Hi all

W98SE IE 5.5 with Netscape 4.7 as my secondary browser.

I have been trying to add an "Open With Netscape" option to the "right click menu" for a URL link when viewing a web page using IE 5.5, but have not had any success so far.

Using Folder Options\File Types I was able to add it for the following 2 types.

I was able to add it to the "right click menu" for "Internet Shortcuts" for URL's (web pages) on my hard drive when the shortcuts are in any Explorer folder with no problem and it works great. /images/w3t/icons/cool.gif /images/w3t/icons/smile.gif


I was able to add it to the "right click menu" for "HTML Documents" that are anywhere on my hard drive with o problem and that also works great. /images/w3t/icons/cool.gif /images/w3t/icons/smile.gif


I have tried "URL:File Protocol", "URL:HyperText Transfer Protocol" with no luck. /images/w3t/icons/frown.gif /images/w3t/icons/frown.gif

There has to be some way or a registry hack (?) to do this, but I'm at a loss as to where to start\do it, so can anybody offer any suggestions, etc, that would add it as I want ??

Thanks
