How to invoke IE

[LovelyAngel]

Hi all,

I am working on a java application and I want it to invoke the IE to show the specific web page such hotmail.com. Can anyone tell me what to do.
Thank you.

There are a couple of way to do this:

Runtime.getRuntime().exec("cmd /c start [URL unfurl="true"]www.hotmail.com");[/URL]
Runtime.getRuntime().exec("start [URL unfurl="true"]http://www.hotmail.com/");[/URL]
Runtime.getRuntime.exec("IEXPLORE [URL unfurl="true"]http://www.hotmail.com");[/URL]
Runtime.getRuntime().exec( "rundll32 url.dll,FileProtocolHandler [URL unfurl="true"]www.hotmail.com"[/URL] );

*** here is an Example w/code ***

import java.io.IOException;

public class StartIEFromJavaExample
{
	public static void main(String[] args)
	{
		String newLine 	= System.getProperty("line.separator");
		try
		{
			Runtime.getRuntime().exec("start [URL unfurl="true"]http://www.google.com/");[/URL]
			System.out.println ("Started IE from Java");
		}
		catch (IOException ioe)
		{
			System.out.println("The was a problem starting IE:" + newLine + ioe);
		}
	}
}

Hope this help you...
