Version: (using KDE KDE 3.2.1) Installed from: Gentoo Packages 1. Log in a "cookie based session" driven web site 2. After you've login open a link in a new window (i.e. with middle button ) 3. Close the new opened window. 4. Session cookie is gone, therefore session is gone. Konqueror deletes the cookies with lifetime 0 when you close the window. It's supposed to delete it when the _browser_ is closed. If this is supposed to be a feature of khtml, it breaks most of the "cookie based session" driven web sites, if web sites are using any new windows.
An issue that caused premature deletion of session cookies has been recently fixed for the next 3.2.x release (> 3.2.2). However, if the cookie is set by the new window, then when that window is closed the cookie added by it will be lost. BTW, what is the difference between a window and a browser ? Did you simply mean one of the windows that did not originally set the cookie ?
Hmm, yes. The cookie is set set in the first page and updated in every session usage which means new window will set a cookie too. And the difference is a user ( which is not aware of tabs, or just not used to it ) may ( and probably will ) use extra windows while surfing the web page because it does simple fasten your surfing experience. The lifetime 0 cookies must be deleted when all windows ( thus browser ) is closed in my opinion. By the way I'm compiling kde 3.2.2.
Hello, If the cookie is set in the first window and updated later in another popup window then I think the recent fix will resolve that issue. Please note that the fix did not make it into the 3.2.2 release :( That is why I said > 3.2.2. It will be in the 3.2.3 release whenever that comes out...
