10.8: Open a specific browser based on the URL

Maybe the handle's scheme doesn't match the link scheme (?)
Make sure the registered scheme is set exactly to 'http' (not HTTP or http:)

10.8: Open a specific browser based on the URL
Authored by: jcmurphy on Sep 15, '14 09:47:48AM

i did give this a try again but ran into the same issues. The AppleScript I used was exactly as above (no changes whatsoever). All http & https web pages went right to Safari. Links to https://mail.google.com did the same.

I also tried test-http, test-https but that was a disaster. LinCastor went into a forever loop quickly adding hundreds of LinCastor generated notification windows (similar to its small notification window at startup.) I could not force quit anything and had to lean on the power button to shut-down the computer.

I will contact the author.
