Browse file local HTML files on Jaguar

[Sannyasin Sivakatirswami]

Anyone have a solution to this: not a Rev problem really, but an Apple 
one:

The chosen web browser app in the Internet prefs will not, by default, 
be used
as the app to launch any local text file: e.g. 
"file:///volumes/someMountedServervolume/folder/index.html"

Instead the Mac OS is now "forcing" a local text file to be launched in 
TextEdit, regardless of
the internet browser preference selection, even though it is an *.html 
file.

Anyone know a way to force the file to open in a browser. I suppose one 
could  use a
Tell application "Omniweb"
  open some file
end tell

But I was wondering if someone knows how to config the OS to do this so 
we can stick with revGoURL?
I can't find that old "helpapps" matrix we used to have in OS9... I  
could just be missing something.
