Gmail, Konqueror, Firefox, and OSS
Gmail is an oft-used, web-based, e-mail management system. The inner workings of Gmail are proprietary but definately NOT standards-based.
Firefox is an open source web browser that displays no problems, of which the author is aware, interacting with Gmail. Anyone can view the workings of this program.
Konqueror is also an open source web browser that does display problems interacting with Gmail. Specifically, in navigating to the Settings page.
Do the people currently working on the Gmail-compatibility of Konqueror know this? They can compare the code for Firefox to the code for Konqueror, note the differences and then transfer the Gmail-friendliness of Firefox to Konqueror.
These may be obvious questions with even more obvious answers, but the author of this e-mail doesn't know if the issue has ever been considered in these terms. In no way am I trying to be rude, but only to understand.
Thanks, Bob
