Hi all,

I want to open the browser in kioskmode from Lingo.
Earlier I used this line for Netscape with succes:
open (the pathName & "mypage.html") with browserName() & " -sk"

Now I want this also for Explorer because since v5.0 Internet Explorer can also be 
opened in kiosk mode.
So I made it like this:

  case (gBrowser) of
    "ie": open (the pathName & "data\check.html") with browserName() & " -k"
    "nn": open (the pathName & "data\check.html") with browserName() & " -sk"
  end case

One way or the other the " -k" parameter doesn't work with Explorer so the browser 
will not open.

When I do the same thing in a batchfile (with absolute paths which I'm trying to avoid 
using lingo) it works with Netscape as well as Explorer:
For Netscape:
c:\progra~1\netscape\communicator\program\netscape -sk d:\mypage.html
For Explorer:
c:\progra~1\intern~1\iexplore -k d:\mypage.html

So how come I can't do this thing in Lingo when the browserName is Explorer???

Any ideas.

Frits
