The Open URL option in both the file menu and as a shortcut key (ctrl-l) are not working in the dillo browser.

Some of us don't have the horses or memory to run firefox.

Just type the address in the address bar at the top of the window.

The open URL window might have been removed to save space.

Or something.

Well, as much as I like firefox/opera/links/picksomethingelseyoulikeandthinkIshouldbeusing, there are times when all I need is a lightning quick way to surf up some piece of information. For that, dillo really fits the bill on a pokey old pentium 1 laptop. You kids and your newfangled machines can use those modern browsers, but those of us with less than a minute and a half's load time worth of patience appreciate something a bit peppier. :-)

As for the bug, it worked in previous versions and doesn't now, hence listing it as a bug. Neither the menu item or keybinding work to bring up the dialog, so I figured it looked more like a bug than a change in functionality.
