      Description

      From David Nix (sourceforge 3462523)

      When loading a bookmark, e.g. http://localhost:7085/UnibrowControl?version=H_sapiens_Feb_2009&seqid=chr1&start=955502&end=991492 in a browser or via clicking a hyperlink in excel, IGB jumps to that location but doesn't send a response. Thus excel or safari keep trying to load or navigate to that url indefinitely. Excel will even retry the urls after a few minutes causing IGB to jump back if you've migrated off the location. Something quite annoying when one is clicking through a bunch of linked locations.

      One fix would be to have IGB send an http response to the client, maybe a "204 No Content" return? or a simple txt message "Successful jump!" or "Failed to find xxxxxxx "
