What happened to WebDAV support in Nautilus?

[Phil Hinz <phinz zero as arizona edu>]

Hello,

	I occasionally use WebDAV to share files with coworkers and was 
happy to find out last summer that I could simply type in the URL for the 
WebDAV location in Nautilus (whatever version was bundled with RH 7.3) and 
it would allow me to treat the location as another folder which I could use 
to drag and drop files, very convenient.

	When I upgraded to RH 8 this feature was not available in Nautilus 
any longer. It also did not display web pages properly , which I am less 
concerned about since I can always use a browser for that. I now have RH 9 
installed and Nautilus 2.2.1 and see the same thing. When I type in the 
WebDAV URL into the location bar it returns the webpage displayed as text. 
There is no way, I can see, to change that to "View as icons" which used 
to be an option.

	My question is, what happened to Nautilus' ability to be used for 
interaction with a WebDAV server? If this is an obvious question, I 
apologize, but several google searches and a look through the nautilus 
mailing list archives didn't turn up anything useful.   Is it possible to 
still use WebDAV through Nautilus? Is there a better client to use under 
RH linux?
