I’m trying to provide links from within the HTMLViewer to open up the App Store app to my listing but I seems to have trouble getting it to launch using HTMLViewer.
I tried the “https://” link which I got from the “View in App Store” from iTunesConnect and that just open up the page in HTML Viewer. This link works correctly in Safari.
Tried replacing it with “itms://” or “itms-app://” but nothing happens.
What’s the right way to get that done ?
Thanks
Here is what I do to show all my apps :
http://appstore.com/mac/michelbujardet
Christmas fonts :

Maybe you need to tell HTMLViewer how to proceed with Links which like to open a new Window?
Actually, I use ShowURL with the links I posted, which launches Safari and opens the App Store.
As far as I know HTMLViewer cannot open App Store directly.

Same here.
True. For security reasons, i assume.
macappstores://itunes.apple.com/us/artist/ohanaware-co.-ltd/id436335296?mt=12
Will open the link directly in the App Store application.

ShowUrl with that url should do it

I tried the macappstores:// link directly and it didn’t seems to work.
But using Norman’s method, I added this code inside the CancelLoad and it launches as it supposed to be
if left(url,13)="macappstores:" then
ShowURL url
Return true
end if
Thanks
