Hi Omkar,

Use the following code:

1) 'OpenBrowser.java'
import javax.swing.*;
import java.lang.reflect.Method;

public class OpenBrowser {
public static void openURL(String url) {
String osName = System.getProperty("os.name");
try {
if (osName.startsWith("Windows"))
Runtime.getRuntime().exec("rundll32 url.dll,FileProtocolHandler " + url);
else {
String[] browsers = {"firefox", "opera", "konqueror", "epiphany", "mozilla", "netscape" };
String browser = null;
for (int count = 0; count < browsers.length && browser == null; count++)
if (Runtime.getRuntime().exec(new String[] {"which", browsers[count]}).waitFor() == 0)
browser = browsers[count];
Runtime.getRuntime().exec(new String[] {browser, url});
}
}
catch (Exception e) {
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Error in opening browser" + ":\n" + e.getLocalizedMessage());
}
}
}

2) 'Browser.java'
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.event.*;

public class Browser {
public static void main(String[] args) {
JFrame frame = new JFrame();
JPanel panel = new JPanel();
final JTextField url =new JTextField(20);
JButton button = new JButton("Open Browser");
button.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
OpenBrowser.openURL(url.getText().trim()); }
} );
frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
panel.add(new JLabel("URL:"));
panel.add(url);
panel.add(button);
frame.getContentPane().add(panel);
frame.pack();
frame.setVisible(true);
}

}

Thanks
