Exporting into a browser

beorn · 01-30-2019, 11:51 AM

I commish some online leagues, and for time out of mind, I have exported the preseason predictions to my bowser, Firefox, and then put that page on the server so everyone in the league could look at it, now and into the future.

However, this morning OOTP exported into Edge, which complicates things. I do not think I changed any settings, and my laptop continues to have Firefox set as the default browser. I loath Edge and do not want to spend time trying to get it to do what I want.

Does anyone know of a setting within OOTP which controls this? I cannot find it.

This really shouldn't matter. The browsers all read .html files and don't have proprietary file extensions, so one shouldn't open over another, especially on someone else's machine.

Guess I am not sure what you are saying.

Edge is being used by OOTP, although Firefox is my default browser. I'm trying to figure out how to get OOTP to use Firefox.

Check to make sure that .html files are specifically associated with Firefox. Just because it's your web browser doesn't mean that the file associations are correct (see step 3 below):
