Description Clarence Dang 2004-08-24 06:41:18 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.3.0)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources
OS:                Linux

For both of the following 2 cases:

1. "Automatically load images" is off
2. "Automatically load images" is on but the image is not fully loaded yet (this includes when only half of the image is currently loaded and displayed)

Please:

1. Show the image border
2. Show the alt tag

This makes pages more navigable.

No alt is bug 75968.

Looks like that KDE-3.4.0 changed its behavior and now displays these image borders (and icons in the upper left corner) if image is not yet loaded completely. Personally I _HATE_ this change! It's just butt ugly! Feels like I'm back in Netscape Navigator 3 days :-(

Please, make it configurable or display just borders _without_ icons.

Sorry, found the setting to turn this off :-)
It took me 2 days to found it though...

It's almost working in KDE 3.4 now.

I have images turned off but it doesn't always show the border.
See the artist pics under the "Spotlight" section at 
http://www.ticketmaster7.com.au/.

I think this is due to a JS image loading trick since the image starts off 
small:

<img src='images/page/2x1_grey.gif' width=2 height=240 border=0>

but it would still be nice to see an approx 2x240 placeholder.

I would opt for showing "marks" even (when the size of the image is unknown) -- this way I could do something with image/link, now Konqueror hides images before loading, so even the link is there, user cannot LMB or RMB on it.
Comment 6 Martin Koller 2011-06-12 15:01:08 UTC 
The picture frame is only shown if the width >= 3 (KDE 4.6.4).
I'd say, this is "good enough". Let's close this old wish.
