Web broswer directions not starting maps on ICS. PLEASE HELP

[NHBass39]

Ok so on GB if I pulled up a name of a business on my browser and hit directions it would go to Maps, now it does not on ICS. Any ideas how to fix this.

Hmmm... this doesn't work in Chrome, Maxthon, or the stock Internet browser. Wonder if this is an HTClinkifydispatcher thing? [How-To] Remove HTClinkifydispatcher.apk to open YouTube links to the YouTube app etc - xda-developers

EDIT: Actually, this is related to this... say thanks to Apple lawsuits! The only way to fix is it is to root and follow the directions in the above post!

Just found out it works in chrome, but not the stock browser?

Does not work in Chrome for me... can click all day on "Directions" box and nothing happens.

NVM, was just that one address I was using was bad... If I use the stock browser it opens in the browser on Google Maps website, if I use Chrome or Maxthon it works fine and opens Maps.

But that doesn't change the reason behind the stock browsers behavior, it is because of the HTClinkifydispatcher thing.

Also works great in Dolphin as well. I guess I'll just use either. Dolphin is really fast to.

Works perfectly with Chrome..... I don't use the stock browser anymore as I love the way chrome sync's to my laptop bookmarks.
