I have a program that use embed IE to load webpages. But whenever a link is clicked that point to for eg, new page.htm, opera pop up to intercept it. Can i prevent opera from doing so which is really irritating?
Any ideas guys?
I have tried to change the registry, HKCR\.htm and ask it to open with IE, but IE simply cannot open the page.
Try this registry edit:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Rai\EFBROWSER\
Value 0="Pocket IE"
Value 1="\Windows\iexplore.exe"
OR
Try this cab...
Hello,
I successfully installed Opera Mini on my Elf using Jbed. Works fine so far.
Problem is, I'd like to have it opened when I click the corresponding button in my Internet-Tab on my Manila 2D homescreen.
I tried using M2DC, but it only lets me select .exe files and I do not have an exclusive .exe for Opera Mini, only JBed. But I'd have working .ink file which opens Opera Mini just fine.
So, how do you put Opera Mini in there?
I'm using the german GOLD-ROM.
You will need to wait for an update for manilla 2d if you want it to directly open opera mini, unless you have programing experience, you can compile a program that will open your link. (and its "lnk" not "ink" )
edit: this workaround would only work for opening the browser but would not be useful for the links you can setup in manilla ....the internet lnks are a service call for the browser if i am not mistaken (which is why you must have an exe file))
joel, sorry to say but you're wrong.

Another question:
I'd like to add a shortcut to an RSS-Reader in the internet-tab, below the YouTube shortcut.
Is this possible?
I have SKTools, Total Commander, and Registry Key Editors.
I tried setting up file associations to open URL files, but it doesn't work. Only PIE opens the URL files by default.
Can I get the instructions to open URL files with Opera Browser?
Bump, please help me.
This is my 1st bump.
Bump, please help me.
This is my 2nd bump.
As far as I know you can set up thatparameters typing opera:config on your device
Hope it helped,
So do you mean the file associations parameters should be "opera:config"?
URL associations are set up by the app you're using.
if opera is defined as your default browser any url you'll open will automatically pop opera up.
Okay, I am using File Explorer and Total Commander. I want to Open .url files with Opera, it opens with PIE instead.
How do I open it?
What is a "default calendar"?
When I set URL file association for Total Commander, the link does not go online, instead it brings me to an error page. Under the URL box in Opera Browser, it would not show www.google.com, instead it would show something like: storage card/%mystuff/%20favorite links
So if I copied a google.com url into my phone storage card, I want to open it and GO ONLINE with Opera Browser NOT PIE. How do i do this?
PLEASE DOWNLOAD THE ATTACHMENT, SO YOU GUYS KNOW WHAT KIND OF FILE I AM TALKING ABOUT.
meant browser.. not calendar.
when you setup a default browser it will open up all urls in it... automatically

I used Xperia Tweak to setup Opera Browser as my default browser, I still open google.url and it opens with PIE.
My basic file program is Total Commander.
BTW I am not talking about Microsoft Windows. I am talkin about Windows Mobile, and the phone I use is the Xperia X1.
Why is everyone giving me confusing answers. I'm getting more and more confused.
I have looked extremely hard for file associations for opera browser, and this is what i got:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1714441
I do not use morthscript though, and I'm afraid digging into will cause me to factory reset my phone again, and I have rest my phone 10 times already.
Please, tell me if there is any other way to Open URLs via Opera Browser.
I have this program which i downloaded ages ago. I cant remember where i got it from, so im just uploading it myself. Just to clarify, this is NOT my program.
You know how on a pc, you can right click and select "Open with"?
Well, this cab brings that to pocket pc's
Hope it helps
Yeah this is exactly what I was looking for. The thread link from one of my posts also talks about "open with" method. But I don't want to use mortscript.
If your cab is not going to work, I guess I will give up searching for a solution.
Anyways thanks, you are my miracle!.
Here is an update:
Nope... it opens Opera Browser but than it doesn't go to the website (the same exact thing happens if I set file associations for Opera, and the same exact thing still happens if I use the registry editor to change association values, xperia tweak doesn't work, total commander built in file associations doesn't work, sk tools file associations doesn't work either).
I GIVE UP
Registry settings
Hi
Registry settings where file defaults are is:
Hot Key Classes Root.
In this directory there are hundreds (or more) keys relating to all the different file extensions that are associated with programmes, etc. You need to look for:
.htm
.html
htmfile
htmlfile
There may be others. Basically if these keys exist the values you're looking for are the ones with the browser executable listed in them, for example opera9.exe/operaL.exe, iexplore.exe.
I hope that helps

as i see it you ar not talking of .htm or .html files.
You are talking off .url File's
normaly (xp) they are handled by the protocol handler
in wm6.1 there is no such thing and it is directly handeled by iexplore
opera wil not handle these i gues
you need to find a app that reads the urlfile an launh the app with the correct parrameters
you also need this
\hkcr\http,URL Protocol,
\hkcr\http\shell\open\command, ,"\windows\operaL.exe" %1
\hkcr\https,URL Protocol,
\hkcr\https\shell\open\command, ,"\windows\operaL.exe" %1
or you can try http://sourceforge.net/projects/jzsmartmort
(I posted about this last night, but the message got lost in some backup snafu. So I'll post it again. Apologies if they both end up here.)
I hacked together a solution to this problem, and posted it at ppcgeeks.

It involves installing Mortscript, and having it handle passing the links to Opera. Seems to be working perfectly for me so far. Hopefully my instructions are not too convoluted. Enjoy.
Hi Guys,
I am having a problem at the moment. When I try and open a URL that ends in .jpg, Internet Explorer Mobile wants to download and open it. I want the image to simply open in Internet Explorer Mobile. It can obviously render images, as it does it all the time, but seemingly not when the URL ends in .jpg.
I tested the link on a desktop version of IE and it didn't ask to download, it just showed the image, which suggests to me it is not using "Application/Force-Download". I am going to try on another mobile web browser like Opera.
Does anybody know why this is? Or, is there a registry tweak to fix it? Thank you everyone for any information you can provide. It will help me greatly with a project I am working on.
PS I have "View Images" turned on in Internet Explorer Mobile, so that is not the problem.
i'm not so sure this is a problem.
which internet explorer are you using?
I think the new internet explorer shows images rather than downloading them.
Thanks for your reply. I have gotten around the problem by putting the link (it's static) inside a blank html page. Works perfectly now. Cheers!
i'm sorry, but what did you do before? tried to put the link in a PIE window with a website already loaded?
Sorry, let me be very specific:
I needed to get PIE to load an image inside the web browser, simple as entering the URL address and up comes the image.
However, PIE won't do that (could be a VGA problems specific to Imate phones I heard). Instead it asks if you want to download it, which I don't.
So, to fix the problem I have written a html page that basically says:
<html><head>
<Src img="www.website.com/June/Image.jpg">
</head></html>
Using this way, the image is forced to open inside PIE.
I needed it for a mod I am making for HTC Home and Manilla 2D.
Oh.. i thought you just put it inside a blank PIE window instead of one already loaded with a webpage.. hehe
good to know then.
the new PIE loads images regularly tho, doesn't download them.
cheers
Hi , i am new to this wonderfull forum and i want to say thanks for all your help.It's my first time that i write and iwant to ask about a problem. i have a htc tytn (hermes) with wm 6.1 professional cooked byDvha79_ddt built 20755.1.4.0 PV DVH i install opera 9.5 it works fine with wi-fi except when is to download something from the web and that i can't see stream videos that's why i installed skyfire too.The problem is that when i open skyfire having a good wi-fi connection it says connecting flashing .... and nothing happends.i searc the forum and the only thing i found is "Under settings->connections->connections, uncheck "This network uses a proxy server to connect to the Internet" " but it was allready unchecked.what can i do to make it work.
go into application data folder using the file browser and rename file "pref" to "_pref".
restart skyfire and it should work
the file in the application data folder is "prefs" and i renamed it to _prefs but i had the same problem.it remains the image "skyfire version 1.0.0.11783 connecting ..." i tried to rename prefs to _pref but with the same result.every time i run skyfire it appears to application data file the renamed file for example _prefs and a new one prefs .what can i do to make it work
