I didn't understand it but it worked great. Now I want to do the same thing but I want to call up firefox instead. My current version of I.E. can not do flash because of the 64 bit problem. Firefox doesn't care. Can anyone help me. I have a program called GoURL and my button code is : do c:\alldat2\programs\GoURL with venders2.website Gary Jeurink --- StripMime Report -- processed MIME parts --- multipart/alternative text/plain (text body -- kept) text/html --- [excessive quoting removed by server] _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/81CB7086925E42C5A8D6F488AF7A7124@OwnerPC ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
