Version: 3.3.2 (using KDE 3.3.2, (3.1)) Compiler: gcc version 3.3.5 (Debian 1:3.3.5-8) OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.8 Couldn't the question for username and password used for HTTP authorization be asked WITHIN browser window instead of pop-up window? Some pros: - GREAT while restoring the session after initial login - if there were multiple such windows - if link requiring authorization is opened in the background tab, the user is not molested with the prompt until he turns his attention there - consistent with session-based authorization schemes applied by many websites (for the normal user there is no functional difference between those authorization schemes) - no more problems with pop-up window being hidden somewhere and konqueror unresponsive The only cons I find: - tradition (so maybe controlpanel option to disable it could be useful)
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
