My default browser is IE 6 and "Launch in IE" works fine. "Launch in Firefox" does not work although I have this as a usable browser. Do I have to change my default browser to Firefox before this option will work? Hopefully you'll suggest another method...

An edit to the above post...I have tried using the code the double quotes. It is being converted to HTML in my post, which is odd since Sourceforge states: HTML tags will display in your post as text.

Since upgrading to 5.0.3 I am unable to open/display a file in Firefox. I've compared the current shortcuts.xml file to the backup, tried using both the standard double quotes around FULL_CURRENT_PATH and also ' "', neither works, I can't open a file when there is a space in the folder name (which on Windows, is pretty often).
Notepad++ has stopped "encasing" the path to the file. I don't believe it's Firefox's fault, as I can double click an .html, .htm. or .php file and it opens perfectly in FF.
I was also able to launch files from Notepad++ in Firefox fine *before upgrading to 5.0.3*.
From my shortcuts.xml file:
<Command name="launch in Firefox" Ctrl="yes" Alt="yes" Shift="yes" Key="88">"$(FULL_CURRENT_PATH)"</Command>
<Command name="launch in IE" Ctrl="yes" Alt="yes" Shift="yes" Key="73">iexplore "$(FULL_CURRENT_PATH)"</Command>
Again, I've tried the following 3 "fixes", one which worked the last time this happened, now none work:

Not necessary.
It works for me, it seems that the path of firefox is not in %PATH%.

I'm on XP, Firefox 2.0.0.16, if it matters.
