This is not true if your mailcap file is set up correctly.
Netscape 1.1S sends the real URL to webspace through the mailcap.
Do you have netscape 1.1S?
Does your /usr/local/lib/netscape/mailcap have this entry?
x-world/x-vrml; /usr/sbin/webspace -remote %s -URL %u ; \
description="VRML document"
Note the %u gets filled in by netscape.
We are very much opposed to the idea of putting
DEF BASE Info {
string "http://www.artcom.de/vrml/welcome.wrl"
}
into each .wrl file. This mechanism would be a nightmare
to maintain if files are ever moved. Also, this Info would
have to exist in every inline file in the case that those
files are viewed on their own.
