Version: 4.3.00 (KDE 4.3.0) (using 4.3.00 (KDE 4.3.0), Debian packages) Compiler: cc OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.30-4.slh.2-sidux-686 By now it is not possible to use ebay(.de) with konqueror. On the products' pages the part with the description is missing. Instead it shows a huge blank frame with a scrollbar. Works fine with firefox. Strangely it does work rarely when I mask konqueror as Internet Explorer 5/Mac or Chrome though but choosing another useragent and back to that one that worked it doesn't work anymore.
Same here, ebay.fr on Archlinux KDE 4.3
For me it does work now...
Well it still doesn't work for me... Huge scrollbar when viewing an item.
Same here on OpenSUSE 11.1/KDE4.3.1
Same problem with KDE 4.3.2 on Gentoo
Same for me (OpenSuSE 11.2, KDE 4.4RC2)
I'm not sure if anything can be done in this case by the konq devs, I guess we all have to convince ebay (ha ha) to treat konqueror like Safari or Chrome for cgi.ebay.de/com...
@Comment #2: > For me it does work now... Are you sure? @Comment #7: > I guess we all have to convince ebay ... konqueror is already able to send fake browser id but it does not help in this case. BTW webkit based rekonq renders these description frames properly. Why is this bug still unconfirmed?
@Comment #8: Yes, I am sure. It does work now permanently when I use the useragent safari, on sidux and kubuntu.
Using Safari 3.1 as the user agent fixed it for me too on ebay.com.au
*** This bug has been confirmed by popular vote. ***
It's also the same in the upcoming 4.5, huge blank space and unsing Safari as user agent workarounds the problem.
In 4.5.2, using the WebKit view mode shows the frame contents, but then the pop-up image at the top-left doesn't work - it opens a new blank tab and a new blank window. btw, this blank frame has affected Konqueror since 3.5.x - when eBay went to a framed layout - so it's endemic to KHTML.
It's not endemic to KHTML, it's endemic to ebay's ignorance bacause using another useragent does workaround that problem. I guess the problem is that ebay needs to be convinced to use the same side profile for konqueror as for safari (same as facebook which does not show the chat when konqueror is marked as konqueror).
Or the konqueror useragent string needs to contain something that triggers the safari profile of certain webpages!
