Description Niko Efthymiou 2006-12-01 02:54:42 UTC
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.5)
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages

It would be nice if there was an icon indicating that the currently displayed site tries to set a cookie and/or has javascript embeded. By I clicking the icon the sources of the cookies and/or javascript could be show allong with the information if these are enabled for the related source. Clicking on this could toggle the setting. This I think would be less bothering than having a dialog pop up with eacht site, as is the case with the "Ask for confirmation" setting for cookies or having to manualy add each site in the configuration that needs javascript.

Enabling javascript and cookies globaly resolve this issue, but this might be undesireble for security and privacy reasons.
