Package: konqueror
Version: 4:3.5.9.dfsg.1-5
Severity: normal

This happens for all SourceForge project sites I have tried, 
but just to be specific I report the problem for
http://sourceforge.net/projects/plplot.  That web page works fine if
you configure javascript globally with the default policies:

Open new window: smart
Resize window: allow
Move window: allow
Focus window: allow
Modify status bar text: allow

However, if I don't enable javascript globally (preferred if you are
security conscious) and enable those same policies just for the
sourceforge.net domain the webpage is rendered quite differently with all
javascript parts (e.g., the adds and the menus for Details, Public, Related,
and News) disabled. I tried setting the above policies specifically or
copied from global, and in desperation (since they are not domains) I also
tried sourceforge.net/ and sourceforge/net/projects/plplot. Note, I also
had cookies set for confirmation (in case some of the ads needed cookies),
but that made no difference, and in any case if there was a cookie problem,
it would have been found by the "enable javascript globally" workaround.

If you can find a way to render http://sourceforge.net/projects/plplot
(or any SourceForge project page) properly using domain-specific javascript
policy settings, that would be great, and I will close this bug report, but
I have tried everything I can think of so I think it must be some konqueror
bug in setting javascript policy for specific domains since
"enable javascript globally" works without problems.

Hi Josh:

Thanks for your konqueror javascript configuration help.  You are right, I
don't want the ads so configuring the combination of static.sourceforge.net
and sourceforge.net domains is perfect for my needs.

I am experienced enough with html that I should have looked at the html
source code myself to figure out the javascript configuration. However, that
is not a viable option for those konqueror users who are not that familiar
with html.  Therefore, I will close this bug ....

OOPS, I sent the above to the wrong address.  This time to
496571-done@bugs.debian.org to properly close it.
