Vienna does not launch mail app #1837

Open nunof34 opened 3 weeks ago

nunof34 commented 3 weeks ago

Hello,

I have a subscription to a French newspaper (Le Monde) that offers the possibility, when I read an article, to share the link to that article. When the article is displayed in Vienna I used to click the newspaper 'Share' and then 'Mail' buttons, this would launch my mail app where I can complete the message containing the link.

Recently, this stopped functioning in Vienna. But when I go to the newspaper home page it still works fine.

I presume something happened in Vienna that makes the 'sharing' buttons offered by the newspaper no longer work when the article is read in Vienna. Or would you suggest that I contact the newspaper to check if THEY have changed something ? (For now they claim they have not changed anything since it stll works fine when I read te article directly from their home page).

Thanks in advance.

That might have been caused by the browser update, it's based on a new technology, and since a few versions that has become the default and only choice (because the old one is not maintainable any more)

It seems that the default configuration of WKWebView prevents "mailto:" links to function.

You can also see this with the demo links of this W3Docs page, which do not work in Vienna.

"mailto:" links probably need to be explicitly handled by a delegate.
