--- Comment #4 from David Gurvich david.gurvich@verizon.net 2007-10-26 09:05:52 --- After login screen enable 'Options->Classic view' right-click on username select 'Edit profile' # different screen pops up from non-classic view 'BB$ Account'->'Authorize' #A deposit window pops-up 'Click here to purchase BBO$' With 0.9.45 a new window does open. With 0.9.46 & 47 it doesn't. I've been using classic view and my previous install of Bridge Base stores that setting.
I can't recreate the problem for links that don't work except for the deeply nested one in classic view for 'BB$ Account'. I think my problem is solved. If I want to access that change to non-classic view.
If I have a browser open, clicking on a working link gives an error message "no child processes" and opens 2 identical windows. With no open browser there is no error and only 1 window opens. Should that be a new bug report?
Incidentally, if anyone was wondering why a news window pops open or doesn't, there are settings in bbover.ini, 'LINUX_WINE' and 'BROWSER_TYPE'. The 'LINUX_WINE' setting no longer has any effect. However, if 'BROWSER_TYPE' is set to 'E', external, the news window no longer works. In classic view, there is a news button on the upper right that pops up a useless notification/ad. Also supposed to pop up on initial login with either view. I'd been looking for a way to disable it before as I find it annoying.
