Nautilus opens HTML file in mail client dependent on HTML XMLNS tag
I have the following strange problem:
When I double-click a HTML file I'd like to see the file in the web browser (of course).
However sometimes Nautilus will open the E-Mail client (Thunderbird) and add the file I double-clicked as attachment instead of starting the web browser and showing the HTML file.
I found out that Nautilus obviously parses the xmlns= attribute in the <html> tag and starts the E-Mail client if the attribute is correct; it starts the web browser if the attribute is incorrect or missing:
- If the tag in the HTML file is
<html>, the file will be opened in the web browser. - If the tag in the HTML file is
<html xmlns="http://this-site-does-not-exist.example/hello/world">, the file will be opened in the web browser. - If the tag in the HTML file is
<html xmlns="this-is-invalid-syntax">, the file will be opened in the web browser. - If the tag in the HTML file is
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">, Nautilus will open the E-Mail client and add the HTML file as attachment.
I'd like Nautilus to open all HTML files without exception in the web browser.
How can I manage this?
Thanks.
