Hello Axel,

thank you for your help, It seems to solve the problem because the browser now attempts to open from the correct domain, but I have another problem that the Office Plugin crashed in Firefox and Chrome, Safara is also not working and IE seemingly have no reaction of clicking "Edit online"
