Description Milan Kubec 2002-02-08 12:26:50 UTC
If users do not want to use swing browser for viewing javadoc in Javadoc index
search they just double click on entry. But it opens new browser for each entry.
There should be either way how to specify if open new window for each entry or
reuse already opened window. Or by default reuse the window, which would be
consistent with the embeded swing browser.

Either a problem in extbrowser or a wrong API use. Martin, can this be
solved?
Comment 5 Jan Becicka 2011-01-10 15:36:04 UTC
URLDisplayer opens always new window. No API for reuse of existing window.
