None of this is tested. Its just ideas. 1. You can execute the system command: system("$path_to_firefox . $url"); eg system("C:\Program Files\Firefox\firefox.exe http://www.gmail.com"); Or it might require: system("C:\Program Files\Firefox\firefox.exe" http://www.gmail.com); The point is, I think if you invoke the Firefox executable (Windows or Linux) with a URL as the parameter, it will do what you want.
2. I think Windows has an API to let you open a URL in the default browser. I forget the details. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://learn.perl.org/
