Next to come warc2zim archive will come with "wombat" embedded.
The purpose of wombat is to be an interface with js code to mask that
we are in a scrapped/zim context to the js.
So it rewrite the `.href` attributes to the original url (ie, an
absolute url to the original website), even if the local relative url
is valid.
Let's ask to wombat to not rewrite href in our special case.
On media (screens) narrower than 420 pixels, the toolbar buttons
are hidden. Before this change, when made visible they were laid out
in two rows. This change places them in a single row and provides
some vertical spacing from the search-box.
Attempts to use the same color for buttons yielded poor results: viewer
toolbar buttons don't look nice on the dark background used for the
filter controls on the library page, whereas the light background of the
viewer toolbar buttons doesn't play well with the filters on the library
page which seem to be designed around the contrast effect.
There was a slight difference (between index.css and taskbar.css) in the
margin values of the UI language selector button, however the values
taken from taskbar.css don't seem to have any visible impact on the
welcome/library page (controlled by index.css).
Moved from index.css into kiwix.css some CSS with global effect thus
making it apply to the viewer too.
Extra font-size directives in taskbar.css are needed to undo the effect
of 'font-size: 62.5%' now applied to the 'html' element type.
The new file kiwix.css is intended to host the intersection of index.css
and taskbar.css. In this commit only font definitions have been moved
into it.
Missing parameters are added to the magnet link for it to work properly
given it is mainly based on webseeds.
Each mirror serving the file is added as a webseed.
Params that requires URIEncoding are now encoded.
Introduces `makeURLSearchString()` to turn SearchParams into a string but only
URIEncoding some specific params.
This fix contains a small hack - in order to detect the default language
from browser language preference during the first visit, the library
page has to load /viewer_settings.js which contains that information.
After upgrading my OS to Ubuntu 22.04 the language selector button
didn't show up in the viewer taskbar. Investigation shows that the id
used in the CSS was applied to the wrong HTML element (the enclosing
<a> rather than <img>).
Before this fix suggestion links were built out of fully URI-encoded
book name and article path components despite the fact that this measure
was taken against only a few dangerous symbols such as '#', '?', '"' and
'\'. However, URI-encoding the slash symbols in the path has some
undesirable side-effects (see #958).
Henceforth only the problematic symbols are encoded in the article path
component. The book name is still fully URI-encoded since I don't see
any counter-arguments.
This is a quickfix for the problem observed with external link blocking
during certain history navigation actions (when the cached iframe content is
loaded/restored before the viewer setup is completed).
Since external link blocking doesn't depend on the translations (that
are asynchronously loaded during the viewer setup) it can be performed
unconditionally. However, the current dependence of `on_content_load()`
on viewer setup has to be addressed too.
Before this fix clicking an external link in the viewer iframe had no
effect (other than an error being reported in the browser dev tools
console) because the attempt to navigate the top browser context was
suppressed due to sandboxing - the click handling code changed the
target of the link but navigating to that target was blocked. Now the
click handler works as follows:
1. Changes the target of the link to the catch page only if the
link is going to be opened in a new tab or window (in this case
sandboxing restrictions do not apply).
2. Otherwise directly navigates the viewer window to external URL
or the catch page.
An unhandled scenario is opening an external link in a new tab/window
via a middle click or context menu - such events cannot be intercepted
and therefore there is no way of blocking external links accessed in
the said way.
In firefox, when PDF content is displayed in the viewer, changing the
viewer URL in the address bar had no effect. The most prominent
manifestation of this bug was the broken book home button but the same
issue was present even if the fragment component of the viewer URL was
edited manually. The bug was a result of
1. an optimization preventing any actions if the new content URL is the
same as the old content URL (this was needed to break the infinite loop
of mutual updates of the top-window and content window/iframe URLs when
any one of them changes).
2. sandboxing of the iframe and inability to access the content URL in
iframe because of cross-origin restrictions when the content is a PDF
displayed by the builtin viewer.
Now that issue is fixed. A slight remaining defect is that the
addressbar URL is still not updated when a PDF file is loaded/displayed
in the viewer.
The previous "fix" (merged PR #924) was buggy. It not only didn't work
in Chromium v90, but in more recent versions too.
I verified that this fix works in Firefox (v111) and Chromium (v90):
- Attempts by the ZIM content to break out of the viewer iframe are
blocked.
- PDFs are displayed in the viewer.
Added a <noscript> elements which hides everything on the welcome page if javascript is not enabled.
It displays a text to tell the user to navigate to /nojs endpoint
