Hi all,

I use ie7, when I click a bib file from within ie using the following
url:

http://prola.aps.org/export/PRB/v69/i9/e094306?type=bibtex

the IE will open this file by JabRef. But I want to this file be
opened with IE itself.

What should I trick IE for me to do that thing, at the same time, the
bib file will still be opened by default with JabRef outside IE?

Hi
IE opens a URL, the URL can be an Internet page, or a files saved in few
formats that IE was disjoined to open (Like, simple text file, few graphic
formats etc.).
If the kind of file that you are looking at was not designed to be opened in
IE there is No way to open it unless the producer of the File provides you
with special plug-in.
Maybe this can Help,

Perhaps you misunderstand me to some extent. In my case, I've JabRef
installed, so the url I posted here will be opened by JabRef by
default. This is not the case I want, i.e., I just want it be opened
within ie instead of by using the JabRef even I've JabRef installed.

Regards,
