java.lang.Object | +--com.objectwave.viewUtility.BrowserControl
A simple, static class to display a URL in the system browser. * * Under Unix, the system browser is hard-coded to be 'netscape'. * Netscape must be in your PATH for this to work. This has been * tested with the following platforms: AIX, HP-UX and Solaris. * * Under Windows, this will bring up the default browser under windows, * usually either Netscape or Microsoft IE. The default browser is * determined by the OS. This has been tested under Windows 95/98/NT. * * Examples: * •BrowserControl.displayURL("http://www.javaworld.com") •BrowserControl.displayURL("file://c:\\docs\\index.html") •BrowserContorl.displayURL("file:///user/joe/index.html"); Note - you must include the url type -- either "http://" or * "file://".
