How do I lauch a Browser with a specified URL through a Java Application on click of a Button.
I have tried in many ways like :
* Making a applet an application as well as applet.
* creating an instance of applet in a frame , adding it to frame and explicity invoking init amd start.

Allowing a java app to control another program has to be done through the use of the java.lang.Runtime class.

Use something like

new Process pBrowser = new Runtime.exec("c:\netscape\comm\program\netscape.exe www.yahoo.com");

of course, you have to supply the correct command string to run

new Process pBrowser = new Runtime.getRuntime().exec("c:\netscape\comm\program\netscape.exe www.yahoo.com");
