Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.misc -> Calling the Default Browser from Forms 4.5
I have a when-mouse-doubleclick trigger on the "URL" field that
launches a user's browser with the URL as a parameter. The location
of each users browser is stored in the database and passed to the
form. Here is the trigger:
DECLARE
APPS_ID PLS_INTEGER;
BEGIN
APPS_ID := DDE.APP_BEGIN (:GLOBAL.BROWSER || ' ' || :URL, 2);
DDE.APP_FOCUS (APPS_ID);
END;
It works fine, but for easier maintainability, I would like to be able
to find and call the user's default browser instead. I suspect a
user's default browser may be found in the registry, but I don't know
much about the windows registry or how I would use the value in a
similar trigger. Any hints?
Thanks,
Parker
