Description Ivan D Vasin 2010-07-30 16:30:40 UTC
Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.4.5) 
OS:                Linux

this bug is in Konqueror 4.4.5, but this option is not listed in the "Application Version" dropdown list.

i would like to search for "rpm %config" on Google.  i think it's reasonable for me to assume that typing "rpm %config" into the search bar and pressing Enter should have this effect, but it doesn't.

a workaround is to instead type "rpm %25config" into the search bar.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. type "rpm %config" into the Konqueror search bar.
2. press Enter.

Actual Results:  
on Ubuntu:
    1. Konqueror navigates to <http://www.google.com/search?client=ubuntu&channel=ks&q=rpm+%EF%BF%BDnfig>, which amounts to a search query of "rpm  nfig".

Expected Results:  
on Ubuntu:
    1. Konqueror navigates to <http://www.google.com/search?client=ubuntu&channel=ks&q=rpm+%25config>, which amounts to a search query of "rpm %config".

OS: Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.34-020634-generic

this problem persists in Konqueror 4.5.1.
Comment 2 Ivan D Vasin 2011-04-01 17:11:12 UTC
still present with Konqueror 4.6.1.  searching from the address bar has a similar result.  does not affect rekonq 0.6.85.
