Details

If you have a mail that consist of the following lines: http:// ftp:// chrome:// file:// killer:// both chrome:// and file:// are reconized as a URL's and are hyperlinked. The other ones aren't! Is that correct?
Ben, if anyoone can explain this, it's you.
Yes. INVALID. Long answer: My code knows nothing about chrome. It just asks necko "is that an uri?". necko answers "yes", so it's linkified. BTW: I don't think, this is a security risk. A msg should be just like a webpage.

So why isn't http:// and ftp:// an uri? Is it a bug in Necko?
gemal, can you load <http://>? No, the host is missing. Can you load <file://>? Yes on Unix, the root is shown
I just know that pressing the <file://> and <chrome://> links with my Mozilla does absolutly nuthing! Build 2000052020 on Win2K
Then file a bug against necko, propably andreas otte. amke them block bug 19313.
