Yes, this is a "special" feature I added in recent xulrunner ;) > But neither pref nor defaultPref did what they > should do, i.e. specify a system default that is actually used. defaultPref > did exactly nothing. pref did a bit: I tried it with > startup.browser.homepage, > and it showed a blank line in the preferences dialog albeit it was > correctly in about:config, and showed an empty page at startup. This is because (sadly) browser.startup.homepage is a special preference, that needs to point to a file where the pref is set. The default is resource:/browserconfig.properties, which points to /usr/lib/iceweasel/browserconfig.properties, which contains: browser.startup.homepage=http://www.mozilla.org/projects/granparadiso/ You can try to set it to some file:/// url, but I can't guarantee it will work. Some preferences are like that, sorry... Mike -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
