Can't reproduce. What is the browser you configured in the preferences ?

In my operation system, google chrome is my default web browser.
in zim 's preferences -> applications -> web browser, if default(os) or default(webbrowser) selected, the type error occur, if firefox or google chrome( initially not displayed in the drop menu, then i added it) selected, everything is ok.

my zim is chinese version, so if something i describled is wrong, please forgive me.

I suspect this may be related to an issue I'm experiencing...

If I type a url like http://zim-wiki.org, the "Edit Link" dialog shows the correct url, but the url it tries to open is missing a forward slash, so it tries to open http:/zim-wiki.org.

Here is a screenshot: http://i.imgur.com/vA6Qp.png

I'm using http://browserchooser.codeplex.com/ which shows me the url before it tries to open it.

I've seen the report before (but can't find the old bug report
immediately). This is a windows specific issue outside of zim. Try
configuring the web browser in the preferences to a specific browser.
For the previous user that reported this issue that fixed it.

Thanks, that did work. I guess I didn't read bruce's comment.

Actually, using Default (webbrowser) worked for me.

Fixed in version 0.58
