|
|---|
| 71 | mozilla now supports both gtk 1.2 and gtk 2.0. To enable gtk2 support, use
|
|---|
| 72 | this option. People have however had problems getting a usable gtk2
|
|---|
| 73 | built even with this and patches. There is also support for other toolkits
|
|---|
| 74 | available but this support is known to be unstable. If you want to try one,
|
|---|
| 75 | we suggest doing a normal build first and then only trying the other
|
|---|
| 76 | toolkits when you know you can get a standard build to work.</para>

|

| 78 | <para>According to the financial institutions, the following hack makes your
|
|---|
| 79 | browser insecure. You have been warned. Many sites use an MS-IE specific tag
|
|---|
| 80 | (autocomplete=off) to prevent autocomplete from working in some forms. This
|
|---|
| 81 | tag is now supported in mozilla to appease the financial institutions. As per
|
|---|
| 82 | the requirements of the financial institutions, they will not even accept a
|
|---|
| 83 | solution where this a preference option. However our opinion is that it should
|
|---|
| 84 | be in the hands of the user. To enable autocomplete to bypass
|
|---|
| 85 | this restriction, we need to make a slight modification in the code.</para>
|
|---|
| 86 |
|
|---|
| 87 | <para>Open the file <filename>extensions/wallet/src/wallet.cpp</filename> in
|
|---|
| 88 | the mozilla source tree and search for the line:
|
|---|
| 89 | <screen>#define WALLET_DONT_CACHE_ALL_PASSWORDS</screen>
|
|---|
| 90 | Then delete or comment out the line. If anyone tells you MS-IE is user
|
|---|
| 91 | friendly, give them this example! Note that unlike the patch referred to in
|
|---|
| 92 | the hint, the patch on the BLFS website does not contain this hack so you
|
|---|
| 93 | will need to enable it manually if you want it use it.</para>
