Title:
Hyperlinks that request a new tab don’t open
Status in Oxide Webview:
Fix Released
Status in Web Browser App:
Fix Released
Status in “webbrowser-app” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
[Impact]
In the webbrowser-app, when clicking on a link that is supposed to
open a new window (e.g. href w/ target="_blank" or window.open()),
nothing actually happens.
The fix for the bug is in 2 parts:
- enabling proper popup handling in the webbrowser-app (and handle catching
the creation
signals from oxide and creating the proper extra tab),
- fixing an issue in Oxide that prevented *in some instances* the signal that
requested the new webview corresponding to the navigation to be created NOT to
be sent,
[Test Case]
- Open twitter.com in the webbrowser-app
- Try to click on a link in a tweet
- Result: it should create a new tab in the webbrowser-app with the content
corresponding to the clicked link,
[Regression Potential]
The fixes are mostly centered around the tab creation and navigation
feature in the webbrowser-app. So areas around those would be impacted
(in the handling and creation of those in reaction to the user
clicking)
