Description Stephan Sokolow 2006-08-14 12:55:32 UTC
Version:           3.5.2 (using KDE 3.5.2, Gentoo)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.4.5 (Gentoo 3.4.5-r1, ssp-3.4.5-1.0, pie-8.7.9)
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.16-gentoo-r9-20060701

Konqueror's ability to enable JS on a per-site basis doesn't allow wildcards. This makes it useless for anyone who regularly uses sites like deviantart which use subdomains heavily.

I use deviantART as an example for two reasons. First, it's a very well-known and popular site. Second, every user's page is it's own subdomain.

C'mon guys. Let's get more votes on this.

The whitelisting feature is nearly useless to me until this problem is fixed and, now that Jikto has proven how dangerous untrusted JS could potentially be, I'd really like to start doing some whitelisting.

(I use a lot of sites which use subdomains the way deviantART does)
Comment 2 Stephan Sokolow 2007-04-02 09:02:33 UTC
Well, looks like I was mistaken. It does support wildcards, but in a very un-intuitive (and apparently, undocumented and relatively little-known) fashion.

When I was typing "*.deviantart.com" and "rs*.rapidshare.com", I should have been typing ".deviantart.com" and filing a bug about the limitations and relative secrecy of existing wildcard support.

Can I get this changed to a feature request named "Better wildcard support for Konqueror's ability to whitelist JS" or should I close this and open a new one?
