Hello all,

We have some usages of goToNetPage in our app that look pretty much like this:

gotoNetPage "https://foo.blah.com/?page=login";, "BLAH_Login"

or:

gotoNetPage "http://foo.blah.com/forum/";, "BLAH_Forums"

These are executed as part of a mouseUp handler on some UI elements.

These work for some people, on both Windows and OS X, including everyone in our office. However, for others, if they click on this the projector locks up entirely. For others still, they work, but only if they already had a web browser open (and if they don't, then they lock up).

For the people that this fails for, there doesn't seem to be a noticeable pattern that I've found yet as to OS version or browser versions. It happens with various versions of IE as well as Opera. I'm not sure if there were reports of this happening with Mozilla-base browsers or Safari.

   * Are there known issues with using goToNetPage in a projector?
   * Are there workarounds for any known issues with using goToNetPage?
   * Is there some other (cross-platform hopefully) way to launch a
     browser with a given URL, or open that URL in an existing browser?
   * If none of the above, is there a better place to ask this since
     it is hard to ship a product with this sort of bug?

Thanks in advance for any help or pointers,

- Bruce
