Ann: HTTP SmartBrowserPlugin 1.0 released!

[André Martin]

I would like to take the opportunity to announce the release of a new HTTP Browser plugin. It is based on Fabio Chelly's excellent HTTP Browser plugin but uses a different software architecture (same as POP3/SMTP EmailPlugin) which allows us to make it fully compatible to all Windows and Total Commander versions and to provide additional features (Resuming, direct downloads, settings dialog etc. ...see webpage). You can download it at:

http://www.acd-group.com/Softwaredevelopment/HTTPPlugin

Note: We did several tests with all kinds of webservers but nevertheless this is the first release so it may contain bugs. Please send all bugs and suggestions to: support@acd-group.com

I checked it and it works in the same way as Fabio's plugin: First you see go.asp and when you open this page then you see will see all files which are linked with this site...

Cannot parse file: Content typeis not text/html!

I use default configuration.
And two more things.
"Quick connection" dialog makes Commander unavailable from Task bur if I move focus to some other window. I have to use "Alt"+"Tab" to get focus back.
"Edit bookmarks" use associated editor, but not the one configured in Commander. It's strange.

This is a compatibility problem with some webservers. Unfortunatly they do not declare the content type of a html file correctly as "text/html" so the plugin does not try to parse the file contents... I will change it in the next version...

This is a window-handle problem. I will try to find better solution/work around...

The plugin calls the ini file directly (in the same way as if you double click or press enter on an ini file). Unfortunatily there is no way to tell TC to open a file with TC's associated file editor

Actually with all servers I tried to reach...

It would be great.

Well, I don't know how, but Sergey Zharski did it in MARC, actually that's why I mentioned this...

Maybe he reads Editor property in wincmd.ini?

What about www.ghisler.com? This should work at least?
How do I know the path to TC'sIniFile if it was set with the "/i=TCWCIniFile.ini" command line parameter and not via registry settings?

It works . But it shows incorrect time for all "files" (+02:00 to my local).

Suggest user to set it on the first plugin run - "Would you like to use this editor?" [/face]

1.) Did you configure your timezone correctly?
Do you mean filetimes which were retrieved from the remote server?
2.) I will think of this but I personally think that the "Edit bookmarks" function is quite useless because you can change/modify all settings and bookmarks via dialogs...
