Opening Websites

[Ellie]

Hi, I asked this ages ago but nobody knew ':| So I'll ask again now, as need has cropped up again.

I need to know how to, through RGSs, open up the default web browser to a specific web page. That means if the player has set the default webpage through windows to be Firefox, it will open Firefox. If Internet Explorer, etc.

Thanks.

off the top of my head..
Its like:

exec "iexplorer.exe"(www.website.com)

Its years since i say this code, but i think that might be it.

how would we use this? use an event and call script command? becuase that didn't work for me.

Here's a little explanation on using exe files. http://milkey.net/~rpgxp/rgss/call_exe.html
Now, I don't know how to call the default system browser, but you could use the FileTest module to see if there is a Firefox browser installed on a certain path, and if it isn't use the IE.
