Fixed,
I'll keep the second revision in standby in order to fix more issue reports (if any) and/or add new localizations (if any).
If everything is ok, I will update the package tomorrow.
Thanks for reporting!

It is of course better. But the page is narrowed and compressed. See how displays the stockbrowser.
Feel the difference..

The narrowing issue is related to the component (Also, I have tried to load the webpage without custom scripts but the behaviour is the same), I can't do anything for that atm.
However I will investigate the issue. in order to find a solution :)

Hey! I just noticed I can't seem to make my own custom html file as a homepage at all. If I add my line like this, "file:///home/nemo/.homepage/homepage.html" it automatically adds "http://" in the beginning of the line so it looks like this "http://file:///home/nemo/.homepage/homepage.html". This applies for both quickmark and homepage entries in the settings. I don't really think this is a bug so I wonder if this is just a feature to prevent mistypings and make urls correct? If there are some ways to disable it, please let me know :)

Hi!
I never thought that someone used a custom html as homepage :D
Yeah, the "http://" prepending is a feature, but it can be enhanced.
I'm relatively close to release the 1.0, I will extend the check in order to avoid unwanted situations such as the one you have found.
Thanks for reporting!
Edit: Currently there is now way to "disable" that feature, unless you modify the source code.

Hey again!
That was quite a fast reply. Oh, I've been using this custom thing for ages on my computer too :) Guess I'll be patiently waiting for the next release to see what it has to offer, thanks!

Weird bug, maybe a "me-only" one: some credentials are saved truncated (only 1st two characters of userID and/or password are memorized).

Hi,
It happens with every website?

No. Only some, but systematically. Examples: lastpass.com, webmail.skynet.be

I do encounter this bug as well. I found out that it only happens when the username contains an at (@).

Hi dax,
thx for you're work. I'm heavily using linksbag (sailfish getpocket client). In the jolla browser he detects the available accounts from the sfos and I'm able to share via mail, bt, linksbag etc. In webpirate only gmail, fb & twitter available. So it' s not using the device accounts. Have you planned to integrate a feature like this? I would use this browser as a daily driver. But can't live without this feature.
Thx for you're work and keep it up!

Hi carepack!
No I'm not using device's accounts.
I need to check the stock browser's source code in order to implement a *real* account integration.
I'll try to do something for the next version :)

Hi,
I have planned it for post 1.0 release, if you have some ideas feel free to post here, or open an issue on GitHub :)
In the meantime I will take a look at UC Browser, on my Android smartphone :)

The Downloadmanager show me only how many download are taken.
Can you create an progressbar? At the moment I don't know when a download is completed.
To determine the save- location would also be very nice.
Thank you very much for this great Browser!

Hi,
The progress bar is implemented, there is also the download status.
About the download location, I use the standard "Downloads" folder.
I can make the progress bar bigger, so it is more visible.

I found a bug:
I use DuckDuckGo as searchmachine. If I have to set a region under DuckDuckGo-Preferences, I can not scroll down to Germany. Under sailfishbrowser it works.

Hi,
I cannot reproduce the issue, I'm able to scroll down to Germany.
Could you be more specific?
Thanks!

Okay, my mistake. You are right. It works when I start from DuckDuckGo mainpage.
But when I had started a search and then go to preferences it works not. (Sorry for my bad english...)
This opens a list at the right side of the screen. This can not be scrolled.

Ok, now I'm able to reproduce it :)
It's a WebKit issue, I can't do anything :(
