add a bookmark - tazweb - cooking

Hi,

how is it possible to add a bookmark in tazweb browser by using the right-click dialogue?

In case I click on ,,add a bookmark" nothing happens.

And for this operation I do not want to manually  edit the file

/home/tux/.config/tazweb/home.html

Any solution known?

It is a nice, quick and slim browser that I like.

Re: add a bookmark - tazweb - cooking

Ok, I had a closer look into it.

Bookmarks are written if tazweb opened a page. Right-click on ,,Add a bookmark" should then write this bookmark into the file /home/tux/.config/tazweb/home.html. Like this:

<h2>Bookmarks</h2>

    <!-- start:bookmarks -->
[*]SliTaz Bug tracker

[*]The GNU Website

[*]is.gd URL shortener

[*]www.google.de - Google Search

    <!-- end:bookmarks -->

If I login as root it works. As user tux it does not work. tazweb does not (!) write this bookmark into this file.

The permissions of this file are

root@slitaz:/home/tux/.config/tazweb# ls -ll home.html

-rw-r--r--    1 tux      tux           2046 Feb 12 07:33 home.html

So: why does tazweb not write into this file?

tux@slitaz:~$ tazweb

sed: can't create temp file '/home/tux/.config/tazweb/home.htmlMxa5Nb': Permission denied

That happens when I try to add a bookmark. How to change that? Which permissions must be set where?

root@slitaz:~# ls -ll /usr/bin/tazweb

-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     tux          15184 May 28  2011 /usr/bin/tazweb

Re: add a bookmark - tazweb - cooking

Solved - in a newbie style:

I just archived /root/.local and /root/.config, deleted /homt/tux/.local and /home/tuc/.config and copied those archives to /home/tux. I unpacked them, set the permission to tux:tux - and now it works.

Whoever is responsible for this forum: in case you find this thread, where I talked to myself, not useful for the readers => delete it! ;-)

Even if you talk to yourself, it is nice for us to follow this post.

Nobody answered, so what? It does not mean that nobody cares. :-)

Thanks - but: too much to read for a small brain! I was busy with converting debian-packagen... forgive me, I will feel ashamed for neglecting Babaorum and profit from his work! ;-)

Re: add a bookmark - tazweb - cooking

This is far too complicated for a normal user. Although am not a beginner but it took time for me to read and understand this. Isn't there any easy way to do that?

I also want to know how can we make custom bookmarks in taz browser?

@johncadman

Funny to be remembered of own contributions after some time. In the meantime I found out how it works (but not why certain webpages cannot be bookmarked! Strange...) and in the text days I have a close look for Babaorums work, promised.

For a normal user it works like written above - if the permissions are set right. If not: write to this forum, please. In most cases help is breathtakingly quick...
