             Bug #: 34423
           Summary: Star Trek Online won't display options menu
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.7.1
          Platform: x86
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: alexhenrie24 at gmail.com
    Classification: Unclassified


After opening Star Trek Online, if you click the Options menu, a Wine Internet
Explorer window opens at the address "app:3" and you never get the Options
menu.

Installing ie8 from winetricks gets around the problem.

Star Trek Online creates an IEframe showing
http://launcher.startrekonline.com/launcher_login. This page contains the
following link which is supposed to bring up the Options menu in the launcher:

<a target="_blank" href="app:3">Options</a>

Interestingly, if you fool the Star Trek launcher into loading a different
page, one that has the same link but without the target="_blank", it works! To
do so:

1. Add "127.0.0.1 launcher.startrekonline.com" to /etc/hosts

2. Set up Apache. Create the file /var/www/launcher_login with the content "<a
href="app:3">Options</a>".

3. Launch Star Trek Online.

Now when you click the Options link, you'll get the Options menu just as
expected. This seems to indicate some problem in the way Wine handles
target="_blank" for custom URI schemes. On Windows, a new Internet Explorer
window doesn't appear at all.
