Description Torsten Eichstädt 2013-03-08 12:50:06 UTC
and thus the search results are not readable, i.e. you see only a few words and lines and have to scroll around.  Noone does that, thus you receive too many duplicates.
If this would be fixed, it would be much easier for the average users to find duplicates themselves.  If they already came so far, it means there's some engagement.

It happens with konqueror (KHTML).  I think I remember it is shown correctly with rekonq -- but rekonq has far more crashes than konqueror, that's why many people do not install it and have konqueror as their default browser.

I filed this bug some time ago, it was closed because it's a bug not in the web page, but somewhere else.

I would like to kindly ask to re-open the bug and do a work-around in the web page's HTML code so that any KDE app using KDE HTML-render does show this page correctly.

Thank you very much.

Please provide a screenshot of this, I could not reproduce using either the KHTML or Webkit backends for Konqueror.

It would be nice if you have mentioned the old report clearly in the first place. That reduces communication cost.
Comment 4 Torsten Eichstädt 2013-03-10 04:23:58 UTC
Sorry.  I did not have the idea to search for "my bugs", that would have been easy.
BUT:  I tried to find the old report: when I searched for "box too small" -- well, guess what happened?! ;) _self_.shoot('foot', into)
Comment 5 Torsten Eichstädt 2013-03-10 04:38:34 UTC
+ the old bug report is not there anymore! Maybe because it was closed?
Anyway: should s/th like this happen again, I'll try harder to find the bug#, and if I don't find it, this will be the _1st_ sentence, in capital letters:
 I filed this bug some time ago, it was closed because it's a not a bug in XYZ, but in ABC.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Ahh, and I forgot: this also happened under Linux, so it cannot be specifically to FreeBSD.  And I think I remember the bug report was filed to KHTML, and those filed it to Qt.  No guarantees whatsoever.
Comment 7 Torsten Eichstädt 2013-03-10 05:18:26 UTC
... and I would not have been able to find it without an advanced search.  I had a saved advanced search "My bugs", but that shows only open bugs.  I was not aware of that, I thought maybe the # of results is limited to 20 in general.

Now I have a better saved search "My bug reports" that gives me a loooong list of all bugs I reported including closed, and there it is, striked trough!  Thanx 4 the hint.

This means the bug came back in again?  Strange.
Comment 8 Jekyll Wu 2013-03-11 09:31:10 UTC
[Off topic]

By default, the bugzilla search only considers open reports. You can ask it to also consider closed reports by changing  status field, then save that search as "All My Bugs" for further usage.
Comment 9 Ben Cooksley 2013-03-12 19:37:40 UTC
Which version of KDE are you using? I am still unable to reproduce this - I suspect it is a KHTML bug which has since been fixed.
Comment 10 Torsten Eichstädt 2013-03-13 06:37:44 UTC
KDE-4.9.5

See also:
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=307109 and https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=300705

From what I understand the bug has been fixed and came back in the released sources?
Things like that happen sometimes, it's not excact science to jingle with versions and releases ...
Comment 11 Ben Cooksley 2013-03-14 10:05:11 UTC
There is nothing we can do about it in the bugs.kde.org code if this is a KHTML bug.
I would suggest updating to KDE 4.10...
