Hi all, I got following requirement, Opening a browser window only with body and title bar. And based on some condition, after some time, i have to close the browser window.

I tried with following code. But it opens the browser with menu bar, address bar and etc. And I don't know how to close this browser window. Please help me in resolving this problem.

• Here is my code:

  import javax.swing.JOptionPane;
  import java.util.Arrays;
  
  
  public class BareBonesBrowserLaunch {
      //"google-chrome", "firefox", "opera", "epiphany", "konqueror", "conkeror", "midori", "kazehakase", "mozilla" 
  
  
  static final String[] browsers = {"Microsoft Internet Explorer"};
  
  
  static final String errMsg = "Error attempting to launch web browser";
  
  
  public static void openURL(String url) {
    try {  //attempt to use Desktop library from JDK 1.6+
       Class<?> d = Class.forName("java.awt.Desktop");
       d.getDeclaredMethod("browse", new Class[] {java.net.URI.class}).invoke(d.getDeclaredMethod("getDesktop").invoke(null),new Object[] {java.net.URI.create(url)});
       //above code mimicks:  java.awt.Desktop.getDesktop().browse()
       }
    catch (Exception ignore) {  //library not available or failed
       String osName = System.getProperty("os.name");
       try {
          if (osName.startsWith("Mac OS")) {
             Class.forName("com.apple.eio.FileManager").getDeclaredMethod("openURL", new Class[] {String.class}).invoke(null,new Object[] {url});
             }
          else if (osName.startsWith("Windows"))
             Runtime.getRuntime().exec(
                "rundll32 url.dll,FileProtocolHandler " + url);
          else { //assume Unix or Linux
             String browser = null;
             for (String b : browsers)
                if (browser == null && Runtime.getRuntime().exec(new String[]{"which", b}).getInputStream().read() != -1)
                   Runtime.getRuntime().exec(new String[] {browser = b, url});
             if (browser == null)
                throw new Exception(Arrays.toString(browsers));
             }
          }
       catch (Exception e) {
          JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, errMsg + "\n" + e.toString());
          }
       }
    }
  
  
  public static void main(){
    BareBonesBrowserLaunch.openURL("url");
  }
  }
  

Thanks & Regards, Suresh.
