So Midori is going full speed ahead, we support the new libSoup cache now (WebKitGTK+ 1.3.11 or greater required) which supersedes the old extension, support for F6, F7 and Ctrl(+Shift)+Tab and Tab in completion and a faster speed dial, which is still in the middle of even greater improvements, so stay stuned for more goodness in the future.
Private browsing has received a number of improvements such as masking of the timezone, language, architecture and Netscape plugins, disabling of DNS prefetching, disabling all HTML5 storage facilities and stripping referrer details – the last one is also available as a preference in the Privacy options now, and prevents unrelated websites from seeing search strings or sub pages. You can use the –private switch on the command line now to open a window in private browsing mode.
Motivated by user agent changes of Firefox and Chrome, Midori takes the opportunity to omit the language and encryption from the user agent, and prefixes with Mozilla now in an attempt at increasing uniformity of user agents. It resolves typical issues such as Facebook and other websites mistaking Midori for a mobile phone browser or Google hiding interface tweaks (you know, the guys doing their best to ignore their own ideals).

Hey, youre the goto expret. Thanks for hanging out here.
I bow down humbly in the persence of such greatness.
Sounds like a WebKitGTK+ bug you’re encountering, middle click to open tabs is always enabled. I suggest you check https://bugs.launchpad.net/midori and https://bugs.webkit.org for existing bugs. I recall there’s one where middle click opens in the current and a second tab, this might be related but I don’t have the bug number handy.
Nice release! I just updated through the PPA on U 10.04. However, one thing concerns me, middle click no longer opens a link in a new tab for me. I can’t seem to find the setting for this. It’s driving me nuts, I am constantly opening new tabs, and its annoying to have to that extra click. Does anyone know how to change this?
The symptom sounds like this will be fixed in 0.3.6 which will be released in a few hours.
I just updated Midori via the Ubuntu updater. I use Maverick 64 bit. I have used Midori for ages and like it but now when I try to start it all my ram and CPU is instantly used up. I cannot even kill the program and have to reboot the computer. I tried removing Midori and reinstalling but the same problem results. Any suggestions? I like Midori and would like to be able to use it. The speed dial stopped working some time ago but I do not use it anyway.
Yes, you have to right-click the link to save it.
That dialog that would offer to open the file doesn’t work anymore and also we can’t set it to ask for the directory to download.
Maybe the developers are working on this but you may want to add a bug report in the launchpad page (from the ‘report bug’ option in the menu).
Another issue with 0.3.5. There isn’t a buttom for view the last entered URL in the url-box. This buttom used to have a down arrow. I cleared my config files to see it all issues are from a bad configuration, but don’t :-(.
Hello again:
BUG !!
Testing midori 0.3.5 from Sid (Debian)… Now it can’t download any file !!.
For test, go to any debian package download link (e.g.: http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/main/m/midori/midori_0.3.5-1_i386.deb) and them the download/open dialog appears, but don’t show anithing. Do I can’t download anithing… :-/
Many thanks for the great work. Excuse my bad english. Greetings. Martintxo.
I’m too for try back the speed dial switch option to preferences dialoge. I don’t need this thing in my browser too. Make it optional !!, Martintxo.
1. Is it now possible to rearrange the bookmarks?
2. Whould we see “smooth scrolling” in a future release?
3. How does look your plans about GTK3?
Thanks for your good work!
Thanks, I just wanted to try it, but I received the update via the getdeb repository! But I’ll save your advice in case I’ll have problems again in the future!
How to switch off speed dial?
Did I overlook something?
In case not: please please bring back a way to switch off speed dial.
I just don’t want it.
Thank You !
Then whenever you want to update it to the latest code cd to that midori folder and run
sudo ./waf uninstall
./waf clean
git pull
Then configure, build and install it again.
Remove that PPA from your sources, then run
sudo apt-get build-dep midori
then cd to where you have your compiled apps (here I have them in ~/src), run
git clone git://git.xfce.org/apps/midori
cd midori/
./waf configure
./waf build
sudo ./waf install
The win32 update is delayed because the latest test build was unstable, there will be an update following as soon as possible.
I just fixed that crasher in git master.
That’s what the update manager says:
W:Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/webkit-team/ppa/ubuntu/dists/natty/main/source/Sources 404 Not Found
, W:Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/webkit-team/ppa/ubuntu/dists/natty/main/binary-amd64/Packages 404 Not Found
, E:Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
I really don’t know what’s wrong…
What’s wrong with webkit from the repo?
I use Debian sid and the build-deps from the repo to build Midori from source here.
i think there may be a issue with bookmarks when trying to place then deeper then top level on first creation.
Just wanted to say thanks for making a browser as kickbutt as midori. Haven’t quite figured out how to track down all the dependencies I need to try to compile 3.5.
But think you rock …
Hi, I’m using Ubuntu Natty 11.04, I wanted to upgrade to latest version of midori, but I’m facing some problems with webkit ppa, it isn’t able to fetch packages from it, does anyone have the same problem?
Is there a way to alphabetize my bookmarks?
thanks for the tip about location bar.
I am looking for a win32 build of Midori 0.3.5. The link listed points to the 0.3.3 build and not the 0.3.5 one.
Are we going to have a win 32 build available in the future?
Each time i press clear privat data >> ok, 0.3.5 is gone, closes itself , well it isn’t segfault. Same snag I had with 0.3.3.
Well back to 0.3.2 .
BTW how to disable this bloody speed dial ??
For me speed dial looks fine without js. The buttons to edit and remove don’t work but websites open just fine. But I have only 9 websites in there, it might be that it breaks if you have more.
alt+d = ctrl+l (from location) in Midori. I guess you can also re-bind it if it does not clash with some other shortcut
I keep going back and forth between Midori and Chromium. Not sure which one I like better.
I would love to see ALT+d (highlight address bar) supported in Midori. I use that feature a _lot_ and Midori and Epiphany are the only browsers that don’t do it.
I set Midori to identify as Safari. That solves issues with bank and credit card websites refusing Midori as an “unknown user agent”. I wonder if it would help if all the webkit browsers identified simply as “webkit”? Chrome, chromium, safari, midori, epiphany all together have considerable marketshare.
Need a ‘Hide Speeddial’ or even bringing back the config option: speed-dial-in-new-tabs=false
I was told to ‘ignore it’ but hopefully disabling or hiding will comeback for those w/out the need for a speeddial as fancy as it may be. And yes speeddial does not work properly with images & js disabled, hence the need to disable/hide speeddial altogether.
All of that being said: The new 3.4/3.5 release is looking good and midori is stable for those who may have used it around the time of the ‘1001 bug’ fix release give it a go and you will see for yourselves.
Thanks Midori Team!
When I open new panel (JavaScript off), I get a cripled Speed dial. In 0.3.3, when JS was off, I got blank screen. Now (with 5×3) I get Speed dial that has 3 thumbnails on a row, then 2 on a row, again 3, 2, 3, 2. Is there a way to fix this and use even without JS, or at least to get a blank screen again?
The link downloads the .3.5 sources here. It appears to be fixed.
Still see the old links. Double checked and cleared browser cache just to be sure. Can you please look into this.
My apologies, links corrected now.
Agree..we still get 0.3.3 build not a 0.3.5 build.
Link leads to 0.3.3 instead of 0.3.5
