Does the Xhtm plugin run on Windows Vista? Does it work with XnView 1.92?

Any idea why it doesn't work for me under Vista? all htm, html etc. files keep their icon instead of showing the preview; inserting or removing their extensions in the Browser|File list options doesn't change anything.

I have copied the XnView folder from my XP machine, where it worked, and have maintained all the same settings. Both on my old XP and new Vista I have Avant Browser as the default browser (an IE shell) and IE7 installed.

I just tried to switch back IE as the default, but no change... apart from PDF files losing their preview also

and getting it back when I restored Avant as the default browser. Really cannot understand...

Installing Ghostscript (the latest, 8.61) as suggested here http://newsgroup.xnview.com/viewtopic.php?p=13481#13481 was useless.

Sorry for the long string of posts, but I'm reporting as I'm testing and checking the issue. Don't know if it may be of interest, but neither the working installation on the XP machine nor the Vista installation display the Xhtml plugin in the Info|Plugins dialog... should it appear alongside the others even if it's a .usr plugin and not a "native" .dll plugin?

Works fine for me one Windows XP. Some hints for trouble shooting:

1 - The HTML plug-in must be unpacked in Subfolder .\Plugins

2 - By default the HTML plugin displays preview or image view of the HTML, but no thumbnails are shown (probably for security reasons). If you want to see thumbnails for HTML, HTM, MTH, ... files, you have to open Tools > Options > Browser > File List and activate the appropriate checkboxes for "Custom files".

- Please note that the HTML plugin is NEVER listed as plug-in or add-on in Info > Plug-Ins Information.

- FAIK, the HTML plugin uses the IE control or API to render the HTML. There's no need to install GhostScript.
