GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 75638
Relative links (most links) don't work

For example, open http://bugzilla.gnome.org in Nautilus. Click any link. You'll get the message: Couldn't display "http://bug-howto.html", because no host "bug-howto.html" could be found. Check that the spelling is correct and that your proxy settings are correct. oops.
Bumping up the priority. If Nautilus is going to be a web browser, this has to work.
Just thought i'd comment, galeon is being ported to gnome2 right now and it will have a nautilus view. i'm also pretty sure it's going to be able to use either mozilla or gtkhtml as the rendering agent.
also, my guess is that this is a bug with gtkhtml view not sending the correct url information to nautilus.
Pretty sure (and someone /please/ correct me if I'm wrong) that this is not a high priority for 2.0, esp. if (1) we have a good galeon component on the way and (2) this didn't work in 1.4 either.
*** Bug 80497 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Just tested and work fine with nautilus 2.4 and gtkhtml 2.4.1 on a Debian unstable, this bug could be probably closed.
Nautilus 2.7.2 won't open 'http://bugzilla.gnome.org' - Epiphany has no problems following the links. Should this be closed?
nautilus is a file-browser, http page are opened in the web browser now, bug closed
