Description Andrey Borzenkov 2010-02-20 07:00:50 UTC
Version:            (using KDE 4.4.0)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Mandriva RPMs

This started to happen somewhere in 4.4 release cycle so for me it is 4.4. vs. 4.3 regression.

I have a link that contains an anchor (i.e. should point inside of referred page). Very often Konqueror position window with such URL not on anchor but usually somewhere below; exact amount of shift varies. This is becoming to really hurt at times as example below shows.

I attach three screenshots. First is original page (http://lwn.net/Articles/372935/) which contains article "Development project priorities"; below as usual is link to comments.

I open comments in new window (tab). Instead of being shown the first comment I am shown some one or two below (see second screen shot).

Next one is even worse. In the above comments there is a link to mailing list archive (http://mailman.videolan.org/pipermail/vlc-devel/2009-September/thread.html#66426) which refers to specific message. Third screen shot demonstrates what I get opening it (new tab again). Instead of being positioned at messages #66426 I am thrown st bottom of the page without any practical way to easily locate message I wanted to see.

You can usually workaround by pressing enter in the location bar again, IIRC

Problem is still present in 4.8.3, but this seems to be a duplicate of bug 196520.

Still not fixed in 4.7.4. To me it's not a duplicate of bug 196520 as it happens not specifically on local files but in general, whenever anchors exists.

It did not reported it sooner because I thought it too obvious not to be fixed ASAP. But it stills there.

It is a duplicate of 196520. There is nothing in that bug report that stated that the issue is limited to local files.
