Handling of ed2k-links in Firfox 1.0
« on: February 23, 2005, 03:46:06 PM »
I'm having a little problem here with getting this to work. I followed the instructions on the wiki concerning FF0.9 & later and triple-checked everything but I still get "ed2k is not a registered protocol" when clicking a link...

Here is what I did:
Quote
   * Insert about:config in the address bar

    * Right click on the list, select New, then Boolean; insert network.protocol-handler.external.ed2k as Preference Name and true as Value

    * Now another right click, select New and String; insert network.protocol-handler.app.ed2k as Preference Name and /path/to/ed2k (path to where the file is installed on your system) as Value.

(taken from http://www.amule.org/wiki/index.php/Ed2k_links_handling#Mozilla_1.7_(or_later)_&_Firefox_0.9_(or_later))

The computer is running Gentoo, installed Firefox version is 1.0. Any Ideas?

thedude0001,

Jaccobo might know something about this, but I think he will be out for two weeks... Maybe someone else knows?
