Feature Request for long links

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



	Firefox, along with few other browsers, has one valuable feature 
that should spread. If you copy a *long* link (like, say, three to five 
lines long in an email) into its address bar, it will eliminate the 
spaces that come from line ends, and go to the site.

	With most other browsers, you have to proofread the pasted URL, 
finding and removing the gaps. Irritating, and a waste of time.

	No doubt the code to fix those links is internal to Firefox, and 
one would have to beg umpteen developers each to adopt it. But need it be?

	Could Fedora maybe go into the code, say between any browser and 
the networking code that tells the computer to send a link, and insert 
something to clean the link before acting on it?

	This would be a great boon, especially those of us who surf with 
arthritic eyeballs and trifocal fingers.
