Alas, no. Maemo does not have a central system for this so many apps just hardcode the usage of the default browser to open a link.

One way to go about this problem is by simply asking one of the many Nokia developers who are within the community and are actively discussing within the community - how we could eventually do it

You can simply do it by changing what's inside the osso_rpc_async* or osso_rpc_run* functions of your favourite application. This assumes, however, that the program in question is open-source and the browser you wish to change to does not have broken DBUS methods.

I made a enhancement request in the fennec bug tracking system:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=499904
Please feel free to comment and correct the entry.

I'm also very interested in this. I wrote a small, rough script that uses dbus-launch to start it. Now I need to know how to implement it.
Can anyone help us? Point us in the right direction?
@qwerty12 so I'm guessing that to modify osso_rpc_async* or osso_rpc_run* functions we have to get the source code for applications like osso_addressbook, modify it, compile it, and replace what we currently have? --yikes a little out of my leage

Code:
#!/bin/sh dbus-launch midori "$*" exit 0

Well, you can modify xiojason's script here, but use other means for opening the browser, not dbus. It is a startup proxy after all.

Well, Midori probably can't be launched with DBus or if it can, then not with these arguments. Try running it with a simple commandline like
As far as the commandline help goes, you can probably launch it with several addresses or even with a javascript file.
Code:
midori url

This means the other browser (for me: fennec) should open if I select a link in modest or mauku or the feed reader or wherever.
Is there any possibility to do this for all applications in a central place?
