I found this browser. It is still lacking, but it has some advantages over dillo in that it can deal with css.
At the moment there are no bookmarks.
Looks promising.

You can get it from synaptic or apt-get install netsurf

What do you think?

I like it better than Dillo and has a better UI.
I been using it for a day and its not bad for surfing.
Had to test deli and liked how fast netsurf was.
Deli getting better but i think i'll stay with AntiX.

Actually one could make quasi-bookmarks for Netsurf. It's a Rube Goldberg approach, but it would work.

1) Using Seamonkey, Firefox or Opera, construct your bookmark collection.
2) Retrieve the bookmarks.html file from where stored and stick in /root.
3) Alternative to #2 would be to symlink to file.
4) Call up /root/bookmarks.html from Netsurf.

His is how puppy makes links for netsurf.
copy the bookmark file and place it your users home.
and call:

file:///home/harii/bookmarks.html

change your user home in place of harii

On netsurf--Edit-choices--then add that line in the Homepage URL.

Enjoy

This looks promising. However I am having some issues with this. Cpu spikes to 100% when starting the browser or opening a page. It also will not render the forum pages completely.

On my box it renders this forum ok, but not Mepislovers forum.
No 100% CPU use here either.

I will have to play with it.

Thanks for the info anti. I will also check it out.

Great little browser!! Light, fast, and looks good..... doesn't do tabs though, which is a must for me. Even Dillo does tabs! __{{emoticon}}__

Thanks for the info. My browser needs to have tabs as well!!! I will still check it out but that is a major issue!

I've had the same problem as erie. CPU goes to 100%. Half the pages are not rendered correctly. When I start netsurf with the terminal it starts but I see this in the terminal...

(netsurf:2560): Gtk-WARNING **: gtk_menu_attach_to_widget(): menu already attached to GtkMenuItem

Forgive my ignorance but what is this telling me?

I think I'm figuring it out. Something to do with the icons I picked in lxappearance I'm guessing. Just found out synaptic does a similar thing when ran from terminal and a number of icons are missing in synaptic.

So I had to try this browser.
It now has bookmarks, and tabs, even if I don't really"get" the way it does bookmarks.
Other than that, it seems to work ok, for me anyway.

Well, it says it can be run from the framebuffer without X. Do you think you could build an antix-core with netsurf/fb out-of-the box, anti (just with it included, not auto-starting)?
Anyway, that might be an interesting experiment. Almost instant boot and ready to browse the web.

That would be great __{{emoticon}}__

I'll have a look. core does come with elinks-lite. (and new version with irssi)
