How can you create/open a browser window from GTK?
 

I'm messing with GTK+ 2.0 on RedHat linux at the moment and I need to find out if there is a way to open a standard browser (from a pulldown MenuItem from my toolbar).

Is there tricky programming?

exec() family of library functions
 

I do not think that there is a Gtk+ call to do what you want. I recommend you use one of the library functions like execl, execlp, etc. This is routine programing.

Found it!
 

Thanks, jailbait. I've found a solution.

I simply use the "system" command. ie,
int system(char *cmd_string) and it works like a charm.

ie. statusbool = system("mozilla http://.....");

Then I can test statusbool for system errors (eg. mozilla didn't exist)
