Description Cameron Blackwood 2003-05-08 02:04:23 UTC 
I think this is an old 'feature', but if some moron has a page that
has:·
  <a href="hhttp://cnn.com">cnn</a>
then I think 'middle clicking' on the link should open a new tab -and-
put the url in the header (so you can edit it). I mean the new tab
has opened anyway, isnt it better to give the user a chance to 
correct it?

Currently, if you 'middle click' to open a new window/tab then·
it pops up a 'hhttp is not a registered protocol' (well duh) but the·
url box is empty. *shrugs* (For no reason i can think of).

Spell checkers are usually meant to be used on the writer's side... 
Having a small typo in the URL is a small subset of all
invalid/unsuppored URLs, the fix in bug 116511 seems more generally
useful.
