Description Steven T. Hatton 2004-02-13 04:50:28 UTC

Version:           3.1.0cvs (using KDE KDE 3.2.0)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

It would be nice to be able to find out what url I'm looking at when using the html widget for browsing documentation.  It would also be nice to be able to copy and past it into another web client, or an email or other document.  I don't believe that can be done with the current KDevelop.

Heh. I was just wondering if I should add that, last night. :)

I guess I will.

I want to add that this may have certain security implications.  I know links are displayed in the status bar when I mouse over them, but there is no immediately obvious way to determine where the current page was loaded from.  I don't like the idea of sending my ip address to unknown locations without my being able to dertermin what those location are.  It just takes a bit of trickerie to get a person ot click a link they don't think they clicked.

This is something I'd like to see in kdevassistant.
