OK

I always use hexa codes, here's my setting:


<BODY TEXT="#F0F0F0" BGCOLOR="#000000" LINK="#7070FF" VLINK="#008000" ALINK="#FFFF00" STYLE="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">


Dillo/win32 displays text color OK.

Mozilla/Seamonkey downloaded same file at ~900kB/s under WinXP but I should rather compare under DOS with Arachne to see if the slowdown is not caused by realtek driver...

If I don't set TEMP in Dillo directory it will not load my settings from
F:\DILLO\CONFIG\DILLORC

Here's my Dillo.bat

@echo off
REM set path to Dillo base directory
set DILLO=F:\DILLO
rem set screen resolution to 1600x1200 16 bit
set NANOSCR=1600 1200 565

REM You shouldn't need to edit below this line.
set WATTCP.CFG=%DILLO%\ETC
set ETC=%DILLO%\ETC
set HOME=%DILLO%

rem set dillo as the current directory
set TEMP=%DILLO%
%DILLO%\bin\redir.exe -o %DILLO%\debug.txt -eo -t -x %DILLO%\bin\dillo.exe %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9
REM %DILLO%\bin\vcls.exe
del *.tmp
set TEMP=H:\TEMP


> Well, it seems to have worked :-)

Yes it didn't crashed yet even when I loaded my photogalery with many tens of images :)
Keep up good work
