Could you specify how you managed this feat? I would like to have
links open in the Firefox browser. However Chrome would work, too. I
just don't know how to redirect the browser when I click on the link.
Thanks.
Ken,
Try this. I'm using Windows 10, SM 2.53.3
1. Make Firefox your default browser, from Firefox and in Windows
default programs. Reboot computer.
2. In SM check Edit/Preferences/Browser, Default browser. Make sure SM
is not your default browser.
3.In SM browser, go to about:config. Search for
network.protocol-handler.external.http. If it exists, set it to false.
If it doesn't exist, create it as a boolean and set it to false.
4. Do the same as step 3 for network.protocol-handler.external.https.
5. Still in about:config, search for
network.protocol-handler.warn-external.mailto and set it to false. If it
doesn't exist, create it as a boolean and set it to false.
6. Close SM and reboot computer.
*sigh*. Neither *.http or *.https exists in my config file. I suppose
I could figure out how to create them as a boolean since years ago I did
futz around with the config file per a suggestion on this newsgroup.
However, nowadays my computer savvy is not as effective as it once was;
so I'll just have to continue with my practice of copying and pasting
the links into Firefox by hand.
Anyway, congratulation to you for succeeding and thanks for the hint!
