftp.microsoft.com, etc. can't be viewed in K-meleonCCF ME 0.09x?

the protocol is there, because in statusbar it correctly displays starting ftp transaction but then it prompts for saving the ;FOLDER;
it's weird, it cannot accept directories from ftp but if you point it toa specific file on the ftp host; it will open without problems
e,g
ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/index.html >-this it accepts

ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/ >-this it doesn't

fred's nx 1.9+ has the same problem but with different symptoms, instead of prompting to save the 'folder; it just stalls and doesn't do anuthing..again it will accept a direct file link on ftp host

I'm thinking to add a new function into next release:

When select text and middle click the mouse, kmccf will open a new tab and do search of selected text using the default search engine.

Do you think this function is useful or necessary?

I find that a very welcome feature, but I have just one niggle: mid-click is OK most of the times, but in some computers the mouses make that next to impossible, so why not use select+drag anywhere as is somewhat more common? (see Firefox with QuickDrag extension, Orca, etc)

Hao,

Cookies, it seems, can be run using Cookie Culler in SQLite or the old method. Password Manager (the old) uses I think "Wallet" and so we are still using that instead of SQLite? Personally I don't care for the integration of bookmarks, passwords, cookies and history in the Awesome Bar, but that is because I perceive that process as a privacy problem and a PITA when it comes to the address bar usage. Just my 2 cents worth on this.
