Dillo Web browser is a very fast, extremely small Web browser that's written in C and C++. The source is around 600 KB, and the static binary is about 980KB. It is a graphical browser built upon FLTK-1.3, and it renders a good subset of HTML and CSS, excluding frames, JavaScript, and JVM support.

Release Notes: This release adds support for background images, improved image scaling, better linebreaking, improved embedding into other applications, OPTGROUP and INS support, some HTML5 elements, Web searching from the address bar, compilation on Hurd and IRIX, reaping of zombies, security fixes, and minor bugfixes.


Release Notes: This release adds support for the CSS display property, fine-grained control over hyphenation, a domainrc mechanism to replace filter_auto_requests, UI color preferences, a keybinding to view source, a couple of text selection improvements, some form widget work, keyboard navigation improvements, better window titles, and fixes for bugs which cropped up.


Release Notes: This release includes: HTTP digest authentication, more sophisticated handling of line breaks and whitespace, the CSS text-transform property, plus an important fix for users in Turkic locales.


Release Notes: This bugfix release brings improved privacy, never sending or accepting third-party cookies. Also, the UI theme can be changed, keys can be set for paging left/right, and you can disable the dialog that pops up when quitting with multiple tabs/windows open.


Release Notes: Dillo3 has shifted its toolkit library from fltk2 to the fltk 1.3 series. The experimental status of fltk2 had kept Dillo2 out of a number of distributions, but fltk 1.3 has already seen an official release. Dillo3 is the current stable branch. In the porting process, several improvements were made and many bugs fixed. The user interface was rewritten, and the internals simplified. Highlights: native build on OS X, on-the-fly panel resize, multiple search engines, faster rendering, and CSS adjacent sibling selectors.

I second that. Dillo UI development should keep it as much keyboard driven as possible.

Twist My Arm Some More
Because I use dillo as my default graphical browser, I am finding that it is
enforcing its HTML standards on the webs I develop. Between dillo's strict
parsing and that annoying little bug in the corner with its count of my
failures, dillo twists my arm until I say, Uncle, and make the pages that
are perfectly fine in Mozilla parse correctly in dillo too. Is this a love-hate
relationship yet?

keyboard usage
dillo is great for my laptop, because it is kind of a slow machine. But actually dillo would be much better if it had a type-ahead feature like Firefox, so that it could be used better without a mouse or these crude touchpads. :)
