There is a definition in the default Dictionary.xml file

         <FmtHtmlHomeBrowser T="If you are using Internet Explorer and have &lt;a href='http://www.genopro.com/'&gt;GenoPro installed&lt;/a&gt; on your computer, you may &lt;a href='{0}' title='{1}'&gt;click on this link to view the genealogy tree within your browser&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;a href='{0}'&gt;&lt;img border='0' src='images/gno.gif' align='absmiddle' alt='{1}' width='16' height='16' /&gt; &lt;/a&gt;. " />

I changed the code a little bit to produce German texture in the html this way

         <FmtHtmlHomeBrowser T="Wer den Internet Explorer benutzt und &lt;b&gt;&lt;a href='http://www.genopro.com/beta/'&gt;GenoPro 2.0&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/b&gt; auf seinem PC installiert hat, kann &lt;a href='{0}' title='{1}'&gt;&lt;b&gt;auf diesen Link klicken &lt;/a&gt;&lt;/b&gt;um sich unseren Familienstammbaum runter zu laden und dann offline anzuschauen bzw. als Basis für einen eigenen Stammbaum zu benutzen." />

which now produces html like this in the home.htm

Wer den Internet Explorer benutzt und <b><a href='http://www.genopro.com/beta/'>GenoPro 2.0</a></b> auf seinem PC installiert hat, kann <a href='FamilyTree.gno' title='Ansicht Stiefel-Betschel Stammbaum im Browser'><b>auf diesen Link klicken </a></b>um sich unseren Familienstammbaum runter zu laden und dann offline anzuschauen bzw. als Basis für einen eigenen Stammbaum zu benutzen.

which still offers the download of the FamilyTree.gno file because if the frontend link is hovered in

 it shows this address  

http://www.erhardt-stiefel.de/stammbaum/english/FamilyTree.gno

but the Internet Explorer (IE7.0) offers a .zip file instead of a .gno  !!!

I tried this also with different sources e.g. http://familytrees.genopro.com/maru-san/Juels/

from different servers with different PCs and different browsers with no locical results.

E.g. this html code looks exactly like mine

Falls Sie den Internet Explorer benutzen und haben <a href='http://www.genopro.com/beta/'>GenoPro</a> auf ihrem Rechner installiert, können Sie <a href='FamilyTree.gno' title='Ansicht Family/Familie JUELS, STUHR and others im Browser'>auf diesen Link klicken</a> <a href='FamilyTree.gno'><img border='0' src='images/gno.gif' align='absmiddle' alt='Ansicht Family/Familie JUELS, STUHR and others im Browser' width='16' height='16' /> </a> um sich den Gegenealogie Familienstammbaum innerhalb des Browsers anzuschauen.
<br />

and it produces the same

and when I hover the link it is alike

http://familytrees.genopro.com/maru-san/Juels/FamilyTree.gno

but the result is this

Who has an explanation for this behaviour of GenoPro 2.0.1.1 which was different in version 1.0?

It might be possible that the server you are using is not familiar with the gno format and is assuming it is a zip format, which is partially correct. Please check with your ISP.
I cannot try the download behavior due to the protection built in.

Internet Explorer 7 wants to download the .gno file instead of opening it.  If you uncheck the option "Vor dem Offnen dieses Datetyps immer bestätigen", you may be able to see the .gno file in your browser.

By the way, a .gno file is a .zip file.  If you rename the .gno file to .zip, you will be able to see the file Data.xml in an archiver.  It is possible the browser has an automatic detection algorithm and discovers the file FamilyTree.gno is a zip archive.

My ie7 under XP opens the gno file as a compressed folder, even if you click out the tickmark.

We are considering 'removing' the .gno file from the report.  When GenoPro was designed, back in 1997, it was a good idea, however the concept of Active X has become the nexus for viruses and trojans.  As a result, Internet Explorer now blocks most Active X, including GenoPro.

The good news however is the reports now include the family tree in SVG format, so the need to have the .gno file in the report is less important as it used to be.  Of course, we would still keep the .gno file in the report because it is a good 'backup' in case something happens, however we may not put a link to the .gno file from every individual.

I found out that the Problem is not server dependant by trying to download the FamilyTree.gno from a GenoPro server. It is possible but not as user friendly as in version 1.0 (I'm using IE7 and XP Pro)

Example:

This link http://familytrees.genopro.com/maru-san/Juels/FamilyTree.gno  offers me a .zip file

Opening the file by clicking at the "Öffnen"-Button downloads a compressed Data.xml

Extracting this file an renaming to Familytree.gno gives the wanted result

 

I don't think that my relatives want to use this procedure to see the tree completely as it was possible by just one mouseclick before.

So maybe its just an Internet Explorer Option which has to be changed but which one?

This is because of Internet Explorer 7.  I use Internet Explorer 6 and the file FamilyTree.gno opens in my browser directly from the link above.

By the way, we are working on a collaboration module, so your family will be able to view your .gno file directly from GenoPro.  You will add the emails of the family members you wish to grant access, and the family membes will be able to open the .gno file.

Ok, that means in your next version you should remove the part in your default Dictionary.xlm which offers this possibility

<FmtHtmlHomeBrowser T="Those who use the Internet Explorer and have installed &lt;b&gt;&lt;a href='http://www.genopro.com/beta/'&gt;GenoPro 2.0&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/b&gt; on their PC, may &lt;b&gt;&lt;a href='{0}' title='{1}'&gt;click to this link &lt;/a&gt;&lt;/b&gt; to download our familytree for offline viewing or to use it as a base for their own familytree." />
