Infoviewer configuration with Windows XP
Submitted by Gary Gabriel on Monday, 3 August, 2009 - 11:32
Hi,

I would like to be able to work more effectively and use Infoviewer with Firefox as external browser for .html texts. But I can't seem to find the right configuration. I get the following errors with the last configuration that I tried:

[debug] InfoViewerPlugin: (external): openURL: file:C:\2009\Temp2009\20091Pub_SisA7_LeadManage_Scribd.htm
[debug] InfoViewerPlugin: args[0]=C:\Programme\MozillaFirefox\firefox.exe
[debug] InfoViewerPlugin: args[1]=file:C:\2009\Temp2009\20091Pub_SisA7_LeadManage_Scribd.htm


If someone could give me a tip on what to tweak; i would appreciate it. Or a tip on where to look for more info- I tried the plugin help, and the wiki.

Thanks- Gary Gabriel

errors?

Hi,
I guess You're using the menu action "open current buffer in browser" when an HTML file is the current buffer, don't You?

I configured InfoViewer to use an external browser with the command line "C:\Programme\Mozilla\Firefox\firefox.exe". It works! And I see exactly the same messages in the Activity Log - these are DEBUG messages, not errors!

Thats why I'm not really sure that You have a problem: If Firefox was already open, the current buffer is opened in a new Firefox tab, but the tab won't become the active tab and also the Firefox window stays in background...

If it really not works for You, please check the configured command line: Maybe there is a backslash missing in "MozillaFirefox"?
