 however, =C-c C-e d= does work and opens the PDF in docview.  For
 symmetry, I would have liked =b= to open my html in emacs w3m, I guess?
 

 As I mentioned, C-c C-e b works fine for me: Org-mode version 7.4
 (release_7.4.530.g3c69).

And it does not work for me with a later version of org mode!

Thanks for the explanation on how the browser to use is identified; I
know this already (although I must admit it was not the most
straightforward thing to figure out initially...).  I have my settings
specified to use x-www-browser by default.  

My point above was simply that the actual results are not symmetrical:
as C-c C-e d uses docview to show the PDF despite my mailcap etc
pointing to the use of apvlv for viewing PDF documents.  I don't believe
I have set anything anywhere to tell org to use docview mode.

In any case, it's easy enough for me to open the PDF in Emacs w3m (C-c
C-e p followed by direct invocation of w3m).

[...]

 As for opening it in emacs w3m, I don't know how to do that.

It's one of the options for the browse-url options.

Thanks again,
eric

It still does work for me. Just tested it now, with:

Org-mode version 7.4 (release_7.4.553.g83b7)


 however, =C-c C-e d= does work and opens the PDF in docview. For symmetry, I
 would have liked =b= to open my html in emacs w3m, I guess?

Why not. But, for me, this should be a consequence of Emacs preferences
regarding the browser to use when clicking on a link.

See `browse-url-browser-function' and `browse-url-generic-program', among
others.

Best regards,
  Seb

As I mentioned, C-c C-e b works fine for me: Org-mode version 7.4
(release_7.4.530.g3c69).

The precise way it works however depends on whether you are
on a GNU system (default: use mailcap), MacOSX (use specific applications or
default open) or Windows (use w32-shell-execute open). All cases are
funnelled through the org-open-file function though, so tracing that
should tell you what's broken. The relevant variables are org-file-apps
and org-file-apps-defaults-{gnu,macosx,windowsnt}.

In my case (Ubuntu 10.10), I get a default mailcap map which takes
text/html to the entry in the system /etc/mailcap:
/usr/bin/sensible-browser, a shell script which eventually opens the
file in firefox.

As for opening it in emacs w3m, I don't know how to do that.

Nick
