''Suggestion:'' The developer of the website... err webapp could use a special attribute for links to mark links that should be opened in a normal browser. For example rel="browser". This is would compatible with the HTML-standards. --[[User:Akf|Akf]] 13:13, 9 July 2008 (PDT) | ''Suggestion:'' The developer of the website... err webapp could use a special attribute for links to mark links that should be opened in a normal browser.

For my intended uses of Prism (Gmail/Google Reader/Calendar), this is a show-stopper. Links within the same domain (with www.blah.com and blah.com being considered the same, but subsite.blah.com being a different domain) MUST have the option to open in the system default browser if the behavior is to be considered "desktop application-like". It should probably be the default behavior. Situations where the link is internal, but the destination page redirects to an external site, must also be accounted for. Akf's suggestion has merit and I would also suggest that any link with the old 'target="_blank"' attribute should be treated as external, but relying solely on the website developer to put some specific code in place to make this happen should not be the only mechanism used. | |||
