Elianna Posted March 8, 2005 Report Share Posted March 8, 2005 I was wondering if there is any way to change the way that BBO displays news. IE seems to not work on my computer, and so I have a different default browser, but BBO still tries to open new news with IE. If I have to set something internally in bbo, how do I do that, and if I can't, I'd like to suggest that in a new version, BBO should check for the default browser and use that.

uday Posted March 8, 2005 Report Share Posted March 8, 2005 When bbo opens a URL from lobby chat, it does the same thing that your windows machine does if you click Start, Run, and type in (say)http://online.bridgebase.com/ However, Lobby news (and a couple of other places) *require* IE. This is because the lobby news embeds a mini browser into that window. The browser is IE, since there is no other browser that we can conveniently embed into our own windows I'll mention to Fred we should consider allowing the user to use a standalone external browser of his choice instead of the embededd IE .
