does 'dillo' have a configuration to mark it as _default_?

Not that I could find.

does it have anything similar to firefox's about:config?

open firefox, in url bar, enter;

    about:config

search for;

    checkdefaultbrowser

note setting.

It shows Status default type boolean Value false -- as I think it
should.

ok. try changing it to true, then when firefox opens, tell it not
to be to see if that changes things.

i have never used anything for browsing other than firefox, so i
am not aware what will happen during opening with setting of true.

if it works, great. if not, then you need to ask thru support
for  xfce4.

i am tending to believe that it is a problem with xfce4 and not
a fault of fedora or firefox.

open link;

    http://kb.mozillazine.org/Firefox_:_FAQs_:_About:config_Entries

	OK, I got that far.

<ctrl+f>, enter;

Did those; don't see anything happen.

could be because you did not enter search word.

    checkdefaultbrowser

to find setting description.

Here, if not before, you lose me. What was "<ctrl+f>, enter"
supposed to do??

as tim said, it opens a search bar at bottom of window, where in
you enter search word/s.

when applied on page link above, it would find the description for
"checkdefaultbrowser"

all of which was so that you would see what settings do.

more about firefox as default;

    http://kb.mozillazine.org/Default_browser

You do understand, nicht wahr?, that I am trying to get *RID* of
the default to Firefox??

very well understand. links where for you to see how default is
set and how it is used.

i guess it was a bit of 'tmi'.

i know what a 'dildo' is, but i am not familiar 'Dillo', so i ask
if 'Dillo' has config settings to make it default?
