There's something very odd about the whole subject. I appear to have exactly the opposite of you - javascript sites work fine in Konqueror but not in Mozilla or Galeon - or at least some forms of javascript. Similarly with the fonts problem - most of the time I get kde-type font display, but sometimes get the ugly gnome-type display - even in the same circumstances, like, for instance, opening File Manager SuperUser. I'm beginning to think that it is a 'feature' and that we are all looking for work-arounds that may be specific to our own particular blend of install/applications.

[newbie] Konqueror 2.2.1 Javascript problems
I'm using the Konqueror web browser from the Mandrake 8.1 installation (KDE 2.2.1) and have several sites on the WWW that won't work when the Javascript option in Konqueror is on. One of those is my bank from which I do my on-line bill paying. Netscape works OK on those sites but I'd like to fix Konqueror -- if a fix is available. Is it? Thanks!

I downloaded Sun's jre-1.3.1 Java Runtime Environment script and opened it in my /home/dennis directory then in Konquerorconfigure konquerorbrowser at the bottom where it typically just shows java I click on the browse button and navigate to the location in my home directory and click there to link it to the konqueror browser.
