don't need IE
Authored by: serres on Mar 15, '02 12:29:40PM

strange that you need internet explorer for this. actually mac os x finder is somehow overeager to save dropped text as location files. dragging the "afp:.." text from omniweb to the desktop creates a location file here.

i sometimes try to drag a whole bunch of urls to the desktop to have a text clipping, but the finder saves only a location file for the first url found.

not sure if this transmits passwords in clear text. i'd think that the engine responsible for mounting the volume should be the same as via "connect to..." and so take care of your clear text setting.
