http://127.0.0.1:8330/?to=domain.com&amount=200.00&comment=order_12345 <br>
or<br>
http://127.0.0.1:8330/?to=<bitcoinaddress\><separatorchar\>1.2.3.4&amount=200.00

But as long as the link is already doing the typing for you, I don't see much benefit in using a domain address instead of bitcoin address. &nbsp;With a bitcoin address, the user can't send an unidentified payment. &nbsp;They can't send payment until they've been given a correct bitcoin address to send to.

What would be nice about sending by domain is you could visually verify who it's going to.

<br>
A more crucial issue is what if the browser isn't allowed to connect to 127.0.0.1:<br>
http://www.bitcoin.org/smf/index.php?topic=63.msg1589#msg1589

and if that's true, then what about that example freenet link that had 127.0.0.1 in it?
