265506 - Hyperlink in Crystal Report Viewer bring up Firefox but does not go to correct site.

Status: RESOLVED EXPIRED

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Deb Allen]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20041001 Firefox/0.10.1
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20041001 Firefox/0.10.1

The hyperlink "http://finance.yahoo.com/q?d=t&s=GE" works correctly when entered
directly to Firefox.  It also works within Crystal Reports.  But when running
the Crystal Report Viewer from Visual FoxPro, it bring up Firefox (my default
browser) but does not go to the correct website.  If I change my default browser
to IE 6.0, it works correctly.  I'm using VFP 7.0, Crystal Reports 8.5.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set default browser to Firefox.
2. Run Crystal Report from VFP.
3. Click Hyperlink on the Crystal Report.

Actual Results:  
Firefox is opened.  The message "Resolving host %1" appears in the status bar. 
Instead of going to the correct site, it goes to "http://www.mozilla.org/". 
(This is not my home page.)

Expected Results:  
Firefox should have opened and gone to "http://finance.yahoo.com/q?d=t&s=GE"
site, which is the hyperlink in the Crystal Report.
