Version: (using KDE KDE 3.5.5) Installed from: Compiled From Sources Compiler: g++ (GCC) 4.1.2 20061028 (prerelease) (Debian 4.1.1-19) OS: Linux The following code fragment in the KTTS Konqueror plugin returns markup that is missing the <html> element. Instead, it contains the DOCTYPE followed by <body> element. KHTMLPart *part = (KHTMLPart *) parent(); part->selectAll(); query = part->selectedTextAsHTML(); // Restore no selection. part->setSelection(part->document().createRange()); The API docs for selectedTextAsHTML claim the returned string will have the html element. Here is the web page source I happened to be experimenting with: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> <html lang="en" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en"> <head> <meta name="generator" content= "HTML Tidy for Linux/x86 (vers 1 September 2005), see www.w3.org" /> <meta name="http-equiv" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" /> <title>Simple Q Test</title> <meta name="author" content="Benjamin Hawkes-Lewis" /> </head> <body> <h1>Simple Q Test</h1> <p>Markup only: <q>Hi there.</q></p> <p>Markup plus superfluous punctuation: "<q>Hi there.</q>"</p> <p>Punctuation only: "Hi there."</p> </body> </html> The string returned from selectedTextAsHTML follows: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> <body><H1>Simple Q Test</H1> <P>Markup only: <Q>Hi there.</Q></P> <P>Markup plus superfluous punctuation: "<Q>Hi there.</Q>"</P> <P>Punctuation only: "Hi there."</P></body> Browsing the KHTMLPart code, it appears that my call to part->selectAll() is the cause. Is there a simple way I can select all of the document so that selectedTextAsHTML() would include the html element?
Thank you for the bug report. As this report hasn't seen any changes in 10 years or more, we ask if you can please confirm that the issue still persists. If this bug is no longer persisting or relevant please change the status to resolved.
Created attachment 136919 [details] 0x54DD58CF23AAAFB0.asc Wow, this was certainly a blast from the past! Unfortunately, I don't use KDE any more; haven't for years, so I can't say if the bug still exists or not. It used to impact the accessibility plugin in Konqueror, but I doubt that is an issue any more. In all likelihood, you can close the bug as "Overcome by Events (OBE). And I couldn't log into bugzilla anymore; hence this attempt to reply to you. Thank you for all the hard work you and all the contributors put into KDE. It is an awesome desktop. Best regards
