Package: devhelp
Version: 0.19.1-5
Severity: minor
Hi,
we can now browse w3-recs from within devhelp (bug #446876), and it's really
cool.
Some links of w3-recs html files are relatives; some are absolute, and point
to http:// urls. When activating those links, devhelps popups an alert
telling "http is not a registered protocol", and link cannot be followed. It's
quite frustrating, especially when we known that devhelp embeds web-browser
libraries. Here is a patch enabling http browsing inside devhelp.
