[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] varavut:

Very cool, it's very similar to IE10 for Metro Style, although it performs not as fast as IE9mobile. Can you improve the rendering performance any further? or have you reach the limitation of managed code?

Anyway, I have a couple suggestions I would like to see in future update

1. Can you get rid of the favicon and put the refresh button there instead? I see no reason for the favicon beside asthetic, it would be better if you move the refresh button there to make room for another button on the appbar.

Second, can you change the add favorite button to go to the favorite screen instead ? The favorite screen would be used more than adding favorite, so it would be logical to have the favorite button instead and move the add favorite to the drawer menu.

2. Have you use cloudfox? You can check the opensource here: http://cloudfox.codeplex.com/

Now I am wonder if you could integrate that app into vable browser and it would be super sweet to have firefox bookmark in vable browser!

If you get around to integrate it, put a button on the appbar to open up firefox bookmark.

3. Is it posible to make a built-in adblock mechanism that can be subscribe to abp's easylist?

That's all my suggestion, oh can why did you publish your app under yalla?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] thesecondsfade:
Looks cool. It needs the option to have websites see it as a desktop browser.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] xDomsx:
Looks nice... but I have this strange feeling that MS will limit full potential of this kind of apps so you wouldn't use it instead IE. I remember one great browser on NoDo that couldn't show desktop version just because MS didn't allow such things. And so I doubt that any dev could implement adblocker in this program.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] varavut:
Thanks for suggestions

1. OK thanks.

2. I will try to use cloudfox:)

3. Very nice Idea I will study about adblock mechanism and try to do it.

I publish myy app under yallaappa because my country is not supported by App Hub.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] varavut:
Thanks

desktop mode is not appear as function in WebBrowser control but I will find the way to do it.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] varavut:
Thanks.

Yes there are many limitation of WebBrowser control.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] byobge:
Very nice work - this is the first alternative to the stock IE9 browser that's made me think, "Hmmm, maybe...." :-)

Things I Like:

Disappearing address bar and toolbar - I need to get used to flicking down from the top, but that won't be that hard, and the recovered screen real estate is worth it;

Tabs implemented well - I especially like the fact that, unlike with IE9/Mango, each tab doesn't consume a "slot" in the task switcher - rather, the browser as a whole consumes one slot. (And YES, tab control right on the toolbar again :-))

I was a little perturbed at first that I couldn't switch out of Mobile view, but on the other hand I really like the way Mobile-aware pages look, so maybe I don't want to now.

A few small nits:

Find on Page would be nice :-)

I think (but you're the designer, and it's a design decision) that the tabs should "wrap" when I'm left- or right-flicking my way through them; that way, I don't have to remember the order I launched them in.

Some links didn't work for me - in a few minutes of browsing, I stumbled onto a couple of links that work fine on the desktop and Mangoe/IE9, but I couldn't follow them in Vable - for an example, go to this site: http://www.salon.com/2011/10/25/what_makes_a_great_looking_jetliner/ and click the "Comments" link at the end of an article.

This is good stuff. I like this.

Thanks,

bob
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] dkp1977:
Very nice work so far. But I prefer using the desktop view, which currently doesn't seem to be supported by vable browser. :( Should you ever decide to implement it, let me know and you'll have an immediate buyer. ;)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] varavut:
Thank you very much

that the tabs should "wrap" when left- or right-flicking - Good idea I think I will add an option for do it .

Some links didn't work for me - I'm sorry I can not comment on web http://www.salon.com/2011/10/25/what_makes_a_great_looking_jetliner/ with IE 9 by use Facebook or Google ID because it will stuck at page after login as same as in vable browser. Could you give me another site that has this problem?

Thanks
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] varavut:
Thanks.

Currently I'm not found a way to change to desktop view. If I can do I will tell you again.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] dkp1977:
IE9 Mobile's user agent is:

Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows Phone OS 7.0; Trident/3.1; IEMobile/7.0; <DeviceManufacturer>;<DeviceModel>)

This should be bound to the "mobile option". "Desktop option" should then equal the user agent of a desktop browser. This is the one from IE9:

Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; MSIE 9.0; Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; Trident/5.0)

As far as I remember you can set the user agent of your browser any way you want. Just like this:

var uri = new Uri ("http://some.where");

var request = WebRequestCreator.ClientHttp.Create (uri) as HttpWebRequest;

request.Headers ["user-agent"] = "My user agent string";

request.BeginGetResponse (...);

So by choosing either mobile or desktop version a string with the appropriate user agent string is passed to request.Headers["user-agent"].. If that works, not sure though. :)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] varavut:
Thanks.

Yes it work but when you use HttpWebRequest instread WebBrowser Control to navigate some website css will broke :(

I will try again. Thank you very much.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] varavut:
Good news, I can change User agent for change to desktop mode. I will add desktop mode option and publish XAP file in this thread as fast as possible.:)

Thank dkp1977 again:)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] dkp1977:
In webBrowser it would look like this:

webBrowser.Navigate("http://www.whatever.com", null, null, "User-Agent: put custom user-agent string here");

// Edit

You were faster than me. :D Great you managed to do it. So I'll keep my promise and buy the app as soon as the update is available. :)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] varavut:
Thanks.

I submit via yallaapps and the process is very slow I will upload XAP to this thread before sent to yallaapps.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] varavut:
I very confuse.

When I want to add this site to favorites I will Tap "add to favorites" icon

if I want to change mode to desktop I will show the "desktop" icon or "mobile" icon

if I show the desktop when user is in mobile view they will confuse or not?

Thank you very much.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] varavut:
Already upload v 1.6 in post #1:)

*no cloud fox (or Firefox sync) integration in this version because I want to change the architecture to MVVM before.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] varavut:
v 1.6 Bug report

when a user clicks a link it will go back to the mobile webpage

Thank Marvin_S
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] dkp1977:
Should be quite easy to fix. All you need to do is pass the user agent with every new URI like described above. The agent is passed through the variable set in the options. At least I think that it should work this way. :)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] varavut:
When user tap a link it bot pass to Navigate Method, so I can't add headers.

Thanks
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] varavut:
Could you please give me some link of websites that must be use desktop mode I will try it.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] Ttblondey:

Update 1.7

v1.7

- fix some problem of desktop view but still has post data problem

- add swipe to show all tabs in option (will instead swipe to change tab)

- fix refresh problem
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] nikerossxp:
nice gesture-enabled browser! bought it.

but

open more and more tabs, by clicking on links on the same site. fix, pls.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] varavut:
Thanks.

Please explain you problem.

if you tap an link in page it will not open new tab except you hold on a link and select open in new tab.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] Marvin_S:
Can you share how you detect this?

Also we are working on a way to keep the user agent. I think we managed to get it to work, ill get back to you after we did some extensive testing. Btw your browser and ours is very similar... :)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] varavut:
I download the website response header by send the HttpWebRequest

HttpWebRequest request = (HttpWebRequest)HttpWebRequest.Create(e.Uri);
request.Method = "HEAD";
request.BeginGetResponse(new AsyncCallback(GetResponseCallback), request);

check the ContentType

private void GetResponseCallback(IAsyncResult asynchronousResult)
{
try
{
var request = (HttpWebRequest)asynchronousResult.AsyncState;
var response = (HttpWebResponse)request.EndGetResponse(asynchronousResult);

var a =response.Headers[HttpRequestHeader.ContentType];
var type = a.ToString();
Debug.WriteLine(type);
if ((!a.Contains("text") && !a.Contains("html")) && currentNavigatingEventArgs.Uri == request.RequestUri)
{
var webBrowserTask = new WebBrowserTask();
webBrowserTask.Uri = request.RequestUri;
Dispatcher.BeginInvoke(() => webBrowserTask.Show());
RefreshBrowser();//kill the navigation
}
}
catch (Exception e)
{

}
}

You can keep the user agent when user tap link?Could you please share it?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] Marvin_S:
Relly hacky atm:

Navigating()
{
If (noHeader = true)
{
e.Cancel = true;
Webbrowser.Navigate(e.Uri, null, Headers);
noHeader = false;
}
}

Navigated()
{
noHeader = true;
}

It does not work superb but it kind of works. I wonder if we can intercept a tap on the webbrowser element and than detect wheter you are tapping on a link? Abort the navigation and copy the header and continue the navigation.

Also my navigation does not seem to work if I dont add www is there any wa yto solve this?

Thanks ill let you know if Ive found a better way to solve the user agent problem.

Regards
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] varavut:
Thanks.

This code seem work great but I worry about post data. Will it parse to new navigate()?

I'm sorry, Could you please explain this sentence?

sorry for my language is not good.

Thanks.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] Marvin_S:
I think postdata will work, not 100% sure, but i believe it does.

Uhm well you have implemented tap and hol to bring the popup menu on a link. Can you not bind the tap and detect if you are on a link? If so, you cancel the navigation action and navigate to this link with the headers :)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] varavut:
OK Thanks I will try it again.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] byobge:
Forgot to mention another thing I like a lot - the ability to set a Home page (or pages). That's sorely missing in the stock Mango browser. (I like it because it makes it absolutely clear when you're starting a new browser session, and when you're restoring an old one. Mango makes both situations look exactly the same, but behave differently :-()

You should be able to get to articles on the top level of Salon.com without logging in (forgot I'm a member there) - just go to the front page (Salon.com), click on an article title, then click on the Comments link at the end of the article - it wasn't one particluar article that didn't work for me, it was ALL of them.

Thanks again for putting this out there - I'm looking forward to seeing where it goes.

I like your apps !!!! Very good Internet Browser with lot of settings (search provider, page at home, open with Internet Explorer, etc...)

I have change my tile "Internet Explorer" with Vable Browser and i have rename tile to "Internet Explorer" and replace IconTile & SplashScreen for my usage.

... so more native app :p lol

​

Best Thankx for you !!!!
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] stan2:
@varavut, have you made any process regarding render/scrolling speed? I also use surfcube 3d browser. Its also base on ie9 engine and its render/scroll almost as fast as ie9 itself. So it's possible to improve rendering performance.

As for cloudfox, are you using its UI? I think you should improve the UI because cloudfox itself is not very convenience.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] varavut:
@poloche Wow!! Could you please tell me How to edit title and Splash screen? Thanks

@stan2 Thanks. I will try to rewrite my app as MVVM I think the speed will beimprove.

about cloudfox I agree with you about UI and the Firefox sync authentication is hard.

[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] Existentialism:
Does this have fast app switching? I'd rather not bother with it if it's not Mango ready.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] varavut:
about new site of touch.facebook.com it create on HTML5 but IE9 on mango doesn't support some API of HTML5. I think that there is no way to view it because developer cannot edit anything of web browser.

Thanks.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] varavut:
Yes, I implement it but I don't know how it work when I press windows button and open some app then I press back to my program I can continue on the website that I opened. If I misunderstand please explain it for me and could you please try vable browser about fast app switching?

[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] xflier:
it looks like 1.92 mobile/desktop views switch doesn't work any more.

it is a very good browser. It is very promising. just some suggestions:

1. after navigated to a page, and press back button and try to go back to previous page. It started loading the page all over again, and position is at beginning of the page, not the original position navigated away. IE does go back to right position.

2. when typing in address bar, there is no suggestion, could we make suggestions based on history?

3. there is no stop button. forward button on right of address bar, and refresh button in menu, not sure why we need both, IE has refresh/stop button switch, which makes more sense. Also, keyboard has forward button already.

4. Zoom needs some enhancement. It is not as smooth as IE, and there are some funny colors while zooming, try Pocketnow, and zoom several times.

5. a way to clean history

6. instead of swipe to bring up top tar and bottom bar, can we have the transparent 3 dots at right bottom corner to bring them up?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] varavut:
thank for your suggestions.

for 2. and 5.

2. Yes it based on history sites. Do you want a site suggestion?

5. you can clear history and cookie from setting menu.

I will improve it :) when I can solve some problem of new Vable Browser architecture.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] xflier:
you are right, clean history is in settings, I missed it.

Thanks for your quick reply. It encouraged me to throw out one thing I wanted most.

can we cache the page when navigate to another, because most like I would come back to that page. for example, when I read a novel, and looked at chapter list, and choose chapter 1 to read, after I finished it, I press back and try to go back to chapter list and choose again, right now, it will reload the page and needs some time. I wish I could go back in a blink.

Actually a lot of cases like that, for example, reading news from Pocketnow, WPCentral, and etc. they have a list first, and people read and go back, and choose again.

if we have this feature, I would buy it, and throw the IE away :)
