Some time ago I submit a feature request to request support for the yahoo's rich text editor and someone told me that he'll work on it, but the feature request is still UNCONFIRMED and no changes have been made. I just want to know if someone is working on this feature.

Hello,    
   
This is a dup of 53537. In the future, please add comments to that bug.  
 
Have you contacted the Yahoo folks yet about letting Konq "see" the page 
without a modified user agent?  
 
I have not yet taken a serious look at this. One option I have investigated is 
the possibility of using MIDAS (mozilla's new rich edit api) in Konq. That 
might not fix Yahoo's page, but it would present some form of defacto standard 
for rich text formatting that a number of different browsers support. At that 
point, maybe Yahoo and others could start using that API. 
 
Please keep bugging me about this. It's still on my list of things to do, and 
I will get to it (promise!). You can email me directly at 
djoham[at]yahoo[dot]com every once in a while for status updates. 
 
Please mark this bug as a duplicate 
 
Best regards, 
 
David
