It works nicely for mailto links. The problem is with mailto in javascript and when forms are supposed to be sent as email (action mailto method post). For those I still get a mailto unregistered message. Copy paste of the address I don't mind when it can be reached. mozilla-ctxextensions also allows setting a mailto handler. This removes the mailto unregistered protocol error but does nothing else. > AC > > -- > [EMAIL PROTECTED] || http://www.acampbell.org.uk > using Linux GNU/Debian || for book reviews, electronic > Windows-free zone || books and skeptical articles > > > -- > To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] > with a subject of "unsubscribe".
