I have a problem with the online dictionary "Diccionario de la Real Academia Española" (RAE) when calling it from KDE apps that's not present when using firefox or Chromium.

If you write on the address bar

rae.es/<a Spanish word>

it should open the online dictionary with the definition. For example, try

rae.es/diccionario

on Firefox and will work without problems, but if I try this on Konqueror or rekonq I get an error, then if immediately after the error I issue the same string a second time, it works. But if I wait some minutes it fails again.

I get the same problem with qRAE app or raecas plasmoid: first time, error, second time, it loads.

Also, it is not possible to use accented words from konqueror with KHTML, for example

rae.es/definición

will work on firefox or chromium, even on rekonq (when the page loads) but not on konqueror: when the page load (on the second attempt) it informs me that the word "definición" do not exists on the dictionary...

I'm using KDE SC 4.10.3 on openSUSE 12.3, 64 bits, but this happened on older versions too. Note, this time I have a completely new user, so there is nothing to reset.

Any idea? Thanks!

I'm using 4.11b2 and Rekonq 2.3.2 and it works for me in both Rekonq and in Konqueror accents and not

re accent in Konq: are you using Webkit or Khtml in Konq? I believe Khtml doesn't work with accents, at least in my test

I just dl'ed and installed the raecas plasmoid and tested with your 2 examples and both worked fine the first time

no idea if this is because I'm running 4.11b2 or something else unfortunately

I tested on my system (somewhere around KDE 4.10 Beta I think) and I can confirm the results of google01103.

The only thing that didn't is the accents in the URL when using KHTML (it works fine when using the Webkit backend). This is rather unusual as they are both supposed to share the HTTP backend, which is in KIO - and hints at a bug in KHTML itself.

Don't ask me why, but since a couple of months everything is working as it should. No idea what changed, but it's working.
