Product: [Applications] konqueror Reporter: Alexander Patrakov <patrakov>
Component: generalAssignee: Konqueror Developers <konq-bugs>
Status: RESOLVED FIXED    
Severity: normal CC: aiacovitti

Platform: Gentoo Packages   
OS: Linux   
Latest Commit: Version Fixed In: 4.8.2

Description Alexander Patrakov 2012-03-04 15:43:23 UTC 
When POSTing forms, Konqueror sends the Content-Type header as follows:

Content-Type:application/x-www-form-urlencoded

Note the lack of the space character between ":" and "a". Due to the lack of this space, it is impossible to log into OpenWRT-based wireless routers using Konqueror. This has been reported as https://dev.openwrt.org/ticket/11079
