I just tried to install Protozilla < http://protozilla.mozdev.org/ >, which is an addon to Mozilla to allow user-definable protocol schemes to be defined, letting support for various other URI/URL/URN/etc. types be added to Mozilla.
Unfortunately, it didn't work for me. In fact, it totally horked my copy of Mozilla, making it come up with nothing but a solid grey window every time I started it, with no menus or other controls and no website (though it did display the title of my startup home page). The only way I could figure out to get Mozilla back to normal was to manually edit out a reference to Protozilla in overlays.rdf. I think there are still all sorts of Protozilla references spread over various configuration files and registry entries, but Mozilla now acts like Protozilla doesn't exist, so it works again. Prior to this installation, I had tried to install an earlier version of Protozilla a few months ago, when I was using an earlier build of Mozilla, so there was probably a number of files related to it already installed. That version never seemed to work for me either; it added a "Protozilla" menu item, but it didn't do anything, and the new demonstration protocols were ignored. At least it didn't completely hose my browser interface then. Anybody else have a clue what's going on? -- == Dan == Dan's Web Tips: http://www.dantobias.com/webtips/ Dan's Domain Site: http://domains.dantobias.com/
