Konqueror and dynamic loading / deleting of css

Mon Jan 29 13:44:33 GMT 2007

Hi Germaine and anyone else reading,

I retract my bug spot as during an attempt to produce a simple test case, I
discovered the true cause of the problem (cheeks redden slightly).

However,  the cause of the problem still seems to be an inconsistancy in
Konqueror.  It doesn't match code that is inside comments (or doesn't
return the comments when calling innerHTML - can't tell which), whereas
Firefox, Opera, Epiphany and IE6 do.

I've written up a test case, which I've attached here,
but before submitting it as a bug, does anyone know if this has been 
reported?
I have found a similar bug https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=30396
which has been fixed in 2.1.2. but that was some time ago.

Regards

Neill Jones
