What Is Konqueror the Problem Solution
http://www.linuxhowtos.org/Network/fastkonqueror.pdf What is Konqueror Konqueror is the default browser/file manager for KDE. As time of this writing this is one of only 4 browsers who correctly display the acid2 test (http://www.webstandards.org/act/acid2/) correctly. The Problem One problem of this browser is the lack of an internal dns cache, that means for every http request (each image on a web page) it sends a dns query. Depending on your internet connection and speed of your dns servers, this can slow things down. Solution pdnsd pdnsd is a tiny dns proxy. pdnsd should be available on most distributions. Just install the tool via apt-get, rpm, emerge or whatever your distribution uses. configuring you can use the default example configuration and modify the cache size and dns server ip. My config reads this: global { perm_cache=2048; # cachesize in kB. cache_dir="/var/cache/pdnsd"; run_as="pdnsd"; server_ip = 127.0.0.1; status_ctl = on; paranoid=on; min_ttl=900; # store cache at least 15 minutes. max_ttl=604800; # store cache maximum one week. timeout=10; } server { label= "myisp"; ip = 192.168.0.1; # enter IP of your dns server proxy_only=on; timeout=4; uptest=if; interface=eth0; interval=600; purge_cache=off; } modify /etc/resolv domain yourdomain server 127.0.0.1 start the dns proxy /etc/init.d/pdnsd start page 1 of 2 http://www.linuxhowtos.org/Network/fastkonqueror.pdf check if the server works by pinging a server ping www.linuxhowtos.org if everything works, add the pdnsd to the started services and you are done.

05_096970 ch01.qxp 4/20/07 11:27 PM Page 3 1 Introducing Cascading Style Sheets Cascading style sheets is a language intended to simplify website design and development. Put simply, CSS handles the look and feel of a web page. With CSS, you can control the color of text, the style of fonts, the spacing between paragraphs, how columns are sized and laid out, what back- ground images or colors are used, as well as a variety of other visual effects. CSS was created in language that is easy to learn and understand, but it provides powerful control over the presentation of a document. Most commonly, CSS is combined with the markup languages HTML or XHTML. These markup languages contain the actual text you see in a web page — the hyperlinks, paragraphs, headings, lists, and tables — and are the glue of a web docu- ment. They contain the web page’s data, as well as the CSS document that contains information about what the web page should look like, and JavaScript, which is another language that pro- vides dynamic and interactive functionality. HTML and XHTML are very similar languages. In fact, for the majority of documents today, they are pretty much identical, although XHTML has some strict requirements about the type of syntax used. I discuss the differences between these two languages in detail in Chapter 2, and I also pro- vide a few simple examples of what each language looks like and how CSS comes together with the language to create a web page. In this chapter, however, I discuss the following: ❑ The W3C, an organization that plans and makes recommendations for how the web should functionCOPYRIGHTED and evolve MATERIAL ❑ How Internet documents work, where they come from, and how the browser displays them ❑ An abridged history of the Internet ❑ Why CSS was a desperately needed solution ❑ The advantages of using CSS 05_096970 ch01.qxp 4/20/07 11:27 PM Page 4 Part I: The Basics The next section takes a look at the independent organization that makes recommendations about how CSS, as well as a variety of other web-specific languages, should be used and implemented.

Web Browsers
WEB BROWSERS Page 1 INTRODUCTION • A Web browser acts as an interface between the user and Web server • Software application that resides on a computer and is used to locate and display Web pages. • Web user access information from web servers, through a client program called browser. • A web browser is a software application for retrieving, presenting, and traversing information resources on the World Wide Web Page 2 FEATURES • All major web browsers allow the user to open multiple information resources at the same time, either in different browser windows or in different tabs of the same window • A refresh and stop buttons for refreshing and stopping the loading of current documents • Home button that gets you to your home page • Major browsers also include pop-up blockers to prevent unwanted windows from "popping up" without the user's consent Page 3 COMPONENTS OF WEB BROWSER 1. User Interface • this includes the address bar, back/forward button , bookmarking menu etc 1. Rendering Engine • Rendering, that is display of the requested contents on the browser screen. • By default the rendering engine can display HTML and XML documents and images Page 4 HISTROY • The history of the Web browser dates back in to the late 1980s, when a variety of technologies laid the foundation for the first Web browser, WorldWideWeb, by Tim Berners-Lee in 1991. • Microsoft responded with its browser Internet Explorer in 1995 initiating the industry's first browser war • Opera first appeared in 1996; although it have only 2% browser usage share as of April 2010, it has a substantial share of the fast-growing mobile phone Web browser market, being preinstalled on over 40 million phones.

Why Websites Can Change Without Warning
Why Websites Can Change Without Warning WHY WOULD MY WEBSITE LOOK DIFFERENT WITHOUT NOTICE? HISTORY: Your website is a series of files & databases. Websites used to be “static” because there were only a few ways to view them. Now we have a complex system, and telling your webmaster what device, operating system and browser is crucial, here’s why: TERMINOLOGY: You have a desktop or mobile “device”. Desktop computers and mobile devices have “operating systems” which are software. To see your website, you’ll pull up a “browser” which is also software, to surf the Internet. Your website is a series of files that needs to be 100% compatible with all devices, operating systems and browsers. Your website is built on WordPress and gets a weekly check up (sometimes more often) to see if any changes have occured. Your site could also be attacked with bad files, links, spam, comments and other annoying internet pests! Or other components will suddenly need updating which is nothing out of the ordinary. WHAT DOES IT LOOK LIKE IF SOMETHING HAS CHANGED? Any update to the following can make your website look differently: There are 85 operating systems (OS) that can update (without warning). And any of the most popular roughly 7 browsers also update regularly which can affect your site visually and other ways. (Lists below) Now, with an OS or browser update, your site’s 18 website components likely will need updating too. Once website updates are implemented, there are currently about 21 mobile devices, and 141 desktop devices that need to be viewed for compatibility.

The company doesn’t zero in on a browser based on the number of features that it has compared to the competition but rather the quality and stability of its releases. This makes sense, as both Firefox and Chromium have almost identical support for open internet standards such as HTML 5, CSS 3, ECMAScript 5 and DOM 3 etc. Starting with Chromium 28, the browser now uses the Blink engine instead One difference between the two is of the popular WebKit engine, while Firefox continues to use the Gecko engine. that while both browsers support the NPAPI plugin, only Chromium supports Could it be because of Chromium’s Then there’s Chromium’s address the PPAPI plugin.

Chapterbackground PROPERTIES
ChapterBACKGROUND PROPERTIES Topics in This Chapter • background-color • background-image • background-repeat • background-attachment • background-position • background • background-position-x • background-position-y • background-clip • background-origin • background-size • background-quantity • background-spacing 14 Chapter The background family of properties enables Web authors to tile background images with precision. Prior to the advent of the CSS3 specification, various color-related properties used to be part of the same family as the background properties, but as both have been expanded and grown more specialized, they have now been sepa- rated into families of properties. 14.1 background-color Property The background-color property sets the background color of an HTML element, and for the most part functions in exactly the same way as the bgcolor attribute asso- ciated with the body element under the HTML 4.0 specification. What makes this property so versatile is that it can be added to virtually any Web element. It can take on any type of CSS color value, ranging from standard name val- ues (such as “green” and “aqua”) to standard hexadecimals (“#ff0000”, which equals red) to rgb color values — in short, any type of color value that the color property can take (see Chapter 13, “Color”). It can also take on a transparent value, which is designed to let the immediate “parent” color show through. It can also take on an inherit value, which adopts whatever parent value may be available. The code 387 388 Chapter 14 ■ Background Properties depicted in Listing 14.1 shows some examples of how it can be added to many differ- ent Web page elements, and is shown in Figure 14–1.
