Description Bernhard Rosenkraenzer 2002-02-21 13:11:54 UTC
Description of Problem:  
The JavaScript stuff checks for Netscape and M$IE only, causing the drop-down menus not to 
work with Konqueror. 
 
Telling Konqueror to identify itself as Netscape 4.76 works around the problem (the 
dropdown menus actually work with Konqueror 3), but we shouldn't expect our customers to 
do that.  
  
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):  
2002/02/21 
  
How Reproducible:  
100% 
  
Steps to Reproduce:  
1. Access www.redhat.com with Konqueror 3, watch dropdown menus not working 
2. Tell Konqueror to identify itself as Netscape 
3. Repeat step 1 and watch it work 
  
  
Additional Information:  
The browser ID for Konqueror is 
 
Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Konqueror/x.xx; Linux) 
Versions where x.xx is >= 2.90 can display Netscape'ish JavaScript dropdown menus.

Comment 1 Bernhard Rosenkraenzer 2002-04-08 10:32:43 UTC
Problem still present. Any news on this?
I keep getting Konqueror bug reports about this while it's in fact a bad
Javascript assumption.
