Neat LinkClicked tip...

[Jerry Daniels]

I have to say I haven't tried it. Will now...

Surprise, surprise...the test for the textStyle of the clickText DID  
work (miraculously) as you predicted!  I must say I don't know why.  
That doesn't make sense to me. ClickText is supposed to be text, not  
style info, I thought. I stand (sit) corrected.

Other interesting observations...

1. MouseDown issues: Since this handler is mouseDown handler,  
however, it does take an extra click (on the Mac at least) to dismiss  
the dialog that pops up.

2. I think i might colorize the text on mouseDown (linkHiliteColor)  
and do the dialog (or whatever) on mouseUp and then set the color of  
the linkText (linkVisitedColor).

3. I'd set the color of the link styled text to link color in the  
mouseRelease handler--the situation where the released the mouse  
button outside the field. on opening the stack, the color of all such  
links would then need to be set again (linkColor).

This is all because of the undependable nature of the links being  
clicked. I did notice that links seem to work better in standalones,  
but I don't have definitive tests to prove one way or another.

Best,
