– System Setup ——————————-
Operating System and version: Mandrake 10.1
Eclipse version: 3.0.0
Eclipse build id: 200406251208
Fresh Eclipse install (y/n): Y
MyEclipse version: 3.8.3 GA
Eclipse JDK version: 1.42_03
– Message Body ——————————-Within the preferences there is a new feature to set up a default/installed web browser and pass it parameters.
How do I use the “parameters” option with reference to opening :
1) A particular project – Say if I am working on a struts project and always want to go to the home page when I hit the toolbar button “Open MyEclipse Web Browser”?
2) A particular page – Say if I am working on an html file or jsp file and I want this file to be opened when I hit the toolbar button “Open MyEclipse Web Browser”?
I had a search through the documentation and can only find reference to the fact that this new feature (MyEclipse Web Browser) was available but nothing on how to use it.
thanks a lot for a great product and great continued support

Can you clarify where you are seeing this? I don’t see a parameters box anywhere (I’m running 3.8.4 RC2, soon to be released).
Preferences>MyEclipse>InternetTools>WebBrowser
Click on Add to add a new browser
Or, Click on Edit to change an existing added browser
and in both dialogues you will see the following Fields:
– Name
– Location
– Parameters[Answer removed after dev investigated and got back to me]
Turns out that these settings only effect the toolbar’s “browser” button, not the “Web Browser” view, additionally the “parameters” field is exactly what you would imagine it to be, but currently it isn’t exactly being honored so the dev is looking into fixing it. After it is fixed, you will likely be able to setup that button with a parameter like:
http://www.mysite.com/mypageand every time you click the web browser toolbar button, it will popup that browser with that page (which I think is what you wanted, right?)
