Mozilla minimo version 0.4 is out!

Er, did I forget to take off my dunce-cap this evening, or is there no way to get the keyboard to pop up to enter URLs or information into input boxes?

BTW, thanks for this... I'm a huge fan of Mozilla's work.

What exactly do you mean? Right now there is a known bug (more like an issue that just hasn't been coded yet) of the keyboard/input method not poping up when you click in an editable field. Likewise, when you are typing the screen wont shift to allow you to see what you are typing (If the keyboard covers your typing, tough luck, gota scroll yourself). Both are being worked out in future releases.

Yeah, this is a great project and something definitely to keep an eye on. I'm positive it will only get better!

Thanks for your support! I hope you all are as exicted as I am for .005...

This seems to be just the issue I'm talking about. It makes it impossible to, for instance, enter any text into the search input field on Google (a link from Minimo's default homepage).

This I haven't had the (dis)pleasure of experiencing, because I don't know how to get the keyboard to come up at all while using Minimo. Moving the taskbar to the bottom obscures where the keyboard-revealing button normally appears on Pocket PC's - in the lower right. Unless I'm missing something (which wouldn't altogether be surprising).

The button for the keyboard is in the middle not on the right when the toolbar is at the bottom.

Ah, I see what it is... Using TranCreative's Magic Button forks up how Minimo handles the taskbar. I have to turn off Magic Button's task switched (which consumes the middle area) to reveal the keyboard button.

Tange, I think it is essential to have the option of turning OFF single-column view. Like others users have said, 99% of the time it's not a problem. But on a few websites, like those belonging to my bank, single-column messes up the "transfer funds" and "hold funds" buttons - you think you're clicking on one, but in reality you click on the wrong one. The only way for me to get around this is to turn off single-column browsing on PIE.

I know it might not seem ike a big deal, but running into a mess like that again with my bank would swear me off Mozilla for good (as far as pocket browsing goes).

Thanks for listening to our feedback! :)

Kikuchiyo,
What device are you running this on again?

Dell Axim X30 Mid, running it from the sD card.

Do you have a connection to the internet established before opening minimo?

No.

Have you had minimo startup at least one time since installing it? Minimo registers files on the first run and this can be the cause of the 'slow device' you were describing.

No, it has never gotten past the error message, which pops up just a few seconds after tapping on the program.

Just got back from my trip, no net access while away. Will try installing .005 and let you know how that goes.
