Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.1)

Hi!

I tried to use a web page as desktop background using kwebdesktop.

But my page uses a meta refresh line in the header (e.g. <meta http-equiv="Refresh" content="300">) and on all pages with such a meta tag, kwebdesktop hangs (seemingly forever). 

I think it waits for the refresh event to occur.

This is very bad for kwebdesktop, because if you start such a configured kde, kdesktop waits for kwebdesktop to finish and in this case resulting in a very ugly grey X style background without any icons.

Greets,
Daniel Eckl

add the following line to kwebdesktop.cpp:

part->setMetaRefreshEnabled(false);

place it near to this statements:

part->setJScriptEnabled(false);
part->setJavaEnabled(false);

This solves the problem.

Looks like this one could go to stable tree easily.
