Still current - printing a frame page results in an empty page.

Still current in KDE-3.2.2. This has been around for a _long_ time.
Such a basic "feature" has got to work.

Test page: http://poseidon.slcc.edu/hexf01a.html

Any updates from Safari that could help ?

Comment 7 Maksim Orlovich 2004-05-11 16:21:28 UTC
Safari can't help w/this in any way. Basically, the issue is that frames are widgets, and it's hard to get arbitrary widgets to print right... This is also why iframes, etc., always have infinite z-index. This may get easier w/Qt4, though..
Comment 8 Thomas Bettler 2004-09-21 12:20:18 UTC
IMHO ugly frame printing would still be better than none
Comment 9 Philippe Rigault 2005-03-08 02:40:35 UTC
Four years and counting ...

Firefox has a nice solution, it gives the user the choice about what "right" means. When you choose to print a page with frames, you get the following menu:

Print Frames
 - As laid out on the screen
 - The selected frame (option greyed out if no frame is selected)
 - Each frame separately

I think this would satisfy most users.

Comment 12 Petteri Räty 2005-11-21 18:14:45 UTC
I tried with http://pelit.veikkaus.fi/ and with KDE-3.5.0_rc1 konqueror still gives an empty page to kghostview preview.
Comment 13 Ian Ventura-Whiting 2006-08-29 14:14:44 UTC
This is still an issue both with KDE 3.5.3 (SuSE Packages) and KDE 3.5.4 (from source). However, both web sites above appear not to use frames, a url from a previous konqueror issue is more appropriate:

Comment 14 Kurt Pfeifle 2007-01-07 21:41:22 UTC
This one could be a duplicate of # 36912
Comment 15 Kurt Pfeifle 2007-01-07 21:42:13 UTC
Forget my last comment, I was in the wrong tab... :-|
Comment 16 Martin Fitzpatrick 2008-02-03 20:16:23 UTC
Test case provided by Ian Ventura-Whiting has moved to:
http://panola.kyla.fi/~teve/kde/set1.htm 

Bug still current on KDE/Konqueror 3.5.8 Kubuntu/Hardy.  Printing the test case above shows blank page with URL of the frameset at top.
Comment 17 George Goldberg 2008-04-03 12:42:26 UTC
This bug is still present in svn trunk r790203.
Comment 18 Dario Andres 2008-12-12 12:39:12 UTC
I can still reproduce this bug (at least when printing to PDF or PS) using both:
KDE4.1.3 
KDE4.2svn (kdelibs svn rev. 895869 / kdebase svn rev. 895869) }
and Qt: 4.4.3
on ArchLinux x86_64 

Printing each frame separately works OK
Comment 19 Jonas Vejlin 2009-06-19 21:06:53 UTC
I can reproduce it  in kde 4.2.4 and kde 3.5.10 using test case in #16
