browserName()
browserName(#enabled,
trueOrFalse
)
Description
System property, command, and function; specifies the path or location of the browser. You can use the FileIO Xtra to display a dialog box that allows the user to search for a browser. The displayOpen()
method of the FileIO Xtra is useful for displaying an Open dialog box.
The form browserName()
returns the name of the currently specified browser. Placing a pathname, like one found using the FileIO Xtra, as an argument in the form browserName(fullPathToApplication)
allows the property to be set. The form browserName(#enabled,
trueOrFalse
)
determines whether the specified browser launches automatically when the goToNetPage
command is issued.
This command is only useful playing back in a projector or in Director, and has no effect when playing back in a browser.
This property can be tested and set.
