Open URL in default web browser - JavaServer Faces application

843802Mar 5 2008 — edited Mar 6 2008
Hello,

I got a problem opening an URL in my web application. It's built using NetBeans and Visual Web Pack, and runs on a TomCat 5.5 server.

I've tried several methods for opening an URL in a new web browser window but havent succeded yet. (ex. Checking for os, and if windows, then using runtime; rt.exec( "rundll32.exe url.dll,FileProtocolHandler " + url);)

Are there anyone who knows a good way to open an URL in a client's default web browser from a server side web application?


Thanks in advance
