QWebView mailto problem

I'm using the QWebView element in a PyQt application and mailto lin开发者_如何学Goks do not seem to work. When I click on them nothing happens and the default mail client does not open.

Pointers on fixing this problem will be very much appreciated.

Thanks.

try this

self.connect(webview, QtCore.SIGNAL( " linkClicked ( const QUrl & ) "), self._link_clicked)

you could do open mail client in self._link_clicked

BTW, PySide is better than PyQt, the former is more Pythonic.
