    Opening the Default Browser

    Simply put, does anyone have suggestions for the best way of opening the user's default web browser with a specified page?

    To give you an idea of what I'm doing, I'm setting up the main menu for my game with a "Visit game website" option. I've already written a quick HTML file that redirects to the site, so just being able to open this file from the game would be enough.

    First method that came to mind was the Vitalize! action "Open URL in a new window".

    It works in normal standalone applications and uses the default browser.

    Good idea - but is there a Vitalize object available for MMF2 yet?

    It is a default object, so yes.

    So it is - I just checked the list again and there it was. =/

    To do list for today: Refresher course on the alphabet; trip to the optician.

    Thanks, Joshtek.
