Some websites discriminate against your browser.
</p>
<p>
Use Tango as a fallback for your icon theme:
-
</p>
<pre class="code">gtk-icon-theme-name = "MySuperFancyTheme"
gtk-fallback-icon-theme = "Tango"</pre>
<p>
Use a smaller toolbar:
-
</p>
<pre class="code">gtk-toolbar-icon-size = GTK_ICON_SIZE_SMALL_TOOLBAR</pre>
<p>
Enable changing hotkeys while hovering menu items:
-
</p>
<pre class="code">gtk-can-change-accels = 1</pre>

Try searching for a package named nspluginwrapper or similar in your distribution repositories. It implements plugins in their own process so they can't drag down the whole browser.

That's a problem with WebKit. You can work around it to some extent if you start Midori like so:
</p>
<pre class="code bash"><span class="kw3">export</span> <span class="re2">WEBKIT_IGNORE_SSL_ERRORS</span>=<span class="st0">"1"</span> midori</pre>

Java is supported in WebKitGTK+ since 1.1.22. If you need Java, you need to upgrade to at least that version. Sun/ Oracle Java as well as IcedTea are known to work. Distribution specific setup might be required, such as setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH to include the location of libxul.so and making a symbolic link for libnpjp2.so to /usr/lib/mozilla.

Currently only <acronym title="Hyper Text Transfer Protocol">HTTP</acronym> proxy servers are supported directly. A way to use SOCKS on Unix is to use tsocks with <acronym title="Secure Shell">SSH</acronym> as follows:

In the menubar, go to View → Toolbars → Menubar, voilà the menubar is gone and a new icon appears at the right end of the toolbar. Click the icon to access functionality that otherwise sits in the menubar.
Midori 0.3.2 disables the menubar by default.

Midori tries to make a smart guess on whether you are searching for something or typing a valid address by hand. Yet there are ambiguous cases so it fails.

Hold the Shift key while clicking Refresh in the toolbar (this works in Chromium, Mozilla, Opera and Safari, too).
Since Midori 0.3.2 you can use Ctrl+Shift+R.

Right-click the tab label, and click 'Minimize' or 'Show Tab Icon Only' (Midori 0.3.5 or older).

Midori opens files with GIO, and falls back to xdg-open, exo-open or gnome-open if these are available. All of this relies on freedesktop.org <acronym title="Multipurpose Internet Mail Extension">MIME</acronym> configuration. To tweak this there are multiple options:
-
</p>
<ol>
<li class="level1"><div class="li"> Use 'Open With' with a graphical file manager</div>
</ol>
<p>
-
xdg-open knows how to handle GNOME, KDE and Xfce.
LXDE is unfortunately not supported yet, see <a href="https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=26058" class="urlextern" title="https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=26058" rel="nofollow">https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=26058</a>

As of git 2011-03-05 02:40:00 UTC and Midori 0.3.3 you can
</p>
<p>
Add a line to ~/.local/share/applications/mimeapps.list:
-
</p>
<pre class="code"> x-scheme-handler/magnet=transmission-gtk.desktop</pre>
<p>
-
Or install an application which advertises the scheme like so:
-
</p>
<pre class="code"> MimeType=x-scheme-handler/magnet;</pre>
<p>
-
Note that incomplete .desktop files will silently fail and it will look as if it doesn't exist.

There are two closely related features to open websites as dedicated windows of their own. You can do the following to use them:
-
</p>
<ol>
<li class="level1"><div class="li"> Right-click a hyperlink → Open as Web Application</div>
</ol>
<p>
-
A private window is a separate process, so crashes don't affect the normal browser session. No sensitive data such as cookies, history or bookmarks are stored. No extensions are loaded. Panels are not available.

By running a local proxy you can modify web content even before it has reached Midori. That allows you to do things similar to what user scripts and user styles provide and even others that neither is suitable for.

Polipo is a caching web proxy (a web cache) designed to be used by one

By default the right mouse button initiates gestures.
</p>
<p>
You can change the button using a hidden option:
-

<ol>
<li class="level1"><div class="li"> Create a text file ~/.config/midori/extensions/libmouse-gestures.so/config .</div>
button=2</pre>

For a quick and dirty overview of the gestures in the current release take a look at the <a href="http://www.matthiaskruk.de/midori/mouse-gestures.pdf" class="urlextern" title="http://www.matthiaskruk.de/midori/mouse-gestures.pdf" rel="nofollow">preliminary manual</a>.

UserScripts are scripts applied on some, or on all web pages. They can modify pages locally to add or alter functionality. That includes fixing bugs in web pages. User scripts are also available in other browsers, in the form of <a href="http://www.greasespot.net" class="urlextern" title="http://www.greasespot.net" rel="nofollow">Mozilla's Greasemonkey</a> or <a href="http://www.opera.com/support/tutorials/userjs/" class="urlextern" title="http://www.opera.com/support/tutorials/userjs/" rel="nofollow">Opera's User JavaScript</a>.

First enable the “User Addons” extension. It will show up as a “User Scripts” panel (and it also provides “User Styles”).
</p>
<div class="level4">
<p>

As previously mentioned, Midori can use most scripts you will find. Midori supports Greasemonkey's <em>@include</em> and <em>@exclude</em> metadata so that scripts are only loaded on appropriate pages. Midori doesn't support advanced metadata, such as @require and @resource, so user scripts can't define dependencies on other scripts - most of the time this isn't a problem. Midori also does not support <a href="http://wiki.greasespot.net/API_reference" class="urlextern" title="http://wiki.greasespot.net/API_reference" rel="nofollow">Greasemonkey API</a>. Scripts must also be compatible with Webkit, since Midori is based on WebKit. A Greasemonkey script that makes use of functionality of Gecko/ Firefox will not work in Midori.

You can use <a href="http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/45343" class="urlextern" title="http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/45343" rel="nofollow">BlockFlash2</a> as a user script which replaces all Flash elements with a button that says “Play Flash”.
</p>
<div class="level4">
<p>

You can also use <a href="http://rightfootin.blogspot.com/2009/04/flashblock-wannabe.html" class="urlextern" title="http://rightfootin.blogspot.com/2009/04/flashblock-wannabe.html" rel="nofollow">FlashBlock WannaBe</a> as a user script in order to replace Flash elements with placeholders and load them on click. The script is pretty advanced compared to most Flash blockers found on the web.

User styles are <acronym title="Cascading Style Sheets">CSS</acronym> Cascading Style sheets that are loaded locally and applied on top of web pages, similar to User scripts, in order to add or alter functionality and also fix bugs.
</p>
<div class="level4">
<p>
-
First, you need to find some styles (or write your own). You can find some at <a href="http://userstyles.org/" class="urlextern" title="http://userstyles.org/" rel="nofollow">userstyles.org</a>. Many styles may or may not work, depending on whether the author decided to use browser specific features.
</p>
<div class="level4">
<p>
-
Open up the Preferences and use the file chooser button beside User Stylesheet to choose a style sheet file. The style sheet will from now on be applied to all sites automatically.
</p>
<div class="level4">
<p>
-
This user css is used to display the corresponding url when a link is hovered. This is similar to what chromium/chrome provides when hovering over a link, shown on the bottom left of the page. Add the following to <strong>~/.local/share/midori/styles</strong>, then restart Midori and make sure that it is enabled Tools → Userstyles.
