Trying to select Default Browser Topic is solved

[SilverGaiden]

Code: Select all

Hello!

First time poster and I appreciate everything in advance. not the best but have been tinkering over the past 3 days and came into a snag.

I and making a diagnostics tool for my work and several people stated they want the ability to have the script switch between browsers. I have the obvious one for "Run chrome.exe" and Run firefox.exe". But I have the an If variable for %PassthroughBrowser% so If I make the "Default Browser" selection with nothing, it gives an error.

I had to cut out most of the propietary stuff from my work but here is the core of the code im am working with.

Again, Thank you in advance!

same question here :

short example :

Code: Select all

url=https://autohotkey.com/boards/
ixe:=""                                                       ;- my default browser ( firefox )
;ixe:=A_programfiles . "\internet explorer\iexplore.exe "
run,%ixe%%url%
return

no that part needed to be a variable based off of the following

Code: Select all

Gui Font, s10 Bold, Segoe UI
Gui Add, Text, x3 y90 w110 h23, Domain Name
Gui Font
Gui Add, Edit, vdomain x115 y90 w180 h20

So dig web interface would pull the domain I type in the Domain field, by replacing the variable in the command

My bad, Thank you garry. I'll use the other other post as it is cleaner with the code snippet. I found out that the error only happens when I try to run your example with a blank space and without http:// and just run the domain so the end result become,

Code: Select all

Run, "  google.com"

When you try to use Run google.com, it doesn't translate to a browser. looking for user redundancy and I think I may have to detect if http:// or https:// has been entered or not, to auto add the text in.
