See issue RT-12971 for code sample.

Open my demo implementation applet here:

http://testkirkeportal.brandsoft.dk/testapplet.html

Next, input this URL:

http://www.tizag.com/htmlT/htmlimagelinks.php

If you open this URL in Google Chrome, the image link is active and pointing you to another website. But with WebEngine, nothing happens when you click on the image. It's like links in this form:

<a href="http://www.espn.com" target="_blank"> <img src="ahman.gif"> </a>

is simply ignored.
