WWWBrowser(3pm) 					User Contributed Perl Documentation					   WWWBrowser(3pm)

NAME

       WWWBrowser - platform independent means to start a WWW browser

SYNOPSIS

	   use WWWBrowser;
	   WWWBrowser::start_browser($url, -oldwindow => 1);

DESCRIPTION

   start_browser($url [, %args])
       Start a web browser with the specified URL. The process is started in background.

       The following optional parameters are recognized:

       -oldwindow => $bool
	   Normally, the URL is loaded into a new window, if possible. With "-oldwindow" set to a false window, "WWWBrowser" will try to re-use a
	   browser window.

       -browser => $browser
	   Use (preferebly) the named browser $browser. See "CONFIGURATION" for a some browser specialities. This option will only work for unix.

CONFIGURATION

       For unix, the global variable @WWWBrowser::unix_browsers can be set to a list of preferred web browsers. The following browsers are handled
       specially:

       lynx, w3m
	   Text oriented browsers, which are opened in an "xterm", "kvt" or "gnome-terminal" (if running under X11). If not running under X11,
	   then no background process is started.

       kfmclient
	   Use "openURL" method of kfm.

       netscape
	   Use "-remote" option to re-use a running netscape process, if possible.

       _default_gnome
	   Look into the "~/.gnome/Gnome" configuration file for the right browser.

       _default_kde
	   NYI.

       The following variables can be defined globally in the main package:

       $os Short name of operating system ("win", "mac" or "unix").

       &status_messages
	   Error handling function (instead of default "warn").

REQUIREMENTS

       For Windows, the Win32Util module should be installed in the path.
