AW: AW: [opencms-dev] External Links not working in NetscapeandFireFox

Thu Apr 28 18:20:02 CEST 2005

Hi Nick,

we had the same problem in OpenCms Version 5. Changing the link name to
*.html (from: "externalLink" to: "externalLink.html") solved the problem as
well.

Just in case you need another solution.

Thanks, that is exactly what we did 5 min ago :) No export any more for
external links! Thanks again for the skilled help!

Bye
Nick
