Re: [work] RE: [DQSD-Users] problem settin firefox as default (even with setbrowser)
Thanks for getting back to me. I renamed the LocalPrefs.JS - then edited and save the system prefs - reloaded DQSD with the ! - and it's still the same. I did not get the same results as you did. I'm stuck on IE from DQSD - but Avant for everything else.

Yeah, but my localprefs file had a mistake in it after where I had that set, and that was messing it up.

RE: [DQSD-Users] problem settin firefox as default (even with setbrowser)
oh boy oh boy oh boy! I couldn't find that html file. I did a search of my whole C drive! HOWEVER your sugestion worked! I backed up my localprefs, changed the launch mode in prefs, reloaded the deskbar, and it works! THANK YOU! Turns out that I was being dumb after all. I'm embarrassed to say that there were TWO entries for launchmode in my localprefs. I kept changing the first one, but the second one still had launch mode as 0. D'OH! Never would have seen that if you hadn't told me the problem might be with localprefs.

Re: [work] RE: [DQSD-Users] problem settin firefox as default (even with setbrowser)
I have exactly the same problems, except I'm running Avant Browser. Everything else automatically starts up Avant except DQSD. You name it: start / run www.msn.com, desktop shortcuts, outlook urls, etc - all start up Avant. I've downloaded all the suggested files - set browser, slim browser, made all the changes to the localprefs.js, manually set the associations and even renamed Avant's executable IEXPLORE to AIEXPLORE.EXE. All to no avail - even if it does work for a bit - it cruelly stops on reboot or logoff/logon. Unlike others, I'm not convinced it is a Windows problem - if everything else in Windows correctly fires up Avant - why doesn't dqsd? I won't give up DQSD though - it may fire up the wrong browser but it's much better than anything else I use. If I find anything - I'll pass it on.

Re: [DQSD-Users] problem settin firefox as default (even with setbrowser)
Does Firefox startup if you directly double-click a .html file? The one dqsd is executing is in your temp folder and is called DQSDLaunch.html. Find this file and double-click it and see which browser starts. Could there be some formatting problem with your localprefs.js file causing it to not load properly? Try this - Rename localprefs.js to take it completely out of the equation and set launchmode=1 (not 2) in preferences.js /* Browser launch mode * 0=use IE * 1=use default browser * 2=auto (launches in IE directly if IE is default browser) [default] */ launchmode=1; Something to try..

RE: [DQSD-Users] problem settin firefox as default (even with setbrowser)
Yeah, I can see that this must be a windows problem. I'm really at wit's end and may have to accept defeat. I had already tried manually associating firfox with .htm, .html, and url:blah blah... That didn't work. The reinstalling didn't work either! What I don't understand is that every other application I have accepts firefox as the default. When I click on any link or shortcut, even within Outlook, it fires up firefox ;-) And, like I said, the google deskbar sends its searches to firefox. Heck, even the windows address bar opens firefox! So, although I accept that it's a windows problem, I just don't understand how no other applications seem to fall prey to this windows weakness... I don't want to suggest it's a bug in dqsd, but maybe dqsd should develop some way around this issue for those of us who can't get it working. Why couldn't there be a preference for the path to the browser? Thanks all for your help! -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of John W.

RE: [DQSD-Users] problem settin firefox as default (even with setbrowser)
Based on Monty's reply you could always try setting it the hard way. I can think of 2 methods. 1. Have .htm and .html on your PC. Browse to them in Windows Explorer. Right Click and "Open With"... "Choose Program". When the select app window appears check off the box that says always use this app to open this type of file. See if that does the trick. Else... 2. Open Windows Explorer. Tools... Folder Options... File Types. Find "URL:Hyper Text Transport Protocol", "HTM" and "HTML" and make sure their default action is open ant that the application is the browser that you want.

Re: [DQSD-Users] problem settin firefox as default (even with setbrowser)
My $.02 I dont think this is a DQSD problem but a failure of windows to handle the default browser properly... I have had similar problems in the past.. Reinstalling DQSD wont fix the problem because the problem is upstream of the toolbar. I installed Firefox. Fired it up (no pun intended :-) ) and set it to the default browser... dqsd worked with it just fine..I then started up IE over and over, and it *never once* inquired about setting itself to the default browser, even though it is in the internet settings to ask.. I started Netcaptor and it too never prompted me to set it to the default browser (no surprise since Netcaptor is based on IE). I loaded setbrowser and forced the default to Netcaptor. Still the default didn't change. I tried a couple of searches and I got script errors a couple of times and on the third or fourth attempt, VOILA! I was prompted to set my default browser.. I accepted the change and now the default is Netcaptor again... Clearly there is a bug in windows that it doesn't detect default browser settings all the time. I would mess with the browser settings and try to get windows to recognize the changes. DQSD merely writes out an html file and executes it.. It is up to windows to figure out which application to load for it..

Re: [DQSD-Users] problem settin firefox as default (even with setbrowser)
I have had this problem as well and posted to it previously on the list
(albeit for Firebird and not Firefox). I recieved the same responses you
did (i.e. those listed in the documentation and which I had already
tried). Nothing worked. As of today the problem is still unresolved.

I'm so jealous that it's working for you guys! Yeah, I used setbrowser, and
that didn't work, then I also tried just resetting it through the firefox
preferences. No dice... I haven't tried the user.js, but I don't think that
will help. I have tabbrowser extensions, and that should theoretically make
new searches open in new tabs. I just tried the new google deskbar, and it
has no problems sending searches to firefox tabs. But, I MUCH prefer DQSD...

Hi,
I also use Firefox with DQSD and love it. Have you tried clicking the Set
Default Browser under Tools -> Options -> General to reset Firefox as the
default browser?
I also made a file called user.js in the profile directory that contains one

user_pref("advanced.system.supportDDEExec", false);

RE: [DQSD-Users] problem settin firefox as default (even with setbrowser)
I'm so jealous that it's working for you guys! Yeah, I used setbrowser, and
that didn't work, then I also tried just resetting it through the firefox
preferences. No dice... I haven't tried the user.js, but I don't think that
will help. I have tabbrowser extensions, and that should theoretically make
new searches open in new tabs. I just tried the new google deskbar, and it
has no problems sending searches to firefox tabs. But, I MUCH prefer DQSD...
So sad!

Hi,
I also use Firefox with DQSD and love it. Have you tried clicking the Set
Default Browser under Tools -> Options -> General to reset Firefox as the
default browser?
I also made a file called user.js in the profile directory that contains one
line:
user_pref("advanced.system.supportDDEExec", false);
which causes each search to open in a new tab.
For more information see:

Hope this helps,
Brent
