Koos Vriezen <quote who="Koos Vriezen"> started hacking on khtml out of
frustration.

He was developing a web application for a client and found that it didn't run on

any browser
available for Linux.

Since then, he has sent several patches to fix bugs and improve speed. He has
also
deviced the LiveConnect interface for Konqueror that make it possible to call
Java methods from Javascript and vice versa. He is now working on improving
debugging of Javascript in Konqueror.


 Harri
Porten

<quote who="Harri Porten">
and Peter Kelly <quote who="Peter Kelly"> have developed a basic
graphical debugger

for
Javascript that you can see in action <a
href="http://www.xs4all.nl/~jjvrieze/snapshot2.png">here</a>. It is still not
very powerful. It is a compile option and not a running option.
Parsing the script in the debugging window is possible and Koos has recently
added
breaking

points.

The

evaluate
window doesn't work yet but Koos is planning implement it. For the time being,
he

has
imaginated a nice <a
href="http://lists.kde.org/?l=kfm-devel&m=103661664427286&w=2"> trick</a>
 to manipulate the Java script variables in a HTML page with

a
combination of dcop and Konqueror. Another limit when debugging
Javascript
in Konqueror is that the HTML tokenizer in khtml doesn't always provide 
the correct
line number.


So life is still a little rough. But hopefully, in the near future, with the
help

of Koos and other kjs and khtml hackers we will benefit from a versatile
specialised debugger that will make it easier to improve the quality of
Javascript support in KDE.

During the last weeks, the different national teams have been very busy working
updating the translations for KDE 3.1. Now that the finishing line has been
crossed, the

KDE

Cousin

editors

are

happy

to

crown
the grand winner: Sweden. With more than 90 % of <a
href="http://i18n.kde.org/stats/gui/HEAD/top10.php">gui</a> and <a
href="http://i18n.kde.org/stats/doc/test/index.html">documentation</a>
translated the elegant Swedes have clearly outpaced their followers during the
final
sprint.


KDE Cousin has heard some grumbling that blood samples from certain Swedish
translators should be tested for EPO and that this genetically modified reindeer
smoked meat looked fishy. But these are only pointless rumours of disgruntled
competitors.


The competition was indeed quite heated. There were 28 finalists who qualified
for

the
<a href="http://i18n.kde.org/stats/gui/HEAD/essential.php">green label</a>. A
team

reaches the green label when the essential packages
have

been
fully translated. After that, competition centers on the remaining modules and
on

the
translation of documentation.


Cheers to all translators who have been working round the clock to reach a
new mileage with KDE 3.1 and in the process have not only mastered English but
also Double Dutch the mother tongue of the developers.
