WebPositive

WebPositive，简称Web+，是Haiku的原生网络浏览器。它的命名一半来源于BeOS的简洁浏览器 - Netpositive，而另一半则源于它的现代浏览器核心：WebKit。WebKit的开源HTML渲染库也是其他主流浏览器的核心，例如，Mac OS X的Safari和Google的Chrome。随着WebKit的不断发展， Web+ 将能够很快的赶上最新的网络应用技术。

您可以使用 地址栏 控制您的网络浏览。在地址栏中输入网址（URL），然后按下 RETURN 或者点击地址栏右侧的 Go 按钮进入新的 Web 页面。当您输入时，Web+ 将会建议先前的网址供选择；您可以使用 UP 和 DOWN 按键浏览先前输入的网址。地址栏 上的图标会为您提供控制当前页面的功能，允许您返回，前进，停止载入，或者返回您的 启动页面。

如果您需要快速定位页面内容，Web+ 包含了页面内搜索功能。使用 Edit | Find 或者 ALT F 调用 Find 栏，然后输入您搜索的语句，之后按下 RETURN。继续按下RETURN 或者 ALT G 将会查找整个页面寻找匹配的内容。 The Match case option restricts matches to those with the same spelling as your search phrase. Besides in-page search, the Edit menu also includes clipboard functions: cut, copy, and paste.

The View menu offers several functions to set the display of Web pages. First, View | Reload refreshes the Web page so you can see any changes. You set the font size and zoom level of the Web page here as well; you can also choose whether to apply zoom to images as well as text. If you need more room to view the page, you can move into fullscreen mode with View | Fullscreen. Finally, if you want to view the HTML source code of the current page, View | Page source opens up an external editor to edit the source.

In case you need to find a page you've already accessed, Web+ has the History menu. This menu contains the Back and Forward commands which are in the Locator bar, but it also has a list of all pages in your browsing history, organized by day.

Last, the Bookmarks menu lets you add the current page as a bookmark and manage your bookmarks in Tracker. It also lets you see all the bookmarks themselves.

Right-clicking on your Web page or on elements in the page brings up a context menu. In this menu, you can Stop page loading. If you right-click a link, you can Download link to disk, Open, or Open in new tab. You can also Copy link to clipboard for use elsewhere. You can take similar actions with right-clicked images embedded in Web pages: Download image to disk, Copy image to clipboard, or Open image in new window. Right-clicking selected text allows you to Copy to the clipboard.

In the Status bar at the bottom of WebPositive's interface, you can preview where links will take you. Hover over a link in a Web page and its destination URL will appear in the Status bar. This bar will also show you progress as Web+ loads a new Web page.

设置

You can access the Web+ settings dialog from Window | Settings.

Many of the options are self-explanatory. The WebPositive Start page and Search page can be set here. You can also change which pages appear in new windows and tabs. Finally, you can change the default fonts and add a proxy server in this dialog.

The Auto-hide interface in fullscreen mode option will cause the interface to roll out of view if you don't use it for a short time while in fullscreen mode. Likewise, the Auto-hide mouse pointer option removes the mouse pointer from view when you are scrolling through a Web page.

Keyboard shortcuts

These are some commonly used keyboard shortcuts in WebPositive:

Bookmarks

One of WebPositive's unique features is its handling of bookmarks.

Web+ stores your bookmarks as files in Haiku's file system, and you can manage them with Tracker: ALT M will bring up your Bookmarks folder in Tracker. The files themselves are blank. Instead, Web+ stores each bookmark's URL and page title as attributes.

There are a number of advantages to this format; attribute storage is easy to filter and edit. Make sure that you first make the bookmark attributes visible from the Attributes menu in Tracker first. To add keywords to a bookmark, just right-click the bookmark in Tracker and choose Edit name, then use TAB to navigate to the keywords field. Once you're editing that field, type in your new keywords and press RETURN. You can edit the names, page titles and URLs of existing bookmarks with the same process.

Downloads

Web+ also supports managing your downloads in a similar way. The Downloads window appears when you begin a download; you can call it up manually from the Windows menu. From here, you can open, restart, or remove previous downloads.

Much like it does with bookmarks, Web+ stores information about each download as an attribute. The original URL of the download remains an attribute of the file, so you can always return to the source of the file.

Web+ will update and adjust to changes to the downloaded files. Notice that sunday.pdf was deleted, so its icon was ghosted out in the Downloads window. documents.html was renamed from its original name of documents, and the Downloads window updated accordingly.
