I know...and I sometime over react..I guess it's the pent up frustrations of an ex-OS/2 user in me that just gets really pissed off that I have found another environment that I like and this MS bullshit starts again. OS/2 users didn't have the mass backing that Linux enjoys..and I just want people to stick together so that we don't have this unsupported ( no games..commercial apps..etc..etc) shit happen to yet another environment that is way better then any MS crap. Make sense? ->[1] konqueror should learn to appear as NS, IE or Mozilla and this ->particular problem is gone. It use to be able to have the user agent hardcoded into it so it would say it was IE 5.X or Netscape 4.X ... whatever the user wanted..but the KDE guys felt it would be better to put it as a site by site user string. Which A. Doesn't work and hasn't since they switched. B. Doesn't matter if the user wants one damn string vs. one for each site. Why can't it do both. I have talked at length with Waldo Bastian about it..and he said it was discussed for a while on the KDE lists. Most developers have this mistaken notion that Web Developers give a shite about supporting anyting but IE ...and they often bitch about supporting Netscape. Does anyone thing they will even know what Konqueror is 9-10 times..hell no. And I can never get the user agent to change what it sends out. I have specified a string for different sites...and when I get rejected..it says that Konqueror 5 is not supported. I think that it would be a good thing to let the KDE developers know that we want the hardcode feature back..I don't care if in webstatics it says I was a Windows 2000 user of IE...I just want to view websites. -- Ben Rosenberg mailto:ben@whack.org ----- "They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety." -Benjamin Franklin
