           Summary: WinLauncher needs better url handling
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows 7
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Minor
          Priority: P3
         Component: Tools / Tests
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: alex.christensen at flexsim.com

BrowserWindowController.m has a function called addProtocolIfNecessary which prepends "http://" if "://" is not found in the url of MiniBrowser.  A similar behaviour can be achieved with a simple one line change that makes it so if you type "webkit.org" into WinLauncher you'll get to your favourite website instead of having to type "http://www.webkit.org/".

Also, we defined our own macro MAX_URL_LENGTH which is 1024 instead of INTERNET_MAX_URL_LENGTH from WinInet.h which is 2083.  This should be consistent.

This makes WinLauncher more stable and user friendly.
