Package: w3m Version: 0.5.1-5 Severity: normal On the Linux VGA 80x25 textmode console (no graphical framebuffer), some texts are invisble, if w3m is configured with a white background (and at least a black foreground) color.
Details: * Start "w3m -config /dev/null http://www.debian.org/"; (just as example) * Open a new tab with 'T'; by default, it clones the original tab. Both tabs should have the title of the web page as label, namely "Debian - The Universal Operating System". Both titles are displayed lightgray on black (default colors of the Linux console), with the label of the active tab surrounded by a pair of white "[]". * Press 'o' to enter the options screen, and set "Color of normal character" from "terminal" to "black", as well as "Color of background" from "terminal" to "white". Then hit the [OK] button. * Now the Debian web page is displayed black on lightgray. But alas, this has rendered the label on the active tab invisible; the active tab is indicated by a darkgray pair of "[]", but has no label on it -- or perhaps a label colored lightgray on lightgray. * Move the cursor to the News section. As soon as the cursor is over "Latest News" or one of the following news headlines (all in brightblue), the appropriate text is invisible, save the character under the cursor. This happens only on the standard Linux white-on-black console. In an xterm, everything works fine; the active tab label is darkgray on lightgray, and the news links don't change colors, but become underlined when the cursor is over them. I'd suggest two more options for the tab labels: - Color of the active tab - Color of inactive tabs where both colors should be used for both tab *label* and the brackets around them -- the current behavior sets only the color of the brackets, which makes the active tab hard to see in the tab bar. For the invisible links I don't know a solution, they become invisible with the cursor over them, although "Enable coloring of active link" is disabled. Maybe w3m interprets CSS? Sidenote: I just notice that "Enable coloring of active link" doesn't have any effect at all, I'll file a separate bug report for that. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.16-2-686 Locale: LANG=en_US, [EMAIL PROTECTED] (charmap=ISO-8859-15) Versions of packages w3m depends on: ii libc6 2.3.6-15 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libgc1c2 1:6.7-2 conservative garbage collector for ii libgpmg1 1.19.6-22 General Purpose Mouse - shared lib ii libncurses5 5.5-2 Shared libraries for terminal hand ii libssl0.9.8 0.9.8b-2 SSL shared libraries ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3-13 compression library - runtime Versions of packages w3m recommends: ii ca-certificates 20050804 Common CA Certificates PEM files -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
