Description Jonathan Thomas 2008-04-21 14:23:33 UTC
Version:           4.0.3 (using KDE 4.0.3)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages
OS:                Linux

Navigating to the page http://uk.weather.com/weather/today-Oxford-OX2 causes repeated page refreshes which all occur before the page is finished rendering. Using Firefox 3 beta5, the page loads fine.

hmm, I can reproduce this on svn trunk r795406. I'll try and make a test case for it and upload it later.

half a testcase

I got about half way to a testcase before I just couldn't get it to work. So
i'll attach it here to save some-one else a bit of time if they try and make
one.

Similar behaviour with this link - it reloads endlessly with an irritating pop up that has a mesage reloading page in between reloads.

Also verified the same behaviour with link  http://uk.weather.com/weather/today-Oxford-OX2

Using Konqueror 4.4.00 on Arch Linux
Comment 4 David Heijkamp 2011-01-01 20:41:26 UTC
The problem doesn't occur with Konqueror 4.5.4 / Qt 4.7.1 / Fedora 14, using both KHTML and Webkit.
