How do i Hyperlink to a web page from a java application?

How do i Hyperlink to a web page from a java application using internet explorer as my default web browser?

It's very simple.You can start any Application with the class Runtime. The command is an array consisting of the path of .exe and the file to be open.
String [] cmd={path of IE+Filename.exe,"URL of your website"}
try
Runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmd);
catch (Exception e)
System.err.println(e.toString());
}

Launch a default web browser from my java application

Hello,
I have been trying to launch my default web browser from my java application, but am unable do it. Right now, I am using ---- "Runtime.getRuntime().exec("cmd /c start <url>"); to launch my webbrowser. It launches the browser but displays the command prompt for a second or so, and then replaces my already existing page with the new url.
Is there any way for me to launch the url in a completely new browser each and every time. And I don't want the command prompt to show up for a sec. Please help...!
Thanks in advance.

If by any chance your application is an Applet, you can use this to open a new browser window:
getAppletContext().showDocument(new URL(theUrl), "_blank");
But, you probably would have specified if that were the case. Oh well. Hope it helps someone!

The system exec function is on the Communication palette. Its for executing system commands. On my Win2K system, the help for FTP is:
"Ftp
Transfers files to and from a computer running an FTP server service (sometimes called a daemon). Ftp can be used interactively. Click ftp commands in the Related Topics list for a description of available ftp subcommands. This command is available only if the TCP/IP protocol has been installed. Ftp is a service, that, once started, creates a sub-environment in which you can use ftp commands, and from which you can return to the Windows 2000 command prompt by typing the quit subcommand. When the ftp sub-environment is running, it is indicated by the ftp command prompt.
ftp [-v] [-n] [-i] [-d] [-g]
[-s:filename] [-a] [-w:windowsize] [computer]
Parameters
-v
Suppresses display of remote server responses.
-n
Suppresses autologin upon initial connection.
-i
Turns off interactive prompting during multiple file transfers.
-d
Enables debugging, displaying all ftp commands passed between the client and server.
-g
Disables file name globbing, which permits the use of wildcard characters (* and ?) in local file and path names. (See the glob command in the online Command Reference.)
-s:filename
Specifies a text file containing ftp commands; the commands automatically run after ftp starts. No spaces are allowed in this parameter. Use this switch instead of redirection (>).
-a
Use any local interface when binding data connection.
-w:windowsize
Overrides the default transfer buffer size of 4096.
computer
Specifies the computer name or IP address of the remote computer to connect to. The computer, if specified, must be the last paramete
r on the line."
I use tftp all of the time to transfer files in a similar manner. Test the transfer from the Windows command line and copy it into a VI. Pass the command line to system exec and wait until it's done.

Help about opening a PHP page from a Java application

Hi,
I would have some elements to open a PHP page from a little Java application I'm doing. I would like to know the classes I had to use, how to implement them, ...
In fact, I dial into my application my login, my password, and when I click on by "Connect" button, I must show the PHP page corresponding ti my profile onto the database. Picking up information from the database is not a problem, I know how to use SQL Packages in Java. The problem is to open a new page (IE or Netscape) when clicking on the "Connect" button in my application.
Thanks a lot for advice me.

Hi
This class is from JavaWorld Tip 66 and I've used it to open web pages and files in a browser.

* A simple, static class to display a URL in the system browser.
* Under Unix, the system browser is hard-coded to be 'netscape'.
* Netscape must be in your PATH for this to work. This has been
* tested with the following platforms: AIX, HP-UX and Solaris.
* Under Windows, this will bring up the default browser under windows,
* usually either Netscape or Microsoft IE. The default browser is
* determined by the OS. This has been tested under Windows 95/98/NT.
* Examples:
BrowserControl.displayURL("http://www.javaworld.com")
BrowserControl.displayURL("file://c:\\docs\\index.html")
BrowserContorl.displayURL("file:///user/joe/index.html");
* Note - you must include the url type -- either "http://" or
* "file://".
public class BrowserControl
     * Display a file in the system browser. If you want to display a

How do i prevent my open web pages from being deleted when the system is being restarted

Do you mean pages that are reopened in tabs via session restore?
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Session_Restore
Make sure that you do not use [[Clear Recent History]] to clear the 'Browsing History' when you close Firefox.<br />
If you use [[Clear Recent History]] to clear the 'Browsing History' when you close Firefox then restoring tabs from the last session ("Save & Quit" or "Show my windows and tabs from last time") doesn't work.

How can I launch a web browser from my Java application?

I've reed about this at Question of the Week (http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/qow/archive/15/index.html). It doesn't work for me. I'm running win2000 and trying:
try {
Runtime.getRuntime().exec("start iexplore http://java.sun.com");
} catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println( e.getMessage() );
I get:
CreateProcess: start iexplore http://java.sun.com error=2
What's wrong?

This function will launch the default browser under Windows.
public static void displayURL(String url) throws IOException   {
    String cmd = null;
    Process p;
    try {
        String os = System.getProperty("os.name");
        if (os != null && os.startsWith("Windows")) {
            if (os.startsWith("Windows 9") || os.startsWith("Windows Me")) // Windows 9x/Me
                cmd = "start " + url;
            else // Windows NT/2000/XP
                cmd = "cmd /c start " + url;
            p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmd);
    catch(IOException x)        {
        // couldn't exec browser
        System.err.println("Could not invoke browser, command=" + cmd);

Open URL in Web Browser from a Java Application

Hi,
I have an HTML document that I want to load in a browser window by clicking on a button in my java GUI application.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

You can use the Process class to start the web browser with the proper command line arguments (depends on the web browser though). Or on windows, you can have your program create a batch file with the code start url (where [url] is your url), and this will open the default web browser when run (again you must run it with a Process).

Captivate 6: Can I hyperink to a web page from an image?

In Captivate 6, can I hyperlink to a web page from an image?

You can fill a smart shape with the image using the Texture button, but beware: choose a shape with the same size as the image. Maybe Sreekanth is telling the same, but I didn't get his 'assign custom image to it'? And if you want to have a pause for a shape button, you have to check it in the Timing accordion.
Another approach is to put a click box on top of the image. You can open the URL in another window using the small triangle drop down list, and be sure to uncheck Continue Project to avoid that the playhead will continue.

Access existing web pages from '08?

Here's the deal - I have had web pages set up with iWeb '06 w/Tiger, no problem. I installed (on a separate disk) Leopard, and iLife 08. So, if I boot from my Tiger disk, all is well, I can edit my web pages using iWeb '06.
When I boot to my Leopard drive, and use iWeb '08, it just comes up to the default 'choose your layout' - it knows nothing about my existing .Mac web pages.
How do I open my existing web pages from a different drive / partition using iWeb '08, that was created from iWeb '06 on a different boot drive?
Many free beers await the first person to help me out on this. Thanks,
John F

Hi John,
Have a look at the following page
http://transfer.iwebfaq.org
The only thing that changes for you is that you're transferring it from one drive to the other instead of from one computer to another.
Please make a backup of the file before getting your site into iWeb '08 (and after if it was successful). Be sure to update the iWeb application before opening your website with it (get it to version 2.0.2)
And note that once you updated the site to iWeb 2.0 it can't be edited in iWeb '06 anymore.
I don't drink beer sorry...
Regards,
Cédric
