I found a non-Qt way of doing this in python. It is simple enough to connect the action to a function that calls webbrowser.open(). Python rules!

But I believe the class you want is QDesktopServices

Subject: [PyQt] Menu Item Opening Web Page?

Is there a way to create a QAction object (aka, what is created when you add an item to a 
menu bar in Designer) that links to a web page?  For example, I want to create a 
"User Documentation" menu option that will just open up a specific web page 
using the default browser.  Qt must have some sort of smarts for this because if I create 
a hyperlink in a text field it will do just that.  I'm just trying to figure out how to 
do that with menu options.  Any thoughts?
