Description Adam Roben (:aroben) 2007-06-24 13:39:33 PDT

The Inspector links up src and href attributes in both the DOM and source views. Clicking on one of these that represents a resource in the page takes you to the resource within the Inspector itself, which is very handy. However, clicking on a link that does not represent a resource doesn't do anything. It would be nice if these links opened in a new window.

There are (at least) two ways to fix this:

1) Implement a UI delegate for the Inspector's own WebView that handles createWebView:withRequest: (WebInspectorClient would have to take care of this, since it creates the WebView)
2) Send the navigation requests to the inspected WebView, which presumably has a UI delegate already.

Is this still an issue?

Actually, non-resources now open up in a new tab.
