Details

Windows 11 OS
Version 140.7.0esr and also in beta 148.0b2

In Calendar

  • Click on '+New Event'
  • Create an event and in 'Description' try to enter a link.
  • I type as an example: http://www.anje.co.uk
  • It looks just like text and does not auto turn blue nor show underlined.
  • Highlight all the text and click on the 'Link' icon in formatting bar area.
  • Enter the same data for the link it'self and click on 'OK'
  • Text turns blue and is underlined.
  • At this point try hover over - mouse does not change - clickon link fails to do anything.
  • Click on 'Save and Close'

Reopen the same Event
TRy to click on link.

Actual REsults
hover over link - mouse does not change
click on link fails to do anything.

Expected REsults:
hover over link and mouse changes to show it's a clickable link
click on link and it opens in a separate tab in default browser.

Well, composition also doesn't allow opening during edit. See bug 695142 and the various see-alsos from there.

Ah yes - I was just clicking on event to see info rather than right click and select 'Open'. So I suppose it was in Edit mode.
