I am happy to say Gutenbrowser continues to live and breathe in the Opie cvs. I have not yet folded these changes back into gutenbrowser for desktop (at sourceforge). Nor have I updated this for qt 3. I will start by folding back into desktop, and then update for qt 3. thanks -- Lorn 'ljp' Potter Qtopia Community Liaison lpotter at trolltech.com
