Does the remote machine have a webserver? You could set your urlhandler to append the URL to a bookmarks-style file, then just navigate to that page locally, and click the last link. Or it could even rewrite an .htaccess so that a particular location automatically redirects to the most recent url processed by urlhandler, and then you have a bookmark to that location on your local browser. If you have no web server, you could try to feed it into a 'mozilla -remote' somehow. If you only have one-way connectivity (you can only connect _to_ the remote box, and not initiate a 'reverse' connection), you could just have the urlhandler dump the URL in a file in a known location, and run a script locally that does something like 'mozilla -remote "openurl($(ssh remotehost cat urlfile))"' (that's just for proof of concept; I'm sure it wouldn't run as is -- especially not without being more careful about quotes). Anyway, just a few ideas. I don't think you're SOL just yet. Of course, for the particular URL in question, this much will suffice: http://jobsearch.monster.com/getjob.asp?JobID=18496386 =) good times, Vineet -- http://www.doorstop.net/ -- #include<stdio.h> int main() { puts("Reader!
