MackDiesel2010 Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 Mucking around with the right click menu through windows registry to open a link I right-click on and select in a proxy server. Basically, the /MenuExt key of internet explorer in the registry allows for these kinds of links/functions. I have a key pointing to a javascript file that attempts to open a new window, with the url formatted for the proxy server. The code is: <script LANGUAGE="JavaScript" defer> //Get url var url = external.menuArguments.document.location.href.URL; var regex = /^http:\/\//; if(! regex.test(url)) { url = "http://" + url; } array1 = url.split("//"); var url=array1[1]; // 1st open a new, 2nd work in the current. open(window.location.href='proxy '+url); </SCRIPT> As you can see, it opens a new window with the part of the url after the "http://" and uses an IE quicksearch (proxy) to go to my server. However, I get a "Permission Denied" error when I run it. Internet Explorer doesn't like that I am attempting to get the url of another browser window. Other programs that add themselves to the right-click menu to do this sort of thing use vb scripts or monitoring programs, both of which I am unfamiliar with. Any way to do this? Basically right click a link and open that link in a new window, formatted slightly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
