If being lenient with URLs which do not start with http:// is the idea, then webbrowser module can do explicitly add that. Having a default protocol option in the open method and we can set it to 'http'. Many WWW browsers do that. But, I agree that it should not be related to Windows file-browser behavior (for whatever it's behavior is). _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
