If `kiwix-serve` is run with the `--nosearchbar` option the toolbar is
disabled (hidden) in its viewer.
Note however that certain actions performed by the viewer merely with
the purpose of keeping the toolbar up-to-date are still carried out.
Auto hiding of the toolbars on narrow screens works only for the first
page loaded in the viewer. Navigating to other pages interferes with
autohiding as follows:
- If the toolbar was hidden, it stays hidden.
- If the toolbar was not hidden, it loses the ability to autohide.
Made the viewer respect the `--blockexternal` and `--nolibrarybutton`
options of `kiwix-serve`. Those options are passed to the viewer
via the dynamically generated resource `/viewer_settings.js`.
The greenish taskbar placeholder is gone. The appearance of the old taskbar
is restored. However the taskbar currently contains only the library
button (but the latter leads to the currently blank welcome page).
Before this fix, browsing history didn't work at all. Now it mostly
works but there are still some quirks that must be debugged further.
Since session history handling turns out to be a rather complex topic
(see https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/history.html) the work in
that direction will be postponed until other features reach a comparable
level of readiness.
