Edit with FrontPage from IE

G

Gary Contois

I wasn't sure where to post this question so please feel free to point me in
the right direction. I am currently trying to use the 'Edit with' feature in
IE which calls a program and passes in the current path of the file you are
browsing. I noticed that if you use this feature it usually calls the program
and passes the path of the temporary location of the file. BUT, when you use
Edit with FrontPage, FP seem to know what server and url info.
Any one know why this is different with FP? I would like to call a custom
program and have the url info passed from IE instead of the temporary path.

Any help is appreciated.

That action is supported by FP because it supports command line parameters
- no different than running the FP executable from Windows Explorer and passing the URL as a parameter

But IE seems to send the url to FP but the temporary path to other editors.
I want IE to send the url to my custome program instead of the temporary
path.
