Version:           3.5.8 (using 3.5.8, Gentoo)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.4.6 (Gentoo 3.4.6-r1, ssp-3.4.5-1.0, pie-8.7.9)

Hi,

Konqueror doesn't remember character encodings when opening a link in a new tab.
Here is what to do to reproduce the bug :

- Open a web page
- change its encoding (e.g. from utf8 to iso-8859-1) with right click->encoding->manual->iso-8859-1
- open a link -> encoding change is remembered (stays at manual)
- open the same link in a new tab -> encoding change is lost (defaults to automatic)

Best

Here using:

Qt: 4.4.3 + qt-copy-patches-889120
KDE: 4.1.87 (KDE 4.1.87 (KDE 4.2 >= 20090101))
kdelibs svn rev. 906436 / kdebase svn rev. 906436
on ArchLinux x86_64 - Kernel 2.6.27.10

I can reproduce this behaviour.
