Icab desktop mode7/3/2023 Please support Alexander Clauss if you like this browser. It seems to work correctly, although, not being blind, I cannot really judge speech browsers.Īn iCab licence is $29 or €29 I bought one. As a bonus, iCab has an in-built speech browser. Blink, EdgeHTML, Flow, Gecko, Goanna, iCab, KHTML, Links, Lynx, NetFront, NetSurf, Presto, Tasman, Trident, w3m, WebKit or undefined.iCab is also available for Mac OS 9, and given the sparsity of browsers for this OS it's probably the best choice.One thing is certain: it doesn't support my navigation frame (probably because it doesn't support fetching new CSS and/or script files). iCab seems to support DOM1 rather well, but I haven't yet formally tested it.Rather useless in practice, but it's an example of the trouble iCab's programmers take to support CSS. As a bonus, iCab is the only browser to support white-space: pre-line.iCab's support for the CSS I test is roughly equal to Opera's not a bad score at all.There's just one little white line that isn't supposed to be there. iCab supports WaSP's Acid 2 Test almost perfectly.If you want to make the tab load sites in mobile mode again, just re-open the Chrome menu and tap Request Mobile Site. Therefore iCab is without a doubt the ultimate hip Web 2.0 browser. In Google Chrome for iOS, open the Chrome menu (tap the three dots on the navigation bar), scroll down the list of options, and tap Request Desktop Site. This used to be slightly laughable, but with the advent of Web 2.0 perpetual betas have become hip and happening. Just now I took another look at the new iCab 3.0 beta, and discovered it's a good browser well on the way to becoming excellent. It didn't support absolute positioning and :hover. Run Gimp and work with the Apple Pencil inside of Gimp. It compares well to the Atomic Web ( reviewed here) and Mercury web ( reviewed here) browsers, but its sharing modules are more extensive, including the ability to save web pages to Safaris own Reading List. I tested version 2.9.8 in May 2004, and was not impressed. For an iPad to replace my current laptop, it must: Have at least a 1080p screen in 16:9 format. iCab is now in its 8th version, with an optimized iOS 7 redesign and a boat load of features and customisations. Later, when I founded, I decided to focus on those browsers that have CSS1 and DOM1 support, and iCab didn't. In those days I tested every browser I could lay my hands on, and therefore iCab was featured in several compatibility tables on the old JavaScript Section. More than enough reason to recommend iCab to all Mac users that read my site, and to update my CSS compatibility table.īack in February 2000 I came across an obscure Mac browser named iCab. It has good (though not perfect) CSS1 and DOM1 support, and to my surprise it even contains a speech browser. ICab 3.0 is a surprisingly good, independent Mac (OS X and 9!) browser created by Alexander Clauss. Sitemap contact iCab 3.0 CSS compatibility updated
