Forum:Seeing double in Konqueror

I would like to document a few glitches that occur while browsing Wikia using Konqueror 3.5.7. I know that most of these glitches do not happen in Firefox. I have not checked if any of these glitches is already reported in MediaWiki's bugzilla or Inside Wikia's forums. I would like if we could fix any of these. (You may reply below this paragraph, below each glitch paragraph, or at page bottom.) --Kernigh 23:27, 4 January 2008 (UTC)


 * Glitch that provides double hash marks in section redirect : The above screenshot shows Konqueror 3.5.7 visiting w:c:NetHack:Dexterity. "Dexterity" is a section redirect to "Attribute#Dexterity". Something (probably a JavaScript) is trying to send me to the Dexterity section of the Attribute page, but it puts "##Dexterity" instead of "#Dexterity" in the URL. Thus I arrive at the top of the page, not the section. This is not a regression; I remember when MediaWiki did not support section redirects.


 * Glitch that provides two sets of blue buttons : When editing a wiki page in Konqueror, I may see not only one, but two sets of blue buttons above the editor. I wonder if this glitch is related to the "##Dexterity" glitch. Luckily, both sets of buttons work perfectly. The glitch only happens on some Wikia. Monobook wikis like NetHack and Documentation give me two sets of buttons, but Egamia and His Dark Materials give me one set (though that set is the last thing on the page to load). I noticed that Central Wikia also gives me exactly one set of blue buttons, along with a "make a map" link (that shows a Google map).
 * This his happening everywhere and maybe in every browsers. I have them in IE7 on most wikia other than Central. It's has been reported many times there : Forum:MediaWiki 1.12 upgrade. — TulipVorlax 00:08, 5 January 2008 (UTC)




 * Glitch in "top content" widget : So Wikia like Egamia and HDM have a very nice "top content" widget. The above screenshot does not show the glitch, but I was trying to use menu to switch from "Newly changed" to "Most popular". The first time I use the menu, the widget loads "Most popular" but then snaps back to showing "Newly changed". The second time I use the menu, the switch is permanent. In general, I have to do double work with the menu to switch this widget from one list to another. Interestingly, the "top content" widget at Star Wars does not have this glitch. Someone only needs to fix the Egamia/HDM widgets to work like the Wookieepedia widget.
 * I can second that, at least in IE6.5 --Ciencia Al Poder (talk) -WikiDex 11:59, 6 January 2008 (UTC)


 * Glitch in user drop-menu : Above left screenshot shows user drop-menu at Egamia. I click Kernigh, and this menu appears; that is good. Above right screenshot shows user drop-menu at Wookieepedia. I point mouse cursor, it turns into finger, and I start clicking, but no drop-menu appears. The Egamia/HDM menus once had the same problem, but someone fixed it. We just need to include the same fix in Wookieepedia.
