Terry J. Reedy <tjre...@udel.edu> added the comment: The intended method of using a non-default browser is well documented and the OP did exactly the right thing. However, even if Opera is present, the 'right thing' does not work because nothing but iexplorer gets registered (and that not completely usefully), even if present on the system, because the registration code is buggy, as discussed in #10799.
Hirch, if you had clicked Search and entered 'webbrowser' in the 'All text' box, you could have found that report. If you add a note to #10799 as to the exact default location of Opera (within Program Files, I presume), it might eventually help. ---------- components: +Library (Lib) nosy: +georg.brandl, terry.reedy resolution: -> duplicate status: open -> closed superseder: -> Improve webbrowser.open doc (and, someday, behavior?) type: -> behavior _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue12237> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
