Version: 3.5.2 (using KDE 3.5.2, Kubuntu Package 4:3.5.2-0ubuntu18.1 dapper) Compiler: Target: i486-linux-gnu OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.15-27-386 login into a htaccess protected page and start XHR requests in authenticated state, the XHR object doesn't use the authentication data from the login, the data is requested again via popup (user defaults to null here). the XHR request targets the same domain/directory. i'm not sure if this is a bug, but FF 1.5.0.7 can handle this transparantly.
Same problem here. XMLHttpRequest is not able to reuse the provided login data. An auth dialog pops up with the word "undefined" as the username. It seems that the username field is read-only. Perhabst the auth-system conflicts with the kwallet? I'm using a freh KDE 3.5.6. Thanks in advance, Marc Boeker
I figured out, that this problem exists only while using the prototype javascript framework. a direct xmlhttprequest without using prototype works great. perhabst there is something wrong with the headers, prototype sends to the server?
Ha! problem fixed :) this bug is also present in safari and it is definitivly prototype specific. using this patch [1] fixed the problem. as it is not konqueror/khtml related, i think this bug-report can be closed?
