Description Panos Kavalagios 2009-07-14 10:44:42 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE 4.2.4)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Fedora RPMs

A confirm() javascript method called to display a sentence more than 100 characters long, displays a popup with the message cut off having three dots "..." in the middle.

Lorem ipsum example code of 200 characters:

<script type="text/javascript">
confirm('In hac habitasse platea dictumst. Cras turpis tellus, faucibus at imperdiet quis, hendrerit at velit. Maecenas id ligula mi. Mauris lacinia dignissim condimentum. Morbi lobortis dui nec turpis nullam.');
</script>

Message displayed in Konqueror:

In hac habitasse platea dictumst. Cras turpis tellus, ...im condimentum. Morbi lobortis dui nec turpis nullam.

Other browsers behaviour is to display the full message:

It might be the same case in alert() javascript function as well, but for the confirm() you need to read the full message first in order to decide if you are going to proceed or not.
