Description yadav 2010-07-22 23:31:16 UTC

in my rails project, i would like a way to turn off a new browser opening everytime i run my project. it get annoying for me to have to close a new instance of the browser each time.

a) please put in a new setting "none" under tool > options > general > web browser 

this setting should prevent a external browser being launched each time

b) a better fix would be to be able to check if a browser is already opened, or was previously launched by the ide and not keep launching new instance each time

I think this should be addressed on the side of the Rails project, which is consistent with the way it is done for Java webapps and PHP.
