Actually, Netscape realized this so their 1.1 version sends the original
URL to the external browser. They added a %u tag to the mailcap, which
gets replaced with the URL. So the mailcap for WebSpace, for instance is:
/usr/sbin/webspace -remote %s -URL %u
So I assume you're using an older Netscape, or another browser. Get
Netscape 1.1 (available from the same places as WebSpace Beta 1) and
things should work fine...
I believe the TGS people have dealt with this also. Apparently other
browsers (like Spyglass) on the PC and Mac supply this information.
