Previewing in Firefox with WeBuilder 2006

Post by myotis »

I hav just bought WeBuilder and cannot get it to preview using Firefox 1.5. The error message suggests that I need ActiveX installed, and I have done that, and I have checked the path to firefox.exe and that is correct.

Can anyone suggest anything else I can try, or indeed is there some way of checking that ActiveX for firefox really is installed.

Many thanks,

Graham

You've downloaded and installed the ActiveX control?
http://download.blumentals.net/tools/Mo ... ol1712.exe

The path to Firefox is only needed if you want to preview your webpage physically in Firefox, rather than from within WeBuilder.

Just did thiis myself, and it worked Ok - just had to install, no reboot required, etc.

Well, I thought I had, that is why I said that I had installed it and why I asked if there way any way of checking that it was installed properly.

I installed via the Mozilla site, as that automated the process, and told me it was installed, but it still didn't work with WeBuilder..

But I gues that isn't the same as the install from the Blumentals site as I have now installed that as well, and the FireFox preview is now working.

Thanks for your help,

Graham
