    [SOLVED] Create link to url

    Hello everyone!

    I just tried to manually create a url link on my desktop. Once I tried to activate it, it asked me a question with two choices, about how it should handle the link.

    Since I didn't really understand what it meant, I just clicked apply, with the default option selected. Here's the problem: instead of opening the url in Firefox's url textbox, it opens the file as a textfile instead of a url. Here's what it looks like:

    I went into system settings > Personalization > Applications and I looked around, without any success.
    I tried to find an answer with duckduckgo, however I can't find any.

    Any ideas? Thank you for your time!

    I don't know how you created the link. But if I bookmark some page in firefox, then drag the bookmark to the desktop, a link gets created there.

      Thank you jlittle, it worked like a charm! I didn't even have to bookmark it, I just dragged the address bar to the desktop, and then clicked "link here".
