I'm using Midori, A WebkitGtk-based browser. I reported this bug, where I was told to report it to Webkit: https://bugs.launchpad.net/midori/+bug/1032973 about:version contents: Version numbers in brackets show the version used at runtime.

I'm not sure how this can be a WebKit problem. Can you give a few more details? - What's your keyboard layout? - How do you type the tilde? - Does it fail only in the URL bar or also in other text fields? - Does it happen in other GTK+ applications? Thanks!

Sorry, I was reading too fast. So you can actually type it in the URL bar. Do you have problems with accents or other symbols?

No, e.g. é or ê can be typed without an issue

(In reply to comment #3) > No, e.g. é or ê can be typed without an issue Does not look like a WebKit bug, seems a problem with your environment

I also can't reproduce that problem here, I tried with Midori 0.4.3, GtkLauncher and MiniBrowser. It works fine in all cases. Do you still have that problem? Can you try with a different version of Midori, or some other webkit-based browser?

I tried Epiphany on the same system with the same result. Typing ~ works in Firefox, though. The error did not occur using Midori 0.5.5 on Ubuntu 13.04 Command line midori Midori midori-granite-0.5.5+r6390 ((null)) GTK+ 3.6.4 (3.6.4) Glib 2.36.0 (2.36.0) WebKitGTK+ 1.10.2 (1.10.2) libSoup 2.40.3 cairo 1.12.14 (1.12.14) libnotify 0.7.5 gcr No granite 0.2.2 Platform X11; Linux i686 Identification Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux) AppleWebKit/537.6 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/18.0.1025.133 Safari/537.6 Midori/0.5 Video Formats H264 [x] Ogg Theora [x] WebM [x] Looks like it's resoled now
