Description JG 2006-06-04 14:22:21 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.3)
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3.6 (Gentoo 3.3.6, ssp-3.3.6-1.0, pie-8.7.8) 
OS:                Linux

hi,

"www.raiffeisen.at" is the homepage of one of the largest banks in austria and it gets rendered completely f'd up in every konqueror version i tried (at least all 3.5.x are affected). many site elements are missing (form fields, ...) and completely misplaced and there is nearly no text shown. 

safari (v2.0.3) on MAC is also affected, firefox and opera show the page fine. i don't know if it is poor website design or a khtml thing. if you think it is a problem with their code i'll report it to them too as the page is really unusable.

this is looking rather bad: http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.raiffeisen.at%2FeBusiness%2Frai_template1%2F0%2C7572%2C1006637000974-NA-NA-NA-1-NA%2C00.html

this is also somewhat bad:

just seems like konqueror isn't yet as good at rendering crap as opera and firefox ;)

Comment 2 JG 2006-06-04 18:35:38 UTC

hehe, nice.. or not :) i guess i'll ask them to fix those errors then..

thanks
JG

Comment 3 Allan Sandfeld 2006-06-04 23:06:42 UTC

It's caused by <!--BEGIN-- rai_left -->

So a regression in SGML comment parsing

SVN commit 548216 by carewolf:

Don't assume that a website that sends us a broken crappy DOCTYPE is going
to be even remotely parsable in strict mode.

SVN commit 548236 by carewolf:

Copy Mozilla doctype detection instead.
Simplify spaces in the doctype string, but keep the "broken doctypes means
strict HTML" behavior.

Comment 6 JG 2006-06-05 16:53:50 UTC

thanks very much! tested it and works very well!

now i only have to find out why rendering of http://last.fm is broken in 3.5.3, in 3.5.2 it worked fine.. guess this will be a new bug report :)
