Description Hartmut Meyer 2005-08-20 14:52:21 UTC 
konqueror display the German version of www.novell.com 
 
Changing the language (not in konqueror - on the www.novell.com language 
selector menu) to English does not have any effect. 
 
This was already not working with 9.3 (and konqueror). 
 
Firefox works fine.

ok, it tries to set a cookie for .novell.com, but we parse it as 
www.novell.com, and then the javascript stuff on the page explodes.  
 
sounds like an easy fix..
Comment 2 Dirk Mueller 2005-08-23 01:57:32 UTC 
FIXED
Comment 3 Hartmut Meyer 2005-08-23 08:00:26 UTC 
Could we have this fixed for 9.3 as well (say with the next needed update of 
the effected package)? 
 
It's kind of embarrising that our standard browser cannot correctly display 
our own home page ...
Comment 4 Dirk Mueller 2005-08-23 11:26:12 UTC 
aj? 
 
another solution would be to fix the website instead. it relies on a very 
obscure edge case of RFC2965 (one that was even forbidden in earlier 
versions).
Comment 5 Andreas Jaeger 2005-08-23 11:43:34 UTC 
If there's another update going out, we could add it, no problem.  But I don't
think we should do a release just for this.
Comment 6 Dirk Mueller 2005-08-23 16:08:43 UTC 
submitted a package for 9.3
Comment 7 Hartmut Meyer 2005-09-05 15:47:23 UTC 
still there with beta4
Comment 8 Dirk Mueller 2005-09-05 21:42:49 UTC 
I tested it with a plain b4plus installation, works
