Description Matej Cepl 2005-12-02 01:24:50 UTC

Version:           1.1.3 (using KDE 3.4.2, Debian Package 4:3.4.2-4 (testing/unstable))
Compiler:          Target: i486-linux-gnu
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.13.3

When reading Tim Bray's Ongoing blog (http://www.tbray.org/ongoing/) through akregator with Atom feed (http://www.tbray.org//ongoing/ongoing.atom; be aware, that he is one of the chairs of Atom commitee, so I guess that his feed should be OK :-)) I cannot get to any link coming from the article in akregator window. When writing him about this, his response (see attached) was that he uses xml:base (http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlbase/), which has pretty bad coverage. Would it be possible for akregator to support it (it should be reasonably simple IMHO, does konqueror support <base> element of old HTML)?

Thanks a lot,

Matej

Confirmed. Let me check if I can hack xml:base support into the 3.5 branch, otherwise we have to wait for it until KDE4 (which will have a new shiny RSS/Atom parser)

This problem still exists in Akregator 1.3.3

I can report that this bug *still* occurs in Akregator 1.5.3 with KDE 4.3.3

akregator: Support nested xml:base attributes

Feed from tbray.org has such nested xml:base attributes. Added it to the
test suite.

The change also slightly changes the output of bug-190068.xml.
