Version: 2.5.4 (using KDE KDE 3.5.4) Installed from: SuSE RPMs OS: Linux When kate loads a file from an url, it requests it with the HTTP accept string: text/html, image/jpeg, image/png, text/*, image/*, */* I would prefer to have text/xml in that list and remove the image entries.
Kate doesn't do anything special. If this still persisits in KDE 4 it's probably a KIO issue
Works for me in KDE Frameworks 5.45.
