how to put web page link of forum attachments/discussion right into the vi downloaded

Hello,

 

I use this forum a lot and download attached examples / vis. but after few days when i reopen the vi, i would like to be able to go the same webpage where i have read and downloaded that example to re-read the discussion to understand better if i forget.

 

in the mozilla downloads window, right click on an item gives option to "go to download page" which only remains until cleared.

 

is it possible to automate the process of putting the discussion webpage link right into the vi downloaded. either by using labview itself or any other ideas??

 

i think this will be very useful for all..

 

Thanks,

Hi freemason,

 

copy the link into a free label... It's not the same as a link, but you can always copy&paste the link back to your webbrowser!

Best regards,

Hi freemason,

 

I can think of using VI scripting for that functionality - but I don't have any experience with it...

 

AFAIK you can create text labels by using scripting, so it should be possible to copy the clipboard content into a label by calling a tools menu item. It should also be possible to "read" the currently selected label (using scripting)and call IE with the link...

Best regards,
GerdW
