Bug 101226 – [Qt] Open link in this window action

• Status: RESOLVED
• Resolution: FIXED
• Component: WebKit Qt

[Allan Sandfeld Jensen]

When right clicking on a link that has a target specifying it should open in a new window we currently show two options that are functionally equivalent (open link (default) and open link in new window). KHTML in this case gives the user another option "open link in this window", which overrides the new window target. This is useful in several poorly designed webpages and a feature I personally miss in QtWebKit.

I don't think that this is something that is beneficial for every QtWebKit application. It would be better not to add it to the default context menu and let application add it by overriding QWebView::contextMenuEvent.

Some documentation would be quite helpful given the ambiguity of the name.

The style bot discards comments, which makes it miscount the indentation. I could fix it by removing space between comments and arguments, but that does not look very nice.

We could do that. That would just mean keeping the code in QtWebKit? The argument for making it more universal is only that OpenLink and OpenLinkInNewWindow are duplicates in this case, though we could also remove one of them by default.

Right, I missed that.

I wish we could remove it but it is needed for code out there that implement QWebView::createWindow and expect the menu item to be there already.

Do not populate the context-menu by default with the new action, but instead just add it in QtTestBrowser for testing

I think you also need to update editorCommandWebActions in qwebpage.cpp

Overall we usually have a team API review on each release to pass invidual APIs that were added through more eyes, maybe we should do this soon.

I think this needs to go at the end of the list for binary compatibility.

Right, we will get these until the patch for bug #101230 lands.

"Used on links that would default to opening a new window" maybe that should also include frames? Like

"Used on links that would default to opening in another frame or a new window" ?

Sorry, it was last minute change. The addition to editorCommandWebAction is in the wrong place, and all the tests were run before that addition.
