Request: remember resend request #1466

Open Niklas81 opened 9 years ago

Niklas81 commented 9 years ago

When searching using POST-method on engines like duckduckgo.com, if you click one of the search results, and then go back to to the search-engine using the back-button, you get a dialog box with the usual "To display this page, QupZilla must resend the request (such as a search or order confirmation) that was performed earlier.". This is all nice and good, as things should work. But could you please add a checkbox with the option of "always aprove this for this domain". It's most annoying having to click this box all day!

Look at how Firefox or Chromium works. I'm not even sure you get this dialog there (or I've already checked that box for duckduckgo.com there).

Also, this should also include a manager under the settings-menu, from where you can un-rember which domains have this permission. This is less important.

Could you please check your duckduckgo-configuration for privacy as shown in this screenshot? I have configured to use GET requests:

Similar issues are #1079 and #911. Please note, that the support for POST method in search engines manager has been introduced in version 1.6.0.

You might check as well, if you configured the support of POST data in the search engines manager. I do not use it, though.

The idea here is to use POST rather than GET for privacy reasons, my problem is not that I dunno how to switch back to the default GET-setting. How do you set up Qupzilla to use POST in the search field?

Anyway, I prefer using the search website rather than the browser function to search. The feature as I have described it is available in major browsers. I don't see why it couldn't be implemented in Qupzilla, which to me is otherwise the fastest and hence best browser for everyday use. I'm just trying to point out one of its rough edges.

@nowrep and @pejakm: Could someone of you please try to reproduce this? I never get the dialog To display this page,...

Step-by-step-procedure:

(1) Go to duckduckgo.com (2) Go to https://duckduckgo.com/settings (3) Verify, that the POST requests are enabled

post

(4) Click Save and Exit (5) Enter "qupzilla" in the search field (6) Click on the first search result (http://www.qupzilla.com/) (7) http://www.qupzilla.com/ will open (8) Go back (9) No dialog

I have tried this with a private window as well. Even using startpage.com as another example does not bring this dialog.

Tested with: Application version: 1.8.0 (135514379b) Qt version: 5.4.0 WebKit version: 538.1 Build time: Sep 27 2014 10:25:06 Platform: openSUSE Tumbleweed (Linux)

Hm, I can't reproduce it anymore either - now it works as I'd like! :) Did someone fix this without telling? :D
