QuoteMello1) Accept the limitation and use a 2 browser system: K-m + Another. I've been doing this since Netscape was a boy. And kept doing it even when Netscape became a disaster zone and IE showed us how it should be done, and when FF was telling us what sites it would let us surf to. This was when IE was enabling site child-safety ratings client-side, that FF didn't want to care

We have no means of propulsion, and no means of steering. The latest releases by roytam1 are using the 4-year-old Goanna 3 engine which simply cannot keep up with current web technology. Goanna 4 was released August 16 2018, it is already showing wrinkles, and it would seem Goanna 5 is probably getting pre-release testing -- I expect that to appear sometime in mid-2021. The current K-M she

QuoteJ.G.Any way to merge Goanna 4 inside KMeleon then? :s It would appear not. I don't pretend to know what I'm talking about, but it looks very much as though the entire K-M shell -- Windows APIs and all -- has to be completely rewritten. It appears we have to pick up all new entry points to connect the shell to the engine. Given that I'm finding a new site every week that

Quoteroytam1 everything. Gecko > 38 starts eliminating shared javascript engine and embedding support. for example, wine gecko stops at gecko 47. Sorry @roytam1, I'm missing something here. I am aware that Goanna is based upon Gecko. I am also aware that -- being a fork -- Goanna is slowly becoming not Gecko. If I understand you correctly, Goanna 4 is sufficiently different from Gec

Quoteroytam1these settings do not exist in Goanna3. So what is stopping us from going to G4? And this is something that must happen since G3 is about as far out-of-date as I care to contemplate.

Hi @roytam1 - I'm having a bit of trouble reaching a bank account in K-M, and my research started looking at the HSTS settings. Pale Moon 28.14.1 has these config settings: security.mixed_content.send_hsts_priming;true security.mixed_content.use_hsts;false but K-M76.3.1 b20201205 does not, in spite of the fact that HSTS has been around for quite some time. (I have added them ) I

Quoteroytam1... because KM76.3 has stricter javascript syntax ... Ever since I first used K-M I always thought it was fault-intolerant but I never found how to prove it. Fault-intolerance is good. Yes you miss out on "fun", but you are much less likely to be infected. It's just a shame that web-weavers are too lazy to stick within standards, so we miss out.

Quotekmon @roytam1 thanks! ... that in version 76.3 some things work worse than in version 76.2. But it seems that this should not be? ... HOOOKayyy... Does not work in 76.3 DOES work in PM 28.14.1 Don't care about IE11 Sooo... Goanna version, yes? Beyond @roytam1's reach :mad:

Remove the gabarge ( #!4tUUDaJC!EGgDnYELkRnhFsXdN65izlM5N87a-CF04CRRTuh6NoI ) at the end of the Mega URL, and we get a browser update page. MEGA.NZ basically wants current HTML5, and I walked straight in with Pale Moon 28.14.1. I supect the Mega team are optimising for the WebKit/Blink engine, exactly as too many web-weavers used to optimise for Trident. We note that Firefox and Chromium are

Quotegordon451 (Originally posted in a new thread by mistake) Went to JBHIFI, but eeurrgh I've just spent 2 hours going through K-M76.3b20200919 and PM28.6.1 side-by-side. There is very little difference between the (title-matching) About:Config entries, so I'm left with the suspicion that K-M has an older JS set, or is far less tolerant of poor coding practices. The problem

(Originally posted in a new thread by mistake) Went to JBHIFI, but eeurrgh On Pale Moon 28.6.1, Is there a setting I need? (I will admit that the wealth of tweaks in K-M is not a complete blessing :s) I did a clean install after wiping out the old K-M, but kept my original user settings folder, I've got far too much stuff I can't easily recreate in there.

Quotecpb.thomson Why aren't the necessary settings implemented directly in the launched version, so that I don't have to go through the settings? Very impractical Like the grains of sand on the beach they are. How big is your HDD? A better solution would be for Google to stop trying to out-Microsoft Microsoft, and allow people to use their preferred browser to upload folders. But

QuoteAnonymous ... Chromium is ahead of FF and derivatives in terms of security: https://grapheneos.org/usage#web-browsing I like Mozilla-type browsers better than Chromium-based ones, but we should still stick with the truth, no? OK, you have your opinion, and yes I have just skimmed the article. HOWEVER. The QtWeb/WebKit/Blink family does not allow the user to "lift the lid",

QuoteJohnHellDon't worry, Gordon, post wherever you want. If you want to do it here, do it here. Thanks, John. But we do need (I have an Obsessive-Compulsive need) to keep the thread tidy when I respond to something. I don't have the time to police the thread, and yes, the whole forum definitely needs a rework, but we do what we can. Enjoy the fish!

QuoteStayatHome Hello everybody! How well does Kmeleon browser handle in case of hacker attacks? Does this browser have the same security as Google Chrome or any other major browser? Can I use it in banking operations? Thank you in advance! K-Meleon is a Mozilla browser, and gives access to many technical settings theat other browsers hide from you. Mozilla is generally (much) more secure than

Quotepaul453 Kmeleon 76.2.1 gives me an error when I want to upload files to Google Drive ... Thanks for giving us the OS info, it always helps. I'm not sure Google Chrome will fit on WinXP of any description, so I'm inclined to think maybe your problems might actually be in the Operating System rather than the browser. I think perhaps Google Drive needs a current OS (Win7++) as w

I don't use any ad blocking, but the only ads I see on Youtube are stitched into the videos. I'm not sure there's a way to remove those. I have never seen any "pop-up" ads on Youtube.

Quotesmiley Why don't you add the update check function to this browser? Look in F2 Preferences > K-Meleon Plugins, down at the bottom is Update Checker "Occasionally looks for new K-Meleon releases". However--IIRC--it does not look at this thread, and probably could use an update itself.
