In a shell: # touch /tmp/foo # chmod +x /tmp/foo Then edit an association to a filetype (for an exmple ZIP) in firefox to open with /tmp/foo . Press OK. In a shell: # rm /tmp/foo Then click on a link to a file of type ZIP in firefox => problem. The real-world case of this is when you run firefox on several computers with the same home-directory (using NFS) and when some application (for an example mplayer) is installed on one computer but not on all other. / Anders -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
