Note that the code is already there, just commented out:

# uzbl-event-manager will exit if one is already running.
# we could also check if its pid file exists to avoid having to spawn it.
DAEMON_SOCKET="$XDG_CACHE_HOME"/uzbl/event_daemon
#if [ ! -f "$DAEMON_SOCKET".pid ]
#then
${UZBL_EVENT_MANAGER:-uzbl-event-manager -va start}
#fi

I have noticed that if it is left so, a new instance of uzbl-event-manager is started, which opens the $XDG_CACHE_HOME/uzbl/event_daemon.log file, then notices another instance is already running, and exits. For some reason, this also results in a large binary dump of zeros into the log file (at least on my system):

[1355417388.042650] uzbl-event-manager: INFO: logging to '/home/veox/.cache/uzbl/event_daemon.log'
[1355417388.043022] uzbl-event-manager: INFO: daemon action 'start'
[1355417388.043300] uzbl-event-manager: INFO: read pid 6690 from pid file '/home/veox/.cache/uzbl/event_daemon.pid'
[1355417388.043436] uzbl-event-manager: ERROR: event manager already started with pid 6690
^@^@^@^@ (many)

Starting a new instance of Python to run the event manager probably takes longer than doing a shell check anyway. I suggest this be uncommented.

Thoughts?

You cannot switch to a tab by clicking on it, nothing happens.

Data stored in localStorage is supposed to persist across browser instances, but this does not happen in Uzbl.

Go to http://people.w3.org/mike/localstorage.html
Enter a key/value pair, click setItem()
Close and reopen Uzbl, returning to this page
No items are stored.

In Firefox and Chromium, the stored items show up after a restart; in Uzbl and Surf, they do not.

Now if curent uri is too long to fit in status bar we cannot see wait/done and scrolling percentage. Also almost always we cannot see selected uri.

I belive that we need to have a way to truncate curent uri... e.g. http://<first n simbols>...<last m simbols> or http://<first n% of stusbar length>...<last m%>

For selected uri, i mean, second (pop-up) bar will be best solving. Same as in chromium. When we hold cursor over link, second bar with selected uri is popping up.

Maybe part of this can be solved with scripts, but i think that we will need to make some changes in core...

uzbl-tabbed crashed by java-applet:
https://www.bankid.no/Hjelp-og-nyttige-verktoy/Nyttige-verktoy/Test-din-datamaskin/
this applet is actively used for online banking in Scandinavian countries so it's absolute blocker.

Tested on ubuntu x86_64, uzbl 0.0.0~git.20120514-1

Here is the crash log:

Problem: When viewing certain websites (facebook.com, some wordpress.com blogs, theregister.co.uk), a scrollbar with no functionality will be rendered on the right side of the browser window.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Visit one of the aforementioned sites.

The compilation process is not getting very far at all, this occurs while compileing the first file. (using make -B)
I haven't been able to find anything on the web about "error: expected specifier-qualifier-list before ‘WebKitWebInspector’". Any ideas?

I am running Uzbl-git 20090826-2 from AUR in Archlinux.I have noticed that when posting at various forums including http://bbs.archlinux.org that when posting threads, spacing between sentences, etc. are missing. I have found out that using two spaces between lines sometimes fixes this problem.

Thanks

On heise.de there are some images which link to another page. Using right-click + Open image in new window, the link target is opened instead of the image.

mail.yahoo.com (clasic) do not work.
