Openbox application settings

Hello Archers!  I'm feeling pretty stupid right now, as I can't figure this out...I just switched from Fluxbox to Openbox, and when changing over all my settings, I have run into a problem.  I can't get Firefox 3 to acknowledge the <application> part of my rc.xml:

<application name="Navigator" class="Minefield" role="browser">
      <decor>no</decor>
      <desktop>2</desktop>
      <maximized>yes</maximized>
      <skip_taskbar>yes</skip_taskbar>
    </application>

And, just for comparison, my old Fluxbox conf works with the following settings:

(name=Navigator) (class=Minefield) (role=browser)

So I'm pretty sure I'm using the correct class, name, etc...
Also, I don't think there's any sort of syntax problem because I have a couple sections after the Firefox section which all work fine.  So...yeah, I don't know what else to try...

Thanks for any/all help!

Re: Openbox application settings

Try a search through the forums, this has been covered before (specifically for Firefox 3)

Hrmm... don't know what keywords you used, but when I search the forums for minefield and openbox, I get this:

http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=45618

xprop is giving wrong info hmm

the correct one is:
Code:

<application class="Firefox-bin">
  <desktop>2</desktop>
  <decor>no</decor>      
  <maximized>yes</maximized>
</application>

Re: Openbox application settings

Yeah, thanks, I searched again and found that post.

Sadly, though, it still doesn't work. (although Firefox 2 get's picked up by those settings)
