Having just discovered the webbrowser module, I've confirmed that I can indeed open a URL in my default browser using something like
webbrowser.get_new("{URL}") What I want to do is open a web page stored on my local machine. I'm not getting it to work - webbrowser.open_new("C:\__Library\folders\05238 Design for Confusion\05238 Design for Confusion -05krugman.html") Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Program Files\ActiveState Komodo 3.1\dbgp\pythonlib\dbgp\client.py", line 3149, in runcode locals = self.frame.f_locals) File "C:\Program Files\ActiveState Komodo 3.1\dbgp\pythonlib\dbgp\client.py", line 1569, in runcode h_exec(code, globals=globals, locals=locals, module=module) File "C:\Program Files\ActiveState Komodo 3.1\dbgp\pythonlib\dbgp\client.py", line 516, in __init__ exec code in globals, locals File "<console>", line 0, in __main__ File "C:\Python24\Lib\webbrowser.py", line 46, in open_new get().open(url, 1) File "C:\Python24\Lib\webbrowser.py", line 250, in open os.startfile(url) WindowsError: [Errno 2] The system cannot find the file specified: 'C:\\__Library\x0colders*38 Design for Confusion*38 Design for Confusion -05krugman.html' Can you suggest what I might be doing wrong here? -- t. ====================================================== Tom Cloyd Bellingham, Washington, U.S.A: (360) 920-1226 << BestMindHealth.com / [EMAIL PROTECTED] >> ====================================================== Using Opera's revolutionary e-mail client (program): http://www.opera.com/mail/ _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
