My first Chrome bug

Written on the original Movable Type site and recovered from the Internet Archive.

Well, other than the usual that many sites won’t support it because it is not identified as IE or Firefox. That isn’t so bad, because if you say go ahead anyway, Chrome does a fine job. No this one is on evite. When you click on “add to my Outlook Calendar”, it tries to open an evite.vcs file. Chrome opens the file in a browser window and shows you the plain text (the wrong answer). Firefox gives you an “open with” prompt suggesting MS Outlook (the right answer). Not a bad bug and I bet with poking around in configuration I could fix it, but that is a bit of a rookie mistake.
