Details

There HAS to be a bug on this somewhere but could not find one. When typing a message in text mode, a hyperlink is not displayed as a "live" link but remains as text only. Would be of great benefit to actually see the link as a live link for testing purposes among other reasons. Most, if not all, email applications that I've seen/used display hyperlinks as "live" when typing in a compose window.
I believe this is a dup of bug 163017 .
Similar enh request but not quite the same as the original bug involved Win2k, Core, etc and requires the user to right-click to context a choice to "browse link". I would much rather see the enh as "link as you type". Need clarification from mscott as to dupe or not I would think. Also, no activity for three years now.
(In reply to comment #2) > the original bug involved Win2k, Core, etc If it says Core, it's *more* likely to be a dupe. If it says "Win2K" that usually means that the bug was reported from a Win2K machine and nobody has updated the platform to All. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 176525 ***
