Could you be a bit more specific?  Which version konq and what is your
uagent.  I've tried konq-3.3.2 with ua mozilla-1.2.1 (Mozilla/5.0
(Linux; U; en_US; rv:1.2.1) Gecko/20021130) and gmail says it's not
fully supported .. but, ua mozilla-1.6 (Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux
i686; en_US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040113) will show all functions like
mozilla, but the labels don't activate when I click on them with the
mouse.  What is your successful setting?

TIA

As much as Google depends on OSS, in light of the above statement, "Don't Be 
Evil" is starting to look pretty disingenuous.

Please report problems to bugs.kde.org. Note that right now GMail works best 
when Konqueror uses a Firefox UA-string and then receives the same source as 
Firefox.

Short answer: Impossible

The obvious answer is to write to Google and ask them to fully support 
Konqueror. While you are at it ask them to send Konqueror crap in Blogger, 
and add us to the list of working browsers in maps.google.com.

Unfortunately Google is more or less unreachable. Even as KHTML developer I've 
been unable to obtain any reply let alone help from Google.

GMail has worked fine in Konqueror since KDE 3.4.0.

Gmail, Konqueror, Firefox, and OSS

2005-08-05 Thread
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
