UNC Paths with the Web-Browser control don't work. What can I do to solve it?

This can be solved by adding the "No-Msg-Before-Navigate" style to your web-browser control, or iscobol.gui.webbrowser.no_msg_before_navigate=true in your configuration file.

This style prevents the generation of the MSG-BEFORE-NAVIGATE event and it is useful in a few different scenarios, including when the web-browser is used to browse disk folders referenced by a URL that begins with “file://”.
