[15:27] <AnAnt> Hello, I have a file /usr/share/ubufox/defaults/preferences/300sabily-homepage.js, with the following line:
[15:27] <AnAnt> pref("browser.startup.homepage", "file:/usr/share/sabily-artwork/firefox/sabily-homepage.properties");
[15:28] <AnAnt> sabily-homepage.properties has this line:
[15:28] <AnAnt> pref("browser.startup.homepage", "file:/usr/share/sabily-artwork/firefox/sabily-homepage.properties");
[15:28] <AnAnt> yet, firefox default homepage is still Ubuntu's page
[15:28] <AnAnt> what's the reason ?
[15:28] <AnAnt> it used to work in karmic
[15:35] <cwillu> AnAnt, you're sure that's not supposed to be file:///usr/share/...?
[15:36] <AnAnt> ah, I'll try that
[15:37] <cwillu> AnAnt, a url is of the form:  scheme://username:password@domain:port/path?query_string#anchor
[15:38] <AnAnt> cwillu: that did not work either
[15:38] <cwillu> okay
[15:38] <cwillu> and the path exists?
[15:38] <AnAnt> cwillu: btw, it used to work in karmic
[15:38] <AnAnt> yup, path exists
[15:39] <cwillu> oh, wait, you're opening a properties file directly?
[15:39] <cwillu> and that used to work/
[15:39] <cwillu> ?
[15:39] <AnAnt> oh, btw, the sabily-homepage.properties has this line:
[15:39] <AnAnt> browser.startup.homepage=file:///usr/share/sabily-artwork/firefox/index.html
[15:40] <cwillu> okay, so use that path and be done with it :)
[15:40] <AnAnt> use that path in the .js file ?
[15:40] <cwillu> yes
[15:41] <AnAnt> no, that does not work
[15:42] <cwillu> you're not editing the file with firefox open are you?
[15:42] <AnAnt> I close firefox , then open it again
[15:43] <cwillu> hmm, I don't even have a defaults folder in /usr/shar/ubufox
[15:43] <cwillu> /usr/share/xul-ext/ubufox/defaults/preferences is the path I have
[15:44] <AnAnt> ah, ok
[15:46] <AnAnt> that worked ! thanks
[15:46] <cwillu> score one point for the person who knows nothing about firefox internals, yet gives advice anyway :)
[15:47] <AnAnt> haha
[15:47] <AnAnt> thanks
[15:59] <AnAnt> btw, file:/ works
[16:00] <AnAnt> bye
