------- Additional comments from [email protected] Mon Apr 20 14:53:24 +0000 2009 ------- If you create a master text document, and include into it one or more sub-documents that are sourced from a WebDAV server over a URL (attempted both http:// and vnd.sun.star.webdav:// links), the sub-document will be imported correctly. However the Navigator side-window will not allow you to double-click on the sub-document, nor click the "Edit" button, to access a read/write version of the sub-document. Double-clicking or clicking the "Edit" toolbar button does nothing at all while the URL-linked sub-document is selected. This problem does not exist if the sub-document is linked in via a file path (z:\...) to the same WebDAV server (NetDrive providing the linkage.) If both URL and path-linked files are included, only the path-linked sub-documents can be opened for editing. It happens regardless of whether or not the WebDAV server is secured. There are no errors reported, and server logs indicate OpenOffice.org is not even attempting to contact it -- it's not because the server is throwing any errors. These same sub-documents can be opened and saved properly if using File->Open... and pasting in the same URL used to link the document into the master document. It does not matter whether the master document was pulled from the WebDAV server or not; the URL's given to it were absolute, and it did succeed in loading them the first time (for inclusion.) The problem only seems to be with the Navigator UI refusing to open the sub-documents when double-clicking/"Edit"-clicking. If that worked, I think the rest would work as well. (This is not a request for the ability to edit sub-documents directly from inside the master document without opening them into their own editor window -- while that would be helpful, it's not a current feature even with local files, so I'm not asking.) Support thread: http://user.services.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?f=30&t=17491&sid=4524bf0528d98bb289d6120826c791aa&p=80535#p80535 (Side-note, possibly a separate bug: "update selection" on URL-linked WebDAV sub-document fails, colors sub-document entry in red, removes text from master document. Re-inserting the document, with the exact same URL, works just fine. Opening the master document the first time works fine too.) I do not know if this is platform- or OS-specific. Tested platform/OS: PC/WindowsXP. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
