[Zope] Using Mozilla with Zope

[Tim Edwards]

I've tried starting one instance then starting another and switching
profiles, but it doesn't work - when you 'Switch Profile' it switches the
profile for every open browser window, leaving me back where I started.
Unfortunately I'm on Windows so I don't have the flexibilty of X servers.

I use Debian Linux and KDE, so this may not be directly applicable to
you, but . . .

I have used Konqueror + Mozilla, Galeon + Mozilla, and Konqueror + Galeon
to do this.

I've also tried running Mozilla on two different accounts or two different
computers.  That is to say, working from a laptop, I start one Galeon or
Mozilla locally on my laptop, and start one on my desktop via ssh -X from
the laptop.

I think you can also do this on one computer by using two different users,
but I'm not sure how you get both to be able to use the X server (probably
a lot like the ssh -X case, though).

Then again, Mozilla has an "Identities" feature (sort of like usernames
within
the program).  Can you not just launch Mozilla with Identity "A" and then
another with Identity "B"?  That seems like that ought to work.

Cheers,
Terry
