Browse to a local file:// .html file, use HTML Settings to disable JavaScript, a local web page, same file, following a link to another local file, reloading, will enable JavaScript again, konqueror 4.4.5 did not do this. It seems to generally enable again for web pages from a host as well, but I've seen it not enable again there as well. This bug combined with #72811 "Don't ask users to accept cookies without domain" (see comment "2012-01-09 23:02:15 UTC"), and the cookies settings 'Enable Cookies, Only accept cookies from originating server, Ask for confirmation', make for a very painful looking at any web page that uses javascript to request cookies, because anytime you go to another page it prompts to accept a dozen cookies, for each load no matter if you say accept or reject or for all from this domain (which is empty). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Browse to a local file:// .html file 2.Tools > HTML Settings > [disable] JavaScript 3.click on a link to another local file:// .html file 4. observe JavaScript is now enabled, Tools > HTML Settings > JavaScript Actual Results: observe JavaScript is now enabled, Tools > HTML Settings > JavaScript Expected Results: JavaScript still disabled (this Tab/Window), until I enable it again
Dear Bug Submitter, This bug has been stagnant for a long time. Could you help us out and re-test if the bug is valid in the latest version? I am setting the status to NEEDSINFO pending your response, please change the Status back to REPORTED when you respond. Thank you for helping us make KDE software even better for everyone!
I set the Konqueror view mode for WebKit, in Tools > HTML settings > uncheck JavaScript, reload while I'm on a local webpage that has JavaScript, the first refresh shows the page as if JavaScript didn't run, but the Tools HTML Settings > JavaScript is checked, reload again and the page displays with JavaScript enabled. Set Konqueror view mode for KHTML, in Tools > HTML Settings > uncheck JavaScript, reload page and the page displays with JavaScript enabled and switches back to WebKit. tested with, KDE 4.14.26 Konqueror 4.14.25
Thanks for the update!
