Drupal core,
This is currently discusses as a contrib module.
I would want it to work correctly with all the browsers used by significant numbers of Drupal users: Firefox, Konqueror, Safari, Opera, and (unfortunately) Internet Exploder.
Here are the drupal.org browserstats of the current month:
Firefox 58.2 % IE 25.1 % Safari 3.9 % Opera 3.7 % Mozilla 3.2 % Unknown 2.8 % Konqueror 0.9 %
So, the relevance of Konqueror could be argued against.
Cheers, Gerhard
I don't know about their numbers, but jQuery does not consider Konqueror a target browser because its market is so small and none of the core developers use it. Safari is, but not Konqueror. That said, I've found most stuff does work in Konqueror just fine with a few exceptions (like those listed here). I am biased since I use Konqueror myself at home, but a "jqinterface" module that provided a wrapper for the jQuery Interface library would, ideally, fix any outstanding Konqueror bugs. Those fixes would be send back upstream to the jQuery folks. I would be surprised if they didn't accept them, unless they broke something else. (Note: I don't know what the licensing issues there would be with doing that, since Drupal is GPL and jQuery/Interface is MIT/GPL. I'm just pointing out a place where the projects could benefit from each other's slightly different focuses.) -- Larry Garfield AIM: LOLG42 larry@garfieldtech.com ICQ: 6817012 "If nature has made any one thing less susceptible than all others of exclusive property, it is the action of the thinking power called an idea, which an individual may exclusively possess as long as he keeps it to himself; but the moment it is divulged, it forces itself into the possession of every one, and the receiver cannot dispossess himself of it." -- Thomas Jefferson
