Setting Up Helper Applications

You can set up most Web browsers to use helper applications - when the browser can't open a document itself, it sends it to a helper application. This happens with sounds, pictures, and movies. You can also set it up to use Sketchpad and Cabri to open sketches and macros.

Each Web browser uses a different process for defining helper applications. Choose the one you're using (this section is under construction). If you use a browser that isn't included here, drop me a line and we'll see what we can do.
