I'm having a problem with Netscape Communicator and
telnet/tn3270 applications. Apparently, Netscape is passing
the entire URL to the helper app, rather than just the domain
name. In other words, Netscape issues this command line:
c:\winterm\winterm.exe telnet:\\whatever.com
instead of:
c:\winterm\winterm.exe whatever.com
The telnet app dutifully reports that it could not resolve the
host name "telnet:"
Any suggestions on what I'm doing wrong?
