I ve written a simple extension for Safari that captures clicks on the RSS button in the address bar (calls to the feed:// protocol) and redirects to Google Reader instead of Safari s feed reader. If, however, the user has a Fluid app (one that opens Google Reader) set as their default feed reader the intercept doesn t work.
Is there any known way to capture a request that s being sent to a different app? The extension currently keys on document.beforeload(), but if the document is being opened in a new "app", it s never reached, of course.
Is there a different event I can catch? I haven t found a comprehensive list of events that extensions can catch.
Thanks.
