On http://www.iol.ie/~locka/mozilla/faq.htm I found the hint how to
change preferences for the control by extracting the necessary lines
out of
C:\WINNT\Profiles\...me...\Anwendungsdaten\Mozilla\Profiles\...me...\????????.slt\prefs.js
and include them into
\WINNT\Profiles\...me...\Anwendungsdaten\MozillaControl\profiles\MozillaControl\??????.slt\prefs.js
But my proxy settings
user_pref("network.proxy.type", 2);
user_pref("network.proxy.autoconfig_url","http://...my .pac file...");
are ignored. Needless to say that these proxy settings works well with
Mozilla Version 1.4 (Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; WinNT4.0; en-US; rv:1.4)
Gecko/20030624) itself. I even tried to insert the proxy settings in
the file
C:\Programme\GemeinsameDateien\mozilla.org\GRE\1.4f_2003062408\defaults\pref\all.js
but nothing helped. I searched for all prefs.js user.js and all.js
files on C:\ and included my proxy settings. Nevertheless, the
Delphi-Example-Application webbrowser.exe
(http://www.iol.ie/~locka/mozilla/dbrowse.zip) using the control
always leads to "Error - 403 Access denied to destination
http://...:80" when I try to open an external URL. Calling internal
URLs works well. Strangely, calling "about:config" leads to a blank
page. Only the header (Preference name |Status|...) is visible. Maybe
the control ignores all options.
Any comments are wellcome.
