The html page contains:
<A HREF="spreadsheet.xls"><IMG SRC="/lib/xlicon.gif"></A>
In Netscape, the helper settings in Options->Preferences are set to
to start Excel when an *.xls file is received:
- Mime type: application
- subtype: excel
- extension: xls
- action: launch application (application specified as
excel.exe in the right directory)
What happens is that if the user clicks on the icon the file spreadsheet.xls
is loaded, but Netscape does not start Excel, but shows the spreadsheet
as a lot of garbage text.
Obviously, I am doing something wrong. Any suggestions ?
Thanks in advance!
