Description Andreas Pietzowski 2009-05-14 15:16:11 UTC 
Version:           4.2.2 (KDE 4.2.2) (using 4.2.3 (KDE 4.2.3), Kubuntu packages)
Compiler:          cc
OS:                Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.28-11-generic

The new Konqueror from KDE4 prints a "clear" button right next to every input field. Better to say "in" the input field. This is great but covers the typed characters when the input field is right aligned (e.g. when entering prices or right aligned numbers).

It would be great if Konqueror would check the alignment and put the clear-button on the other side of that input field.

Thanks
Andreas

a simple testcase ?
Comment 2 Andreas Pietzowski 2009-05-14 15:36:58 UTC 
I set up an example page that demonstrates the usability bug:

Created attachment 33662 [details]
the test case for this bug.

Thank you for this testcase. I upload it here in case the website is down for any reason.

The attachment doesn't work here. A Konqueror bug? *g*

Here is the code again - for the case my webserver is down - which shouldn't be ;-)

<INPUT type="text" name="test" align="right" style="text-align : right; float:right;">

This simple line shows the Konqueror bug perfect.

don't let our internal proxy style override any preexisting proxy
style - rather internally proxy the external widget's internal proxy style.
