The + widget will request the size of the whole page as its size + requisition. + - Many a11y improvements. + - The usual amount of other misc fixes. + - WEBKIT_DEBUG variable now accepts channel names in any case + again. + +================= +WebKitGTK+ 1.1.11 +================= + +What's new in WebKitGTK+ 1.1.11? + + - WebKit has got a new feature - a XSS auditor, that should improve + security; this feature is still experimental, and disabled by + default, but applications can enable it using the setting. + - The hackish content sniffing code that was beig used to avoid + pages requesting downloads instead of displaying content has been + replaced by usage of a new Soup feature, which implements proper + content sniffing. + - More accessibility work, including fixes for problems which were + critical for a possible GNOME 2.28 release. + - Pasting rich text from other browsers should now work as expected. + - The usual amount of misc fixes. + +================= +WebKitGTK+ 1.1.10 +================= + +What's new in WebKitGTK+ 1.1.10? + + - WebKitNetworkRequest has now GObject properties for its URI and + the SoupMessage that backs it up. + - Fix AtkText methods get_selection and get_n_selections to not use + the global selection but only the selection that belongs to the + object being used. + - Fix a crasher when emitting the a11y signal 'text-caret-moved' in + some situations with debug builds. + +================ +WebKitGTK+ 1.1.9 +================ + +What's new in WebKitGTK+ 1.1.9? + + - Scrolling once again received a lot of love, and many subtle + problems and bugs were killed, and we now get correct behavior in + acid2; a number of smaller improvements are in the queue. + - Accessibility keeps gaining better support. On this release a lot + of work was done on the AtkText interface implementation. + - WebKitNetworkRequest now carries with it all the information + regarding the request, not only the URI. This means you will no + longer miss headers such as Referer when passing NetworkRequest + objects from a callback to webkit_web_frame_load_request. + +================ +WebKitGTK+ 1.1.8 +================ + +What's new in WebKitGTK+ 1.1.8? + + - We found out that WebKitWebHistoryItems were being kept with a + reference count of 2 instead of 1 as they should; nobody should be + relying on that, but if you hit reference counting problems with + items you were creating yourself, this is for you. + - You can now copy images from the web page to the clipboard. + - Improvements were made to the Plugin handling code. + - Scroll events will now be correctly reported to web applications. + - You can now embed arbitrary widgets as if it was a plugin, with + the new "create-plugin-widget" signal. + - The atk_text_get_text_{at,after,before}_offset methods are now + implemented for all boundary types except LINE_AFTER and + LINE_BEFORE. + - The usual stream of minor fixes and improvements, as always. + +================ +WebKitGTK+ 1.1.7 +================ + +What's new in WebKitGTK+ 1.1.7? + + - This release includes a security fix: + SVGList::insertItemBefore would not perform a bounds check on the + index it was provided, potentially leading to a buffer overflow. + - New frame loading properties supersede various load-* signals, and + are also accessible in the WebView, for convenience, making this + API saner. + - JIT is now supported for X86-64 on Linux, and enabled by default! + - A regression on webkit_web_view_load_string has been fixed, making + it work correctly again when the document uses encodings which may + use more than 1 byte per character. + - Yet more work has been done to the ATK support, caret browsing + support improvements in particular. + - Filenames suggested by the Download functionality now correctly + use the filename given by the host, if available. + - Build fixes for IA64, and AMD64 + - gtk-doc support has also improved, and you should now be able to + cd WebKit/gtk/docs and type make docs, if you --enable-gtk-doc on + configure, as long as you build with srcdir == builddir. + - More crashes and other bugs fixed, and small improvements made + under the hood. + +================ +WebKitGTK+ 1.1.6 +================ + +What's new in WebKitGTK+ 1.1.6? + + - Several ATK support additions and fixes got landed, with many + roles being now implemented, providing better accessibility. + - Caret browsing is now available. + - Spelling check has been implemented using Enchant; the API is + still lacking, and some of the functionality still needs to be + improved, though. + - Error reporting is now available, with default error pages, and + API that allows the application to override the default behavior; + localization of those pages is still not supported, but planned. + - More crashes and other bugs fixed. + +================ +WebKitGTK+ 1.1.5 +================ + +What's new in WebKitGTK+ 1.1.5? + + - Added gtk-doc support to the build system. It is not fully + integrated yet, so some manual tweaking is still needed. + - Minimum required GTK+ version is now 2.10. + - Added l10n support with gettext. Translations are stored in + WebKit/gtk/po/. + - Many improvements to the ATK support. It's good enough to provide + a basic user experience with Accerciser now, but we'll keep + improving it in further releases. + - New printing API that allows applications to control and monitor + the printing process, when requested by javascript or started by + the user. + - Many bugfixes. + +================ +WebKitGTK+ 1.1.4 +================ + +What's new in WebKitGTK+ 1.1.4? + + - WebKitWebView gained uri and title properties, deprecating the + usage of the title-changed signal. + - Basic functionality for HTML5 media tags has been achieved; there + are many unimplented methods, and rough edges still, though. + - Font rendering received quite some love, with layouting, and + memory handling fixes, and at least one less crash. + - A new signal, new-window-policy-decision-requested, has been added + to WebKitWebView, that makes it possible for the application to + correctly decide what to do when new windows are requested. + - A bug that made tooltips for consecutive links not update their + location was fixed. + - Several improvements were made to the HTTP backend, including + making it more robust when talking to servers which send bad + Content-Type headers. + - WebKitWebView now uses the GtkBinding system to handle key events, + which means that the user is now able to customize the keys used + for various operations, and that many subtle bugs have been fixed. + +================ +WebKitGTK+ 1.1.3 +================ + +The 1.1.3 release was just a quick bug fix release, because we made a +mistake in library versioning. + ================ WebKitGTK+ 1.1.2 ================ |
