And I also know the problem with the second URL. KFM renders this page correctly except the images for some links. This is due to a previously reported bug that was discussed in this list before. The author of the page uses that weird but valid URL format. As an example, here is one of the links on the page Opera khtmlw ( and khtml <- I am not sure since I have not checked it ) interpret the address in HREF as a relative URL. Hence, the base or the document URL is incorrectly applied to obtain the absolute path. Actually, this problem looks like the failing of KURL as it does not correctly recognize such URL(s). Anyway, if you put your mouse over this link ( first one on the page ), the status bar displays the location as http://www.glinx.com/www.operasoftware.com This can easily be patched as I have done with minicli (kdebase/kwm/minicli.C ) and am going to do for kfm's location box. However, I have to find out where khtml and khtmlw deal with links in order to try and fix it. Moreover, IMHO the long term solution should be to fix KURL instead of all the application that make use of it ...
