           Summary: Local file handling broken with .qtl files
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 420+ (nightly)
          Platform: Macintosh
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.4
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebKit Misc.
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at opendarwin.org
        ReportedBy: mark at antsclimbtree.com


I'm not absolutely sure this is a WebKit bug, but I think it is.

Basically, the functionality for launching local files linked from a page with
their proper handler seems to be broken.  Specifically, I am having a problem
with .qtl files, which are supposed to be launched with QuickTime Player.  The
latest Safari, and the latest nightly of WebKit, simply opens a Finder window
and displays the .qtl file instead of opening the file with QuickTime Player,
which is what it should do.  I'm sure the files in question are not at fault,
because they launch QuickTime Player when clicked from Firefox, and I have
tested with a CD-ROM which I know for a fact was working properly with earlier
versions of Safari.

This only occurs with local files (i.e. files that are linked via file://). 
http:// links work fine.
