Description Jorge Adriano 2004-03-15 17:04:50 UTC
Version:           3.2.1 (using KDE 3.2.1, SuSE)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3 20030226 (prerelease) (SuSE Linux)
OS:          Linux (i686) release 2.4.20-4GB-athlon

How to reproduce:
1. Type "www" in the location bar, it shows auto-complete possibilities. 
2. Right click, chose "clear history".
3. Type "www" again, no auto-complete at all, seems fine.
4. Close konqueror, restart konqueror.
5. Type "www", and there they are, the initial auto-complete entries.

It doesn't completely clear for me either. All the entries in the hist. sidebar and combobar are gone, but I can textcomplete a few sites (like, um, bugs.kde.org bugs that weren't open when i closed konqui )

Konqueror merges in the bookmarks into autocompletion. Are you sure you're not seeing that?

You're right... I guess clear history indeed does work for me.

Ah, that might be it. Hmmm, not sure if I like that. Seems like a cool 
feature, but can be pretty bad privacy-wise no?

Closing since it's not a bug after all. 
Like I said though, I have many doubts about this feature. Bookmarks may be revealed at any time and I'm pretty sure many people won't like that.

Then again, there is something wronge here.

This means, no auto-complete entries.

> 4. Close konqueror, restart konqueror. 
> 5. Type "www", and there they are, the initial auto-complete entries.
And in here, auto-complete entries available again.

So one of these must be wrong, right?
There is a bug in here somewhere.


I've just noticed other strange behaviours.
If I type "w", I get about 5 auto-complete entries all starting with "www", and if I type "ww" 2 of them disapear.
