So, you think that a web client must be able to handle any URL ? I find this a little strange, but I do not have any other arguments if you disagree (and you are the maintainer :-) ), so I will give you the point. I would think you try to run a web client on http(s)? URL, a mail client on mailto URL, a error message on svn+ssh URL, ... > When you click on a mailto:-URL in Konqueror, does it open a mailclient? No idea. I close konqueror when it opens :-) I never use it (but to test some webpages sometimes) >> PS: how the web client is chosen ?

(Iceweasel is my default browser in Gnome) In my opinion, either you should detect the correct default browser for the current user (if possible) or you should ask him (as you do for the mail client to use to send the bug report : I find this very well done). You cannot rely on a system-wide configuration option (several users on the same computer can use different browsers, especially if some are running Gnome and other KDE) Best regards, Vincent > > Cheers, > > Bastian >
