AdWords "System Down" error
- Posted by Rob (#1) on July 29, 2006 19:11 CEST
Well, this is certainly a new experience for me:
AdWords is down for scheduled maintenance, but Firefox isn't quite capable of showing a decent error message here, all I see is what appears to be XML mixed with a weird UTF-8 character. What the page actually should say (Konqueror works fine):
AdWords is temporarily down due to system maintenance until approximately 4:00pm PST on 29th July. Please note that your campaigns are running normally during this short downtime. We apologise for any inconvenience.
UTF-8 problems in Konqueror, now also in Firefox. What's a man supposed to do? Download MSIE for Linux?

Konqueror xmlHttpRequest bug
- Posted by Rob (#1) on July 23, 2006 16:35 CEST
This really sucks: Konqueror eats characters from user input in xmlHttpRequest POST data, when the input contains UTF-8 characters. I filed a bug report and created a test-case, but as long as this isn't resolved I can't remove my workarounds in Kiki, which upon further investigation turns out to be rather limited.

Google Searchbar Madness
- Posted by Rob (#1) on September 20, 2004 20:34 CEST
Well, the fifth session of a dozen tries seems to have resolved my issues with the Google searchbar: my KDE and Konqueror are free of bloat again (I prefer IKWS). Still wondering what caused the first 59 times to fail though, that's a pretty nasty bug. KDE disagreed with me so much that it almost felt like I was using Windows again.
I wonder when we upgrade to the A9 toolbar.
