[Ieview] IE View on Mac OS X

[Timothy Hammerquist]

I had a bit of trouble getting IE View to launch pages in Safari, and I 
tried a half dozen variations, but here's how it worked, for inclusion in 
the FAQ:

Because of how OS X applications work, invoking a .app package directly 
doesn't work.  So simply entering "/Applications/Safari" fails.

Using a value of "/Applications/Safari/Contents/MacOS/Safari" (a full path 
to the actual binary) will open Safari, but may not open the correct page, 
and creates a separate instance of Safari for each invocation.

The following worked for me on Mac OS X 10.4.8 in Firefox 1.5.0.7 using IE 
View 1.3.1:

IE Location: /usr/bin/open
Arguments: -a Safari

Note: because the tested version of IE View Lite does not have a separate 
arguments field, this does *not* work.

HTH,
Tim
