Hello :)
I'm using KDE 3.1.5 on Debian sid, but this same behaviour has been
experienced on KDE 3.2.0.
Starting with no Konq windows open, I browse to
http://www.oursite.com/admin/ and I am prompted to enter a 'group
number' from an HTTP form. I do so, and am redirected to another script
which prompts me for my HTTP username/password. I enter said details and
am shown the 'admin area' for that group.
I use the 'back' button to return to the HTTP 'group number' form and
enter a different group number. I now have a white screen because the
'admin script' realises the HTTP user/password does not match this group
number (yes it should show me an HTML error page...)
So far, everything is working as designed :)
Now the problem - if I open a SECOND Konqueror window, and browse to the
same 'Admin group number' page, and enter a different number, this NEW
window also shows me a white screen - i.e. it does *not* pop up a new
Username/Password dialog.
Personally I believe this to be incorrect and illogical, since a 'new
window' should clear any previously held authentication data.
Since I can see no GUI configuration element to change this Konqueror
behaviour, would editing an ".ini" help, or is this hard-coded in the
source?
I'm presently working around this by getting people to run a copy of
Mozilla when they want to work on a second admin group - but this is
hardly desirable :(
Any solutions / comments would be warmly received!
Cheers,
Gavin.
