Launching URLs from Windows (Repost of URLs with %XX codes in them)

[Greasley, Alan]

Can anyone please help with my issue?
(even if it is a vague pointer to the right area to look - I know it is an
old version of Tomcat - we may soon be moving to 4.x with Borland Enterprise
Server 5.x, but the URL-processing bit must be known by someone ...)

thanks

URLs with %XX codes in them

[Greasley, Alan]

I need to use URLs with codes like %6D ('m'). This doesn't seem to work on our Borland 
AppServer installation with Tomcat 3.2.

Long story, but I can't launch browsers with the well-known "rundl32 
url.dll,FileLauncherProtocol " any more as Microsoft have made it not work (words 
fail me!)

An inventive person has found that it objects to ".htm" and ".html", so this Hex code 
spoof does the trick of fooling it, but unfortunately this only works on other random 
web servers I have tried - when I test against our server, I just get the 404 page 

Any help would be gratefully received

thanks

Alan
