GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 109787
Pasting URL does not open a selected link
Last modified: 2009-08-15 18:40:50 UTC
To test this: - Type a URL (any URL) in a terminal - Select the URL - Paste the URL in galeon using the middle button In previous versions, Galeon would open the link. Now, nothing happens. It works in Mozilla 1.3. I'm using Mandrake 9.1.

Actually it should open the selected url in mew window/tab. Make sure you _have_ and active selection, depending on the kind of terminal you are using there maight problems with the encoding...
See bug 109551 - Middle click pasting is now totally gone from CVS.
Ok, I don't know. I'd tried it a number of times and had the behaviour. Now I'm trying to reproduce it on two machines and I can't. Never mind, then.
