Drag and Drop text/URL to open in new tab

Drag and Drop selected text/URL to open in new tab. If I select some text and perform a drag and drop then it should open in a new tab. If I perform and drag and drop on a URL then also it should open it in a new tab and If I select a part of the URL and then perform drag and drop then only the selected text (of the URL) should be opened in the new tab.

Similar options exist in Maxthon and Firefox addon QuickDrag

Thanks

This feature is great, how about including it in the next release of K-Meleon?

You can change your 1.5 default mouse gesture plugin to Hao's mouse gesture plugin.
(Tested with CCF 0.8.5)

1) Go to your 1.5 installation folder and rename the extension of file gestures.dll in kplugins subfolder (for backup). For example: gestures._dll

2) Copy gestures.dll plugin from CCF kplugins subfolder to 1.5 kplugins subfolder.

3) Add CCF gestures preferences. There are two ways, from about:config or without K-Meleon load edit prefs.js in your K-Meleon profile folder:

user_pref("kmeleon.plugins.gestures.idrag", 1);
user_pref("kmeleon.plugins.gestures.drag", 0);
user_pref("kmeleon.plugins.gestures.links", 0);
user_pref("kmeleon.plugins.gestures.rdrag", 0);

4) Run K-Meleon and enable Mouse Gestures from F2 key (preferences panel).

Now Drag&Drop with links works!

Use it at your own risk. I didn't tested if this change is 100% stable.

The site that hosts the CCF ME executables has been down for days - can anyone who has it upload the gestures.dll via Rapidshare or something? I'm an ex Firefox user who's badly missing this feature from the superdragngo plug-in!

desga2,

Late response... so did you ever test Hao's gestures to see if it indeed plays nicely with KM 1.5.4?

K-Meleon 1.5.0 (08.08.2008) +n is the contemporary of these posts.

If it worked with one 1.5 - it should work with all.

Besides kplugins (except layers) are largely independet of version problems.
It should work at least from version one to now (maybe even including 1.6).

Guenter,

Thanks for that tidbit... wasn't sure if it was compatible, off to try it now.
