Launching a web browser window

by Tim Perreault · in Torque Game Builder · 10/07/2009 (8:25 pm) · 4 replies

Is it possible to launch the default web browser to a specified URL via button click? I've been looking through the documentation, but I haven't found anything yet.

Could someone point me in the right direction?

Regards,
Tim

I assume by "button click", you mean clicking on an object. You'll have to set the object to receive mouse events and then write a "onMouseUp" function. At that point, you'll need the gotoWebPage function.
