Re: External Browser????
Hello Jim others on TBUDL following this thread, Monday, March 19, 2001, you asked: JRJ Is there a way to fire up an external browser to view HTML as JRJ it should be - with images, etc.? If not, are there plans to do JRJ so in the future?? Thanx!! I use Opera v 3.62 (version w/ no ads). Opera lets you associate it with html (and other graphic) files. When I double click on the html icon in TB! the file opens in Opera and if I then click on a link, opera takes me there. That's all there is to it.

Instead, a window appears saying that netscape.exe can't be found... of course it can't... What to do?

Re: External Browser????
My problem is fixed and I kind of understand how it happened. My html messages were arriving as attached .mv files which normally pertain to Miva Script files. I had recently changed the default handler for that extension to another program for editing (EditPlus). I simply deleted the extension from Explorer. Upon a theBat reload, html files then showed as message.hts. The hts extension is yet another Miva Script extension (older version I believe). I can still open these files with my preferred program and I normally open them from within the editor anyway. But most importantly, theBat is now showing the proper message.html. Now I ask myself, "Self, was this really worth the trouble to see ads in your messages"? This was simple for me since the only purpose hts and mv files have here is to be edited with a text editor. But regarding other's file extension oddities, I am unsure. Correct me if I am wrong but I believe the main purpose of a file extension is to associate a file type with a master program or set of menu extensions. That said, if a program is looking for a certain file type, it will find it and manipulate it regardless of whether the extension is recognized by the OS. Don't take my word for it though.

Re: External Browser????
Nononono! Save it with the **WCT** extension to prove the point! Ohh!! OK!! Did that... it fires up Netscap - but with a blank page... dat's all!! :) JRJ saved it with the .htm extension, double- click thru windows JRJ explorer and voila!! All is well! I know it works as htm - I knew it would (and it's why I said to do it). The point is that .wct is not a launchable extension and saving one externally and trying to launch *that* will prove it.

Cool - if I could only get it to work!!! :)) JRJ I REAY Like TB - but there are still some things that are JRJ missing for me. THANX!! I suggest reinstalling your browser. It's not behaving very well at all - although reinstallation my not serve to correct the bad file associations. You could also try (not as a solution but to test your browser) saving the attachment (right click on it and select "Save") and trying to launch the saved version from the explorer. Try it with various extensions including .html. OK... I have 3 areas - folder list, message list and preview area. In the preview area, the message gets displayed. It has 2 tabs... one is labeled "1" and the other is labelled "message.wct". The tab labelled "1" brings up a split area - right side contains the text message... left side has an icon and is labelled "message.wct" also. If I right-click on the icon and select the option that says "Save (message.wct)" and save it as a file with a .htm extension, then use Windows Explorer to find the file, double-click it, it comes up in Netscape the way it should - all graphics, etc. So that works... But if I double-click the icon, it fires up Netscape - but nothing appears - blank page... that's it. If I select the tab that says "message.wct", I can see the message in the preview pane - but without the images. -- __ Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] You are subscribed as : archive@jab.org

When you double click a message in the message list you are opening a *folder* view window. It is a view of the folder with a message list.

It's because .wct should *not* be the default text/html MIME type extension but, somehow, it is. If you can fix that, it will work exactly as it supposed to. Can anyone back else me up on what's going on with this installation? Any other NetScape users able to confirm/deny the use of .wct?
