Re: webkit in konqueror!

btw.. how can I use the webkit kpart in konqueror?
I installed the library and desktop file (opensuse rpms) but haven't found out how to tell konqueror to use webkit instead of khtml
any hints? |

Just found out... renamed the khtml.desktop and ran kbuildsycoca4 --noincremental.
Konqueror now uses webkit.
Great!
While some large pages (for example www.bild.de) are unbearable slow and buggy in khtml rendering mode (rather unusable), it really flies with webkit! Great :)
Would be nice to see it easily configurable to change to webkit rendering (or even make it default?)

I suppose that webkit integration is not planned to be backported to 4.0.x, so by the time, should webkit kpart be good enought, it may be default, but I don't see why one would urge defaulting to webkit wile it's not close to be released ( as it is available with little tweaks too )
Anyway, I'm starting to use some of KDE4 apps in my KDE3 environement, such as gwenview, dragon player, konqueror and sometimes dolphin.
I just miss kontact before I've 99% of my computer time spent on KDE4 apps ^^
Thanks devs for the progress, and thanks danny for the digest

I hope by the time for release kde 4.1 WebKit part will be in very good shape. I want to see what it can provide me which KHML can not.

Or what it can't provide you with that KHTML can.

Ah, but wouldn't you still use Konqueror, thus still being mistreated by Google's browser check?
Do you think web "developers" will magically learn to check for engines instead of browsers?

Do you mean if I let konqueror pretend like Firefox all the Google applications will work smoothly ?

No.
Try using gmail in konqueror sometime. Its very buggy and not very useful. I love konqueror, but any time I have to log into my gmail account I use firefox.

I haven't seen any bug reports to that effect lately.

I've found I need to spoof as Firefox 1.0.x for Gmail to work correctly. Spoofing as 1.5 or 2.0 doesn't seem to work.

Yes, but when you have the Webkit Kpart enabled, you should better pretend that your're Safari.

but there is no such problem because QtWebKit allways pretends to be Safari running on Mac OS X!
In my logs I see:
"Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X; en) AppleWebKit/523.15 (KHTML, like Gecko) Safari/419.3 Qt"
It's neat because that way all the sites work because they think its Safari on Macintosh!
I wonder why Konqueror developers never thought of that?
Just pretend to be a popular browser and sites work better...

And this means server statistics will show you all as Mac users instead of GNU/Linux users. I don't think that's a good idea, it will destroy our market share estimates completely. As GNU/Linux is rarely sold in retail, the web server statistics are one of the best estimates we can get.

mhm, so that's the reason why apple's releasing safari on windows, to let businesses think they have a bigger marketshare than do actually do...
Well, as long as the sites work properly, and I do believe developers will work better if they have to try to be compatible to three browser engines instead of two, I am glad enough.

Opera is semi-excluded --- they have extensive features to work around broken
sites, in fact.

Systemsettings -> Advanced -> File Associations -> text/html -> Embedding -> Select Webkit -> Move Up (as often as needed) -> Apply.

Some dreaming:
This should have been an URL, so you could click on it and have the lowest possible config page opened... like system://settings/file_associations/text/html/embedding
Or even better a script, that also does the needed actions
#/usr/bin/skript
Object usedComponents =
System.Settings.FileAssociations.text.html.Embedding.UsedComponents;
usedComponents.moveToTop("webkit");
System.Settings.FileAssociations.applyChanges;
Something for another GSoC project?

There is kreadconfig (a command line tool). I've never used it (because I've never had the need of), but maybe it's worth a try.

Do I need to enable an option while compiling? I am using the last qt 4.4 from svn and kde from trunk but do not have that as an option.
