IE6 fails to open image by ftp

[sinha.ashish]

void VistaMedia:: playBrowser()
{ mp=new QProcess(0);
QString program = "IEXPLORE";
mediaPath="ftp://user:userpasswd@"+ipaddress+"/media/3.bmp";
QStringList argu;
argu<<mediaPath;
mp->start(program,argu);
}



This code fails to open image in the browser, also not from the command prompt, but working fine and showing the image when i open it by typing same address at the address bar of the browser.Whats the problem then ??????

Maybe the process is not started at all?

If you use Qt4 you could try:

QDesktopServices::openUrl(QUrl(QString("ftp://user:userpasswd@"+ipaddress+"/media/3.bmp")));

QDesktopServices::openUrl(QUrl(QString("ftp://user:userpasswd@"+ipaddress+"/media/3.bmp")));

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode

even using above showing "page cannot be displayed" error

Maybe the url is incorrect. What does qDebug() << ipaddress display?

Ipaddress is correct and working fine if i type it in address bar of the browser directly,but fails when opening image from command prompt or from QProcess in my program.
I wonder mplayer is playing remote files by ftp from the command as"mplayer ftp://user:userpasswd@199.100.100.1/media/F_1.avi") fine at command prompt but IEXPLORE.exe fails.
as("IEXPLORE ftp://user:userpasswd@199.100.100.1/media/3.bmp")
