Ok I hope I'm not wearing my welcome thin here with all my questions but I have another.

It looks like the LinkMode 'lemWebLink' will try to automatically put an http:// in front of the URL if it doesn't see http:// Any ideas on how to set it up so that an https:// URL is acceptible?

Does it not accept a URL entered with a https prefix? You could always code you own by using a PopupEdit. Then you could launch the URL how ever you needed to.

The https://address.com value is accepted in the field, but when you click the icon to launch the brower SalesLogix must do some string validation and add an http:// to the beginning of the URL if it is not found.

Sounds like a defect to me. At least the effort to use the PopupEdit would be minimal (although still a pain to have to worry about a workaround)

*Edit* My english stinks lately.

The problem really is just that the control places a http:// in front of the string before passing it to the browser. There isn't a way to turn that off without using another control. If there was an OnBeforePopup event you could just hook your own process to fire the web browser and keep the linkedit from doing it's own thing, poorly.

I think the problem is that even when Marc actually enters "https://" in the control, that when launched, it will change to "http://", like it is ignoring the protocol for the link as entered by the user and just placing a http in front. No good.

You're right. Here's proof:

The link is https://www.blah.com
IE shows http://https//www.blah.com

This is on the Account Detail's web linkedit control in 6.2.3.

Quite nice. Quite nice indeed. Hehe. Somebody apparently overlooked https when they built this one.
