Hi,
hv3 can be downloaded here:
http://tkhtml.tcl.tk/hv3.html
it is a OOTB-working binary ...having all needed dependencies and is only 3,3MB big ...!
and it supports javascript...! see screenshot hereunder
It runs ok on wheezy-3.5.2.11.
Hope this helps !
Charlie

about that pet:
the /usr/bin/hv3 script has the command
exec wish /usr/share/hv3/hv3_main...
in it
to get the wish command (which is not present in puppy) one needs to install tk8.5 which has /usr/bin/wish8.5 in it; and aftrwds manualy create the symlink /usr/bin/wish.
hv3 can also be downloaded from PPM, but the total size of all the files and deps (about 15MB when installed ...! :? ) exceeds the size of the above binary.
So i recommend the above one package binary.

The bookmarked browsers are still usefull. This morning i used Puppybrowser to surf to my adsl supplier. because Puppies are now delivered without anything, like windows. Are there still a Puppy, or just a kernel ? Dillo is too weak, PuppyBrowser is the tool, when you are blocked.
