Hi,

Running lsxcommand 1.9.3 with Mozilla firefox and I'm having trouble when opening a new webpage. If I type any of the following I get multiple browsers. I get three with 1.9.2 and two with 1.9.3.

This problem doesn't show up in lsxcommand 1.8.5 and I was hoping someone knew how to fix this.

Thanks

I have not seen this happen, and use Firefox 0.9.2 and LSXCommand 1.9.3. Have you tried going back in FF versions and seeing what happens? I know they changed the normal behavior with links in 0.9.

Nope...just tried Firefox 0.9.2 and the same problem occured. I'm sure it's in lsxcommand since the 1.8.5 version worked perfectly, it might be something with the options in the .rc file. I know that my Tab-Completion isn't working normally either.

I don't think that's a problem with LS, it's a bug with the file associations in the registry for firefox. I saw this somewhere the other day. I was having problems with firefox at work, but not at home, even though I was using the same theme, same OS, same version of firefox, etc. The problem is DDE related - look here for an explanation and a .reg file to fix it.
