Version: 1.6.1 (using KDE 4.6.2) OS: Linux If you enter a URL in the file upload dialog it says "Remote files not accepted, You can only select local files".(Tested with Firefox & ReKonq) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Navigate to any webpage that has a file input form. Click browse, open or whatever the webpage calls it. Enter a URL in the Name field and click open. Actual Results: An popup appears which says "Remote files not accepted, You can only select local files" Expected Results: It should download the file to tmp and then upload it.
Firefox is not a KDE program, report it there separately. Reassigning to rekonq.
This is a dupe of another bug and it has just been fixed in 0.8. Sorry, I'm not finding it to mark as duplicate. Closing as fixed
