Description Michal Jaegermann 2002-10-24 23:38:18 UTC

Description of Problem:

Contrary to available documentation mozilla 1.0.1 in Preferences
editor shows only a blank window for "Helper Applications".  Therefore
it is impossible to find out what mime types are available, which
applications are handling it and attempts to override these "in blind"
also fail (setting are ignored and built-in helpers are used regardless).
As there is also no text file one could try to edit then user is left
high and dry.

Red Hat Linux is no longer supported by Red Hat, Inc. If you are still
running Red Hat Linux, you are strongly advised to upgrade to a
current Fedora Core release or Red Hat Enterprise Linux or comparable.
Some information on which option may be right for you is available at
http://www.redhat.com/rhel/migrate/redhatlinux/.

Red Hat apologizes that these issues have not been resolved yet. We do
want to make sure that no important bugs slip through the cracks.
Please check if this issue is still present in a current Fedora Core
release. If so, please change the product and version to match, and
check the box indicating that the requested information has been
provided. Note that any bug still open against Red Hat Linux on will be
closed as 'CANTFIX' on September 30, 2006. Thanks again for your help.
