Hello,

The survey was tested on Konqueror by the technical team at UNU-Merit and
confirmed that it works properly before the launch.

I will find out more about the comment in the survey discussion page which
talks about the problem with Konqueror.

Thanks.

Whoever is using Konqueror needs to step out of the 1990s... ;-)

Hm? Konqueror is fully modern, if somewhat obscure, browser. The HTML
engine from Konqueror, KHTML, is the basis of Webkit which the web
engine underlying safari and Google chrome. It's one of the more
reliable and standards compliant browsers out there, although it's not
so widely used.

I don't use it, but I know people that do…

For me it won't even show common extended Latin characters (specifically æ,
ø and å) on standards-compliant web pages with correct encoding and
everything, a problem I used to have in IE and Netscape in the 90s. But
well, not really my problem. ;-)

I think that this is a particular localization problem of the system
which is running that Konqueror. All KDE applications are dealing fine
with Unicode since KDE2. (But, I am not actively using them.)

It is also about as nimble and light footed as an elephant
carrying a platform with a chorus line posing on it atop
its back...
