Bug#238463: konqueror: Should redirect internally not via meta refresh
Followup-For: Bug #238463
Package: konqueror
Version: 4:3.5.3-2
*** Please type your report below this line ***
For me info:/ln leads the following page (HTML source):
<html><head><title>Doing redirection</title>
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;
url=info:coreutils/ln%20invocation">
<body>
<h1>Redirecting .... </h1>
<p>If you are not automatically taken to a new page, <a
href="info:coreutils/ln%20invocation">click here</a> to continue.
</body>
</html>
The problem with this is that it requires (1) either an extra click form the
user or (2) configure konqueror to allow automatic refresh via meta tags.
The problem with (2) is that the setting applies to all web pages (which I
personally do not want). Also note that the HTML standard [1] discourages
using <meta http-equiv="refersh" ...> for redirection.
So I think the proper solution should be an internal redirection.
Best wishes,
Gabor Braun
