Web Object Opening Internet Shortcut Help

[jchasa]

I have made a very simple application that is just a web object. What I want the program to do is just open .url shortcuts. I would like the program to be the default program to open specific shortcuts that I have.

It works when I drag a shortcut on top of the open program. But that is not how I want it to work I want to click on a internet shortcut and this program to open it.

I am missing how to do this specifically or even if it would be possible. I would like the shortcuts to stay outside of the applications programing. (Meaning I could make the actually shortcuts load by using a combo or list box, but that is not what I want)

Thanks for any pushes in the general direction, I have been using AMS for a while but this has me stumped.

You could pass the URL via command line parameter to your application.

Thank you for your reply, I looked at your examples on mindquake. I haven't had to use the command line features before would this work for more than one internet shortcut. What it is meant to do is act as a basic emulator for some web based games. So when the game is chosen from a database of games it will open whatever game's shortcut was chosen in my program.

If you pass different URLs as command line arguments, it should be no surprise that you could open a different page for each case. This flexibility is the whole point of using command line arguments.
