* In a nutshell, all mobile browsers are broken.Ingo Schwarze2018-05-181-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | By default, no matter the physical screen size, they use a fixed viewport width of about 1000px, then scale down the rendered page to make that huge viewport fit on the physical screen. That results in poor rendering for bad websites which assume a large fixed-size viewport (typically requiring zooming in to be able to actually read any text), but in atrocious rendering for good websites that make no assumption about the screen size (unreadably small text in the top left corner, most of the screen empty). A standard way to disable that insane behaviour and just render normally on the actual physical screen size does not exist. The closest thing is the CSS3 Device Adaptation Module Level 1 https://drafts.csswg.org/css-device-adapt/ but https://caniuse.com/#feat=css-deviceadaptation tells me that basically no browser implements it, not even on mobile. The next closest thing is the HTML meta viewport element - even though the problem has nothing to do with HTML and is purely a CSS issue. Standardization is not even planned for that one: * HTML 5.2 mentions it in passing without specifying it: https://www.w3.org/TR/html/document-metadata.html#the-meta-element * The Web Hypertext Application Technology Working Group provides very incomplete information: https://wiki.whatwg.org/wiki/MetaExtensions * CSS3 Device Adaptation Module Level 1 already wants to deprecate it, explaining mostly how to migrate *away* from it to some castle in the sky that no browser implements: https://drafts.csswg.org/css-device-adapt/#viewport-meta While i strongly believe in sticking to well-established standards, in the absence of standards and with atrocious behaviour being universal, there appears to be no alternative to using whatever works. The meta viewport element appears to be the only way to make real-world mobile browsers decently render any HTML page that does not have a fixed-width layout of 1000px. So use it, grudgingly. Originally suggested by xcv at dr dot com. Direction supported by espie@.
* Split -Wstyle into -Wstyle and the even lower -Wbase, and addIngo Schwarze2017-06-241-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | -Wopenbsd and -Wnetbsd to check conventions for the base system of a specific operating system. Mark operating system specific messages with "(OpenBSD)" at the end. Please use just "-Tlint" to check base system manuals (defaulting to -Wall, which is now -Wbase), but prefer "-Tlint -Wstyle" for the manuals of portable software projects you maintain that are not part of OpenBSD base, to avoid bogus recommendations about base system conventions that do not apply. Issue originally reported by semarie@, solution using an idea from tedu@, discussed with jmc@ and jca@.
* KNF: remove parentheses from switch case labels; no binary changeIngo Schwarze2017-06-201-4/+4

* More thoroughly reject direct access to unintended files, such thatIngo Schwarze2017-04-191-1/+2
| | | | | | URIs like http://man.openbsd.org/OpenBSD-current/mandoc.db and http://man.openbsd.org/OpenBSD-current/man1/ do not cause display of garbage.
* Simplify: write HTTP 303 redirects with relative locations.Ingo Schwarze2017-03-181-10/+11
| | | | | | Suggested by bentley@. Delete the HTTP_HOST configuration variable that is now obsolete.
* Bugfix: use SCRIPT_NAME for .Xr hyperlinks.Ingo Schwarze2017-03-181-1/+2
| | | | Patch from <andreas at AndreasVoegele dot com>.
* In URIs in apropos(1) result tables,Ingo Schwarze2017-03-151-3/+6
| | | | only write the manpath if it does not match the default.
* Mention the manual page name and section in the HTML page <title>.Ingo Schwarze2017-03-151-33/+48
| | | | | Based on a patch from <Anton dot Lindqvist at gmail dot com>, but simplified and also covering apropos(1) search results.
* It's annoying that people keep writing URIs including redundant partsIngo Schwarze2017-03-151-2/+24
| | | | | like "/OpenBSD-current/manN/". To discourage that, let man.cgi(8) redirect search form results to nice, concise URIs.
* Pledge man.cgi(8).Ingo Schwarze2017-02-221-0/+16
| | | | | Based on a more complicated patch from semarie@. Sebastien and tb@ both agree with the simplification.

* Improve HTML formatting of .Bl -tag.Ingo Schwarze2017-01-251-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In particular, when using the style sheet, put the body on the same line as the head for short heads, or on the next line for long heads, in a way that preserves both correct indentation and correct vertical spacing with and without -compact, and with one or more heads per body (hi, Zaphod) - eight use cases so far - and with and without -tag, and with and without -offset, 32 use cases grand total. Using many ideas from zhuk@, from <David dot Dahlberg at fkie dot fraunhofer dot de>, and from Benny Lofgren <bl dash lists at lofgren dot biz>, and a few of my own. This is an excellent demonstration that CSS is an extremely hostile language, much more trapful and much harder to use than, say, C. When matthew@ reported this in July 2014 (!), it was already a known issue, and i no longer remember for how long. My first serious attempt at fixing it (in November 2015) failed miserably. I'd love to see simplifications of both the generated HTML code and of the style sheet, but without breaking any of the 32 use cases, please.

* Some base system pages, for example perl(1), contain non-ASCIIIngo Schwarze2016-07-311-1/+2
| | | | | | characters in their source code, so switch on charset autodetection in the same way as in man(1) itself. Issue reported by Pavan Maddamsetti at gmail dot com on bugs@.
* Make all components of the URI individually optional,Ingo Schwarze2016-07-111-16/+41
| | | | | | | independent of each other, as in: http://man.openbsd.org[/manpath][/mansec][/arch]/name[.sec] The restrictions in the past kept confusing people. Triggered by a question from RafaelNeves at gmail dot com.
* Simplify the code and the server setup by deleting the pseudo-manpathIngo Schwarze2016-07-101-11/+3
| | | | | | | | | | "mandoc" that was used for man.cgi(8) documentation and by assuming that the apropos(1) and man.cgi(8) manuals are simply installed in the default manpath. Even though man.cgi(8) is not installed by default when installing OpenBSD, it is easy to copy it into the default manpath used for man.cgi(8). Idea found when considering a question asked by wrant dot com.
* Do not treat PATH_INFO as a complete path if it doesn't containIngo Schwarze2016-07-091-1/+1
| | | | | | a manpath. For example, this makes http://man.openbsd.org/mandoc work as expected. Bug reported by tb@, reminded by Svyatoslav Mishyn.
* Simplify search form: minus two visible control elements, minusIngo Schwarze2016-05-281-27/+8
| | | | | one table, minus twenty lines of code, no loss of functionality. No idea why i didn't do this earlier...
* Only focus on the query input box when no manual page is displayed,Ingo Schwarze2016-04-291-8/+17
| | | | | | | | that is, for the index page, for the noresult page, and for the result of an apropos(1) query with more than one page. As noted by bentley@, when a manual page is displayed, it is more important that people can quickly use the space bar for paging and Ctrl-F for searching.
* Set the "autofocus" attribute on the query text box.Ingo Schwarze2016-04-281-1/+1
| | | | Patch from Fabian dot Raetz at gmail dot com.
* Rename five static functions to make the classification of functionsIngo Schwarze2016-04-151-15/+15

* Fix parsing of PATH_INFO if both a section directory and anIngo Schwarze2016-04-151-17/+13

* Make HTML tags lower case for better stylistic agreement with whatIngo Schwarze2016-04-151-96/+96

* In the architectures dropdown, move aviion, ia64, solbourne, and vaxIngo Schwarze2016-04-151-9/+9
| | | | down to the currently unsupported entries.
* If PATH_INFO contains a complete and correct path to a manual pageIngo Schwarze2016-04-151-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | file, for example "/OpenBSD-5.9/man2/pledge.2", no database query is needed and the file is delivered directly. But even in this case, let's parse the PATH_INFO and fill the query structure such that the search form at the top of the result page gets pre-filled with useful values.

* Make the SCRIPT_NAME logic simpler, safer, and make it actually work;Ingo Schwarze2016-03-181-23/+15
| | | | | in part based on ideas by bentley@. While here, improve the documentation.

* Don't retain the search query in the resulting manual links.Ingo Schwarze2016-01-041-55/+2
| | | | | Clean, simple URLs are best. Patch from bentley@.
* Modernization, no functional change intended:Ingo Schwarze2015-11-071-11/+22
| | | | | | Use the POSIX function getline(3) rather than the slightly dangerous BSD function fgetln(3). Remove the related compatibility code.
* Use include files "header.html" and "footer.html" rather than aIngo Schwarze2015-11-051-1/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | compiled-in string. This is not a security risk, we read the file manpath.conf from the same directory, anyway. No error handling is needed; even if the files are absent, that's not an error. This is more flexible without causing complication of the code or the user interface. It helps the upcoming revamp of the online manual pages on man.NetBSD.org. Based on an idea by Jean-Yves Migeon <jeanyves dot migeon at free dot fr>, but implemented in a much simpler way.
* Unify the three stylesheets into a single CSS file.Ingo Schwarze2015-11-051-4/+2
| | | | Many thanks to bentley@ for doing this work.
* use the new function man_validate() here, tooIngo Schwarze2015-10-221-1/+4

* In order to become able to generate syntax tree nodes on the roff(7)Ingo Schwarze2015-10-201-2/+4
| | | | | | | | level, validation must be separated from parsing and rewinding. This first big step moves calling of the mdoc(7) post_*() functions out of the parser loop into their own mdoc_validate() pass, while using a new mdoc_state() module to make syntax tree state handling available to both the parser loop and the validation pass.
* Major character table cleanup:Ingo Schwarze2015-10-131-7/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | * Use ohash(3) rather than a hand-rolled hash table. * Make the character table static in the chars.c module: There is no need to pass a pointer around, we most certainly never want to use two different character tables concurrently. * No need to keep the characters in a separate file chars.in; that merely encourages downstream porters to mess with them. * Sort the characters to agree with the mandoc_chars(7) manual page. * Specify Unicode codepoints in hex, not decimal (that's the detail that originally triggered this patch). No functional change, minus 100 LOC, and i don't see a performance change.
