Version: 3.97.1 (KDE 4.0 >= 20071206) (using KDE 3.97.1 (KDE 4.0 >= 20071206), compiled sources) Compiler: gcc OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.23.1-tmb-desktop-1mdv It seems like there is no way of viewing a site's HTTPS certificate in trunk. This is security-critical, so I consider this a show stopper.
Seems like KHTMLPart somehow isn't providing the "security" action.
George, your r482909 caused this. I'd appreciate if you explained whether this is intentional or not, and if so why.
I did that because it's ugly, confusing, redundant, and should have been cleanly fixed for 4.0
Well, but that didn't happen... And IMHO showing it the way it is in KDE3.x at least lets one see the organization name, the hostname, etc. The reason I noticed that is that I got a warning on a google site(!), and wanted to see what was up, but had zero way of looking at things. Obviously, focusing on high-assurance stuff is far more user-friendly and less likely to outright fail, but since it's not there...
Actually, how a user can view certificate information?

Bug is still here on kde 4.1 beta2 :(
I sometimes get a green shield icon in the address bar with kdelibs r822325, but it has no tool tip, no click action, and doesn't always show up for the same site. I don't know what the green icon is supposed to mean, nor what triggers it.
Kde 4.0.84 has this bug still active
http://lists.kde.org/?l=kde-commits&m=121540368300384&w=2
On kde 4.1rc1 tagged today bug is still active. :(
There is still at least one more bug here: If I type "https://conary.rpath.com/conary/" into the address bar and hit enter, I don't get the green icon. Once I click on one of the links though, it's there. Note that /conary/ redirects you to /conary/browse. The next time I visit the page, the icon is there also, unless I quit konqueror and restart. This is with KDE 4.1 RC1
Kde 4.1 rc1+ Bug is still not fixed:on some sites for example https://servizi.quirinale.it/webmail/ works,appear a green icon and show certificate. On other sites like https://www.poste.it/online/personale/myposte show nothing,i don't see any certificate autority like on firefox and konqueror3 on konqueror4.
Reopening based on comment #13, comment #14 and comment #15.
Tested the provided websites (comment #14 and #13) Konqueror in current trunk shows the right informations. Someone else can confirm it?
The provided sites seem to work, yes, but I tried some other https sites, and found that this one http://www.mbnet.pt doesn't work when you access it via this url -- if you access the https site directly, https://www.mbnet.pt/MBNet.html , it works ; the http version forwards you to the https one, and that seems to be breaking it.
I confirm comment #18 with current trunk (r898537).

Similar behavior with 4.2.0 on Gentoo.
4.3.4...some sites(expecially with long adress) don't display the green shield! :(
Problem still exists with 4.3.5. This is a *VERY SERIOUS BUG* that I hope will garner some serious attention from developers. This is more than just a cosmetic problem. Users absolutely need to be able to trust their browser to reflect the security state of web sites. I can't even use (trust) Konqueror for e-commerce due to this problem and am instead forced to use Firefox. As much fanfare as Firefox gets in the open-source community, Konqueror remains KDE's browser. Serious bugs like this one lying unattended for years is incredibly disappointing.
