ThunderBrowse on Linux is ugly, because of different screen resolutions. There are two fixes to this. One is to install stylish and <a href="http://userstyles.org/styles/2910">add this userstyle</a> or to <a href="http://gamespotting.net/networks/tbrowse-style.xpi">install this extension</a> on top of ThunderBrowse.

You do know that you can have platform specific styles in your extension, don't you?

Can do that in css files? Or do I have to add something to the xul? I didn't know any other way to do so, other than through javascript checks which I rather not write (so tired..).

Sure you just use the /platform flag in your chrome.manifest. See Chrome_Registration->Platform-specific_packages

Here is an example from the DownThemAll chrome.manifest:

Code: Select all

content   dta-down-style   jar:chrome/dta.jar!/content/dta/style/   platform

And then in the dta jar we have:

Code: Select all

content
|
+-dta
  |
  +-style
    +--mac
    |  +--style.css
    +--unix
    |  +--style.css
    +--win
       +--style.css

Then you reference this using:

Code: Select all

<?xml-stylesheet href="chrome://dta-down-style/content/style.css"?>

I'm a keyboard freak and the fact that this extension has usurped CTRL-W bugs me.

Is there a way for me to change it to another key. Thanks.

On the amo page there is currently a discussion about this. Change <code>extensions.tbrowse.winkey</code> to the letter key you want instead. The next version will have an option in the settings window to change this (currently being translated).

2.8.7 Visit in Browser to visit a link doesn't work. I tried it with and without a path to custom browser. I also uninstalled and reinstalled.

netMASA · Post by **netMASA** » July 23rd, 2007, 2:16 pm

I know. It's fixed in the next version. Once you try to change the path, after you have cleared it, the setting will lock.

I told you how to fix it on the amo page

netMASA · Post by **netMASA** » July 26th, 2007, 9:57 am

You can now login to websites and such if you install the preview of CS Lite (in the settings set cookies to allow all):
