  2. Hello,

    excellent web browser BUT very useful feature Form History Filler does not work!
    May be i do not correct use it? Please help and tell me, how it works correctly? Can i use it for login/password form filling or not?

  3. Hi,

    Thanks for your dev efforts. Giving a try to your Midori. Seems a fine alternative.

    Please, give some thought to implementing “aliases”, that is, abbreviation shortcuts for web addresses, just like the feature found on Opera (called “nicks”) and Firefox (called “keywords”). For ex.: once set, the user only has to type, into the address bar, say, “goo”, visiting http://www.google.com, “mjg”, for http://www.majorgeeks.com and so on…

    Also, in my opinion a must-have feature worth-implementing would be the ability of importing Opera hotlinks (with nicks and all) and/or Firefox bookmark collections (also with keywords and all).

    Regards from Brazil.

    Good luck.

  4. Currently testing Midori on the Saluki OS.
    Great little browser, but one problem. The HTML5 support is not quite right. It is great for opening pages as an application, but, it doesn’t offer full offline support. Take read.amazon.com their online kindle app, works very well in firefox but in Midori the Pin book function does not seem to work meaning you can only read your books when you are connected to the internet.

    Be great if you could fix this, happy to help with the testing.

  6. hi,
    os : ubuntu precise pangolin
    installed Midori
    when trying to open, received this message :
    “the page http://www…… couldn’t be loaded
    cannot resolve proxy hostname ()” !
    I don’t use any proxy, just a router
    what can I do to fix the problem ?

  7. Great tip, thanks!Maybe avoid an accadentil push (nah, no idea how that could happen), one could usegit config global url.git://git.gnome.org/.insteadof gnome:this way you get access to the read only versionAlso to my big surprise i found out how good the tab-autocompletition in command line works try it out!

  8. Sorry, I don’t know the answer to that. I built this kreenl for a headless board that had a USB flash drive but otherwise no display, keyboard, or mouse.You might want to hop on #ubuntu-arm on freenode and see if they can help. The stock binary kreenl has everything under the sun and might cover what you need already.

  10. Midori is a lovely lightweight browser: congratulations and thanks.

    Just one plea :

    PLEASE don’t “fatten it” needlessly in this new variant, by adding email handling. Email is a quite separate function, needing a heavyweight client (because it has to have access to endless thousands of locally stored historial mails) – there is no reason to have all that baggage hanging on the back of a web browser. What we need is lightness and speed, which you’ve achieved brilliantly.

    I can’t imagine why anyone would want to combine an email client with a browser – the two are for different purposes, different work contexts, different times of the workng day.

    At least – PLEASE keep Midori available as a separate entity, if you do go in this new direction.

    Thanks a lot

  15. Please don’t bloat.
    Plenty of room for customization, should one want to:
    ~/.config/midori/extensions/
    ~/.config/midori/config
    ~/.local/share/midori/[styles extensions]
    “…aims to be lightweight and fast.” That’s why I like it. Please don’t change Midori into one of them bloatware browsers like IE. Mail, chat, all that plerf can be accessed easily via html or personal extensions.
    {Those who want Midori to work in Windows should try out XFCE4}
    I agree with pingback: https://duckduckgo.com/ is my new favorite search engine.
    Thank your for providing this fast, lightweight html rendering app!

  26. Hi
    very good, using the version from standard Ubuntu 12.04 repo. Although in Firefox, I can click into the url line and see previously visited sites. Autocompletion works fine but I miss that, maybe there’s a hint for that?
    Thanks.

  27. I would totally switch to Midori if it would support Ghostery.

    Please create a preference settings for tabs, so I can choose which tab gets showed after closing another tab… now it automatically switches to the last tab, even if it’s empty. For instance, I have 5 tabs, tab 5 is empty, I go to tab 4 and load a page, I click on a link with ctrl pressed, in a new tab… if I close that tab, I do not return to tab 4, but the empty tab 5 !

    Good browser… Nice Job !

  44. No bookmarks?
    I am going to need a few pages for my speed dials and that will be a slow dial by then.

    And when I wish to download something I’d like to be consulted about where it is going to be saved. Being fast is good but not if I have to chase after it to clean up.

    I have only just got hold of the browser so I don’t have anything to compare it with. Thanks for the work though.

  45. Hi, i cannot open my mail account on outlook.com, when i introduce the email and pass, and click on go, only recharge the same page over and over again, if i copy-paste the direction from firefox, and put in preferences “identify like Firefox” i enter, but to the mobile version of outlook, i tested the others identifications.

  46. Midori works well in Windows 7 (detected as OSX flash, html5), sites that gave me problems with Opera (http 500) or Safari 5.1.7 (please drop down boxes) I have not. IDM works well and the only thing I have noticed that when leaving not clear the history and CCleaner does not detect the portable version

  47. Hello.I have a bug to report.Well ,that is it . After I run the command “./ configure”,it said “Checking for program version valac >= 0.1.6 : not found
    /root/Downloads/midori-0.4.7/wscript:107: error: valac version too old to be used with this tool” However, my version of valac is 0.1.8, it is not old at all. I think the version is new for midori .
