------------------------------------

             Summary: Specialized component to implement an HTML hyperlink

                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-977

    Affects Versions: 2.0.4
         Environment: All
            Reporter: Roger Whitcomb

            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 2.1


The appearance of a LinkButton is the same as an HTML hyperlink, but actually using it to implement a hyperlink is rather involved.  So, it would be nice if there was a specialized component (subclass of LinkButton) that actually implements the hyperlink functionality, using the standard Java "Desktop.browse(URI)" method, so it is quite simple to implement a real hyperlink within an application.
