Hi,
I have encountered this minor problem for some time. In fact, it may be a browser problem but I have asked this question in Firefox’s forum but got no reply.

I have set emeditor as Firefox’s default for viewing source.
But emeditor (ver. 7 or 8) cannot open webpages which have titles Not being purely alphanumeric.

So I checked the temporary files, and found that the webpages’ filenames are named using the webpage title. Emeditor cannot recognize them when I use right click menu on Firefox. Everytime if I want to use emeditor to open them, I need to open the temporary folder and find the temporary page to open.

Is there any tweak to this?

Thanks

I have Firefox 3 installed, but how can you set EmEditor as Firefox’s default for viewing source?

Which web page can reproduce this issue?

Thanks!

Thanks for looking into it.

To set up emeditor as default source viewer:
In firefox 3’s address bar, type about:config
search for view_source.editor.external
set the value to true

Then in “view_source.editor.path” , input the path to emeditor.
http://kb.mozillazine.org/View_source.editor.path

And to reproduce this issue, viewing source of many page with non-alphanumeric titles will fail to open directly
For example, http://b.hatena.ne.jp/

I reproduced your issue, but it is not related to EmEditor. Notepad.exe, for example, would not open correctly either.
