Description Dima Ryazanov 2005-04-05 00:39:51 UTC
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.4.0)
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3.5 (Gentoo Linux 3.3.5-r1, ssp-3.3.2-3, pie-8.7.7.1)
OS:                Linux

If a form contains a <textarea>, the data is not stored into the wallet. E.g.,

  <form action="..." method="post">
   <p>Name: <input type="text" name="name"></p>
   <p><textarea /></p>
   <p><input type="submit" value="Submit"></p>
  </form>

Of course, saving the contents of the textarea might not be a good idea, but the rest of the data should still be stored in the wallet.

An example of a stupid login page with a form that has a (readonly) textarea: https://efiling.uscis.dhs.gov/efile/

the wallet does not ask if the pass should be stored, confirming.

Dear user,

KHTML (and KJS) was a long time more or less unmaintained and got removed in KF6.

Please migrate to use a QWebEngine based HTML component.

We will do no further fixes or improvements to the KF5 branches of these components beside important security fixes.

For security issues, please see:

https://kde.org/info/security/

Sorry that we did not fix this issue during the life-time of KHTML.

Greetings
Christoph Cullmann
