You can't.

Well, possibly you can, but it's more complex than I can set up quickly.
You'd need to code something that would generate an appropriate url and
pass it to your web browser, and to generate the url you'd need to know
where under your document root the file was, so you would have to:

1) find the actual file system path to the file
2) compare to the file system path for docroot
3) if the leftmost part of the filesystem path matches the docroot path,
remove it
3a) convert from windows to url format paths if appropriate
4) add the http://localhost/ in place of the removed part
5) call the web browser with the url

eg if the file is:

c:\documents and settings\jim higgins\testing\htdocs\test1\phpinfo.php

and the apache docroot is:

c:\documents and settings\jim higgins\testing\htdocs

then you need to invoke a browser with the url:

http://localhost/test1/phpinfo.php

It's probably possibly on a linux box with a bit of scripting, I have no
idea how to do it on a windows box, but personally, I want php files on
the server to open in my text editor when I double click them.
