Re: SeaMonkey doesn't open local file links
Mon, 09 Mar 2009 13:45:07 -0700, /Fred Hare/: Have a desktop link to a musik station using WinAmp, and it works OK: C:\Programs\Winamp\winamp.exe http://68.181.156.19:8000/kuscaudio128.mp3 I want to use this link from my homepage, but SM does not allow it. Desktop shortcuts and hyperlinks in web-pages are different things. You generally cannot link executable files from within web-pages, moreover specifying command-line arguments. In a message by Ralph Fox "Thunderbird doesn't open local file links" about a week ago in mozilla.support.thunderbird I saw: See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Links_to_local_pages_do_not_work. The given article describes a different issue. What you could do is link directly the resource http://68.181.156.19:8000/kuscaudio128.mp3 and let it open with whatever helper application is configured to. You could also create an .m3u file listing only the given resource (just save the play list from Winamp), link to that .m3u file and configure your SeaMonkey to open it with Winamp. -- Stanimir ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

Passing arguments to a helper app?
Hi, On some site I've a link to a videostream that pops up the "Opening (filename)" box, where I can choose between the default application, a custom one or saving to disk. Entering /usr/bin/vlc works as expected: VLC starts and plays the stream. Now, I would like to pass some command-line arguments to VLC. Adding anything to the path (like some mailcap syntax "/usr/bin/vlc %s ...") brings me the error message "The app. could not be found". So I tried to make some wrapper script, e.g. I enter /home/jdoe/bin/foo in the box, and this script reads: /usr/bin/vlc "$@" but to no avail. To find how SM passes arguments, I also tried this script: echo "$@" > /home/jdoe/foobar but foobar is not created. As a sidenote, I also launched SM from a terminaal in the hope of getting some error message, but again got nothing. Any help will be appreciated. -- LL ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
