C#: Launch URL from inside a windows application

C#: Launch URL from inside a windows application

• YeeBoon

  ok

  In that case 1 method to do this is how you have the above code, with a minor adjustment to the string targetUrl.

  string url = "http://www.google.com";

  should work for you.

  Hi UsingBytes,

  I would like the end users browser to pop up with the specified url. I plan on publish my app to the end users machine, if that helps

  Thanks.

  Hello,

  How are you wanting this to be implemented

  Are you using a browser control in your form (a web browser will open within your application)

  Or are you wanting to use the end-users browser (form will use external browser)

  Hi,

  So I should try the following:

  private void button8_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)

  {

  string url = "http://www.google.com";

  System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(url);

  }

  Thanks.

  Yes that should work for you.

  using System;
  using System.Collections.Generic;
  using System.ComponentModel;
  using System.Data;
  using System.Drawing;
  using System.Text;
  using System.Windows.Forms;
  using System.Net;

  namespace Test
  {
  public partial class Form1 : Form
  {
  private string url = http://www.google.com;
  
  public Form1()
  {
  InitializeComponent();
  }
  
  private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
  {
  System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(url);
  }
  }
  }

  Essential you were correct, you just need to remove the @ symbol
