           Summary: Popup 'Open with' errors when making thumbnails for
                    locally saved html with relative iframe references
           Product: kio
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: thumbnail
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: davidsboogs at gmail.com


Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.5.1) 
OS:                Linux

When I find a neat static page on the web, such as a news article, I frequently
save a local copy, as the web is pretty transient.  When I load a dolphin tab
which lists such a saved page's HTML file, I get pop-up 'Open with' dialogs
whenever it tries to generate a thumbnail for any html file that contains an
iframe tag (which is now pointing to a local directory by reference.)

This is a rather annoying issue since it tries to make a thumbnail any time the
html file is newly listed on screen, the mouse hovers over it, it is selected,
etc.

By the way, may I humbly suggest that it shouldn't try to resolve any non-local
external resources at all for thumbnails.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Using a sufficiently advanced browser that can save a Web Page, Complete (that
is, not Konq) save a page that contains an iframe.  In dolphin settings, make
sure thumbnails are enabled for HTML files.
View the directory that contains the saved html page (and associated page_files
directory)

Actual Results:  
One or more pop-up Open with dialogs, with titles that contain part of the path
to a file referenced in an iframe, and which list themselves as owned by
kio_thumbmail (Yes, it says thumbMail, might want to fix that too.)
Open closing them, generally they pop-up again immediately.  Thankfully they
are non-modal to the dolphin window.  
The thumbnail is of course not generated.

Expected Results:  
A simple thumbnail of the page.
