[Bug] PWA not showing alert and downloaded item if using Whatsapp

[silverknightone]

I have try PWA on new Vivaldi version 4.3.2439.44 (Stable channel) (64-bit)

I try use it for whatsapp web apps. When i download item from chat, it not showing downloaded file to open.

Beside that, when i use it for my own apps, PWA not show javascript alert.

I hope it will be fixed soon.

Thanks

@doctorg

This step will reproduce the issue, i have do clear cache, reinstall vivaldi, but still the issue is persist.

Step :

1. Open https://www.w3schools.com/jsref/tryit.asp?filename=tryjsref_alert
2. When you click 'Try it', it will show javascript alert.
3. Right click on w3shool tab, and choose 'Create a Shortcut...'
4. Check open as window and then click Create
5. Now click 'Try it' on the w3school PWA window. It will not show javascript alert.

I have try it using Edge and Chrome, the PWA version still show javascript alert. but on vivaldi PWA, it not show anything.

I hope the step is pretty clear.
