Version: (using KDE 4.1.3) Compiler: GCC 4.3.2 (Gentoo 4.3.2 p1.0) C(XX)FLAGS: -march=core2 -O2 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer OS: Linux Installed from: Gentoo Packages KHTML sets the background color to the theme color, but forces the foreground color to black. This causes serious readibility issues when using a dark theme. Steps to reproduce: * Set a dark theme * load an HTML file containing the following, or similar: <html> <head> <title>test<title> </head> <body> TESTING!! </body> </html>
This is still in 4.3 svn. Can someone fix this soon? This can't be a real big fix, can it? It appears this has been around for an incredibly long time. Bug 10441 describes the same issue and has been around for over 8 years.
Konqueror 4.2.98 and KDE 4.2.98 (4.3 RC3); still can't properly use it as a browser with a black background as website text also defaults to black. (I wish KDE/Konq/KHTML had web-specific background and text colours -- independent of those used elsewhere in KDE. Even *IF* Konqueror used my KDE-wide white-on-black text, there'd still be way too many websites that rely on bright backgrounds in other ways.)
