Test HTML page

Version:           unspecified (using Devel) 
OS:                Linux

It is possible for a page to be generated dynamically by opening a new window and writing a document using JavaScript.  The "View Document Source" action is available for such a page, but trying to do that displays an error message

  The file 'file:///usr/home/jjm/docs/' could not be opened: it is not a
  normal file, it is a folder.

"OK"-ing that message opens a new blank "Untitled - KWrite" window.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Test case attached.




Suspect that Konqueror is just passing the URL of the page to KWrite - unfortunately in this case there isn't one (or it is blank) and KWrite expands this blank URL to the path of the user's documents folder.

"View Page Source" in Firefox works in this case, and correctly displays the generated HTML.

Cannot reproduce. The test HTML page produces the same result in Firefox and Konqueror with either the webkit or khtml engines in KDE 4.7.4.

Does not work here with current master and KHTML (WebKit seems to have a separate problem for which I will raise another report).  Are you trying to view the source of the popup window HTML (the window with the title "Popup window" that says "Generated content - now try "View Document Source" here")?

Works in rekonq.

Ooops. You are correct. I am wrong. I have no idea what khtml does. I will fix the webkit issue.
