Awesomium = nice name.... Chromium = Webkit Webkit = Safari Safari = total steaming pile of crap.
Instead of developing a browser for the tiny percent of people that run eve full-screen.
Just add a shell extension to make eve links work in other browsers.
Problem: fixed.
You've identified the wrong problem. You've chased the wrong solution.

A shell extension might be considered "Intrusive". Also, I am sure CCP wants to remain in the business of providing a game, not the business of building and maintaining OS enhancements.
If you want it so bad, why don't you write the shell extension? Everyone else that's developed an out of game enhancement has. Why are you so special that someone has to do it for you?
I for one run full screen whenever possible. In my humble opinion, the IGB adds to the immersion.

The problem with flash is it is much harder to control. HTML, javascript, etc. is easy to just exclude chunks of code from loading to prevent attacks, exploits, etc. however with flash you can't just do that. Perhaps CCP could implement flash and do it on a whitelist basis, just allowing youtube eveo.com, and some of the other official eve related sites. I for one am glad that CCP is putting security first.

QFT.
I run eve in window mode (fullscreen resolution) and looking forward to use the igb in future .)
The problem with flash is that it is not secure by design. - Millions of users use old flash plugins that have security flaws. - Websites can create flash-cookies that don't respect the browsers cookie policies. - Those cookies are even browser indipendant stored... so if the igb allows flash, websites can identify you if you use an other browser to visit that page.

Edited by: Lumy on 17/09/2009 19:01:13 New IGB 1. is awesome 2. desperately needs search function (please no popup, FX style is preferable)
Also, screw you, small people. Just because you think IGB is useless doesn't mean no one needs it. Thanks god CCP can see beyond length of their own nose.

This browser is absolutely amazing. Now only if I could get my IMs in-game I'd play full-screen. Great job!

Thanks for the (old and new) browser! I have some great ideas for how to utilize this tool.
I have a question. Why is so little information transmitted?
Basically: trust status, what server, character name/id, corp name/id (and alliance), system, station, and corp role. A rather large amount of this information is useless for security measures since it can be edited by any browser. System and station are pretty useful, but why is this it? Why was nearest location removed (was it even in the old browser?) and other info not added? The ship you are currently in could be useful for many things.
If the reason is that you don't want users to get scammed using the headers, I don't think that is enough of a reason. Include a warning or something. Natural selection will take care of the people who ignore it.

Just been playing around with it - awesome, thanks a lot!
Would it be possible to restore the functionality where drag&drop of a character into a textarea/textinput would enter the HTML link to it? :-)

Would also be good to get similar functionality with drag+dropped items.

I don't want new features to be honest. I just want faster load times for pages that already exist. Right now it's almost unusable.

For every person who wants to browse out of game there will be one who wants to do it ingame. Those who dont want to immerse themselves in fullscreen goodness are missing out i think, given a choice of shrinking EVE or the browser, i know which one i choose.
Infact i cant believe that it hasnt been mentioned yet but i've been browsing in EVE and every other game i play for a long time now, full flash support, tabs, java support, transparency support, the lot. I use PlayXpert (http://www.playxpert.com/web/guest/home) and any similar functionality making its way to EVE is most welcome from me as it (unlike some may think) actually keeps me fullscreen and ingame alot more than not.
For example, sometimes i fire up a football match from justintv or any site streaming sport, resize the browser so it fits just round the player, move it to the corner of the screen and continue playing EVE fullscreen while never missing a goal. Priceless. Sometimes i leave videos of boobs playing too
CCP, flash support is a must.

How easy would it be to expose properties of the active client as a javascript object in the browser? Just wondering as I'm doing a lot of GWT based development these days and it would give us a way to write extensions to the UI running entirely in the browser. Fleet coordination for example, given an object in each client's browser containing location and ship information I could easily knock up a fleet management UI which would summarize the location and ship type of everyone in your fleet and .... well, you get the idea. Not sure how easy that would be to do using just the header information, I guess I could write a server that consumed that information and set the client side JS object appropriately but that seems overkill when the information is already there in the client to begin with.

Some earier posts in this dev blog thread mentioned concern about cookies, javascript and plugins. This post is my attempt to add to these voices. This is a critical issue and CCP needs to lose sleep thinking about it.
I also operate all browsers in 'whitelist' mode. This means Javascript does NOT run without explicit permission. Plug-ins do NOT run without permission. Cookies are purged frequently, meaning many times every day, often multiple times during a session between sites. This always includes Flash cookies. I don't get tracked with cookies and I don't get owned by drive-by javascript et al. exploits.
I'm not unreasonable about this; if I can tailor the IGB to this level of paranoia it doesn't necessary mean I won't use it. However, certain minimum features must exist;
- A "clear everything" button. Everything means everything; history, cookies, cache, passwords, download history, search box history, form history. Everything.
- A means to explicitly control the installation and removal of and control the activation of third party plugins. I can't use a browser that allows Flash to do whatever some server tells it to.
With these things as a minimum I can imagine using the IGB for EVE related (only) browsing.

The new browser is fast, yes, but incredible buggy. Lots of flicker, strange behavior and even crashing. Tested with the latest build (101786), just try to surf any major portal like cnn.com...

Maybe try not surfing to a major portal with tons of local scripts running? At least not till they get comfortable with the ingame browser's security capabilities and allow it to run third party code. CNN has a lot of javascript that checks for info on your computer, which is something that I believe CCP are trying to block at this point.

It would be nice if we could setup levels of Trust with a web site through the application. Allowing the application to request a level of trust that would grant access to Limited or Full API keys, and allowing that Key to come into the header like other charecter information on a trusted site.
this way web applications could make use of API data to enrich the funcationality and wouldn't need to bother the user logging in and retrieving their API key -We So SeXy |

another Idea, Widgets!!! allow multiple instances of the browser to be spawned from bookmarks in a lightweight window, only minimal controls for resizing, moving, closing.

http://wiki.eveonline.com/wiki/IGB_Javascript_Methods
need more of these....
RequestPayment(charectername/ID, amount) Opens a send payment windows populated with charecter and isk amount
SetDestination(systemID) sets the current destination, clearing any waypoints AddWaypoint(systemID) adds a waypoint
MailTo(charectername/ID/mailgroupname?, subject, body) Opens a new mail window populated with destination, subject, and body
ShowContract(contractID) shows a contract, could be used in concert with a contracts API to market items in game through website.
ShowMarketItem(ItemType) shows the market details page for the given item
ShowFitting(serializedFittingData) this is a stretch, but some what to allow a website to share fitting information, even to allow a user to save that fitting if they choose.
ShowInfo(ItemType, Item) hoping this will still lallow us to show info on charecters, ext, and that adding folks to buddies, sending mail, sending money, ext... may be done through a link like this.
