Hi Ista,
I see. Your advice works. Thanks
even without:
browser="C:/Program Files/Internet Explorer/iexplore.exe")
For non default browser it needs;
browser="C:/Program Files/Mozilla Firefoe/firefox.exe"
What will be "file:" used for?
B.R.

Hi Stephen,
I'm not sure if this is the problem, but you almost certainly do not
want the "file:" part. Try
browseURL("http://www.r-project.org";)
