Description Brendan Orr 2003-04-09 09:10:51 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources

When clicking the "up" button.  Konqueror shouldn't only just go up a directory.  For instance if one was reading through a forum and wished to go back to the list of forums (or topics), clicking up should go there.  Making the url go from
http://www.somewhere.org/forums/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=5;t=004317
to
http://www.somewhere.org/forums/ultimatebb.php  
which usually returns to the list of topics/forums.  Really easy to impliment by parsing the url for "?" and removing the characters afterword as well as the "?" itself.

this may make sense for your forum, but I'm not sure for how many scripts it would 
simply break. E.g. bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=57033 makes sense, while 
show_bug.cgi doesn't really make sense. It will prompt for a bug number, so I don't 
close your bug report right away - it would be interersting to see what breaks :)
