By "open the folder", do you mean, open a file dialog for the user to select something inside of the given directory?
If so, you would probably want to connect your QTextBrowser's clicked signal to a slot that looked something like:
// connect events, in MyWindow constructor, or whereever...
connect(textbrowser, SIGNAL(mousePressEvent(QMouseEvent*)), this, SLOT(openFileDialog(QMouseEvent*)));
void MyWindow::openFileDialog(QMouseEvent* event) {
Q_UNUSED(event);
QStringList files = QFileDialog::getOpenFileNames(this, "Select a file...",
textbrowser.plainText());
// do something with the files here...
}
