I am using the following code to open a browser from my java application

try {
Runtime RTime = Runtime.getRuntime();
Process Proc = RTime.exec("cmd /c start iexplore Mysite.com");

System.out.println("Error");

OK,my problem is the above code will open the site in IE only, i want to open the page in any browser(Default browser) supported by the system, what should i do for this (The broswer can be IE/Netscape/Opera etc)

Strange..isnt it??

You are using start iexplorer and expect the default browser to open... :)

use
String url = "http://www.aminur4u.tripod.com";
Runtime.getRuntime().exec("rundll32 url.dll,FileProtocolHandler " + url);


this will run fine for windows....

Now what abt other OS??

check the site
