[Tutor] Webbrowser

[Øyvind]

Hello.

I have recently discovered the Webbrowser module, and have started using
it instead of just using IE thru win32com. But, have a few questions:

1) Is it possible to give it an adress, and if the browser gets a redirect
to a different adress, I can override it? For example, I tell the browser
to open a site. The browser tries, but gets redirected to a spam-site. I
would therefore like to send the user somewhere else. Is it possible?

2) It doesn't seem like open(url[, new=0][, autoraise=1]) new and
autoraise work with Firefox. I have tried all possible comboes, but the
site is opened in a new tab in Firefox regardless. Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance,
Øyvind

I would assume it's a permissions error. Can you execute
/opt/firefox/mozilla-firefox-bin? Is python running as a different
user?

[Tutor] [webbrowser] some help on an error running mozilla firefox

[Rinzwind]

Why does this:  import webbrowser  webbrowser.open('http://www.google.com)give me this: run-mozilla.sh: Cannot execute /opt/firefox/mozilla-firefox-bin.
Is this bacause 'webbrowser' does not know about the identification of 1.5?(I do not want to do it like this:  import os  os.system ('firefox 
http://www.google.com')bacause not all of us use firefox :) )Oh and can I, when I open a new browserwindow, force it to open in the same workspace as I am with my pythonprogram and not inside another workspace where I have a browser window open?
Any enlightment would be appreciated :-)

[Tutor] Webbrowser module

[mjp]

I am using the webbrowser module to open a URL in Mozilla. My question
is what happens when I exit from Mozilla. I have a script running on a
Desktop with WindowsXP and a Laptop also with windowsXP In the first
case return from Mozilla is to the function containing the webbrowser
command ,in the other case it restarts the whole script.
