[Rails] Re: Invoking browser from Ruby script with URL argument: How?

Hi 7-stud,

Long time no "see". Thanks for looking into my question.

Yeah, I know, but my question is how to repair my code so that it
works. Or more specifically, what command can I take which accepts
the text of a URL as an argument and invokes my browser with that
command as an argument?

Do you have a further idea? I greatly appreciate learning any other
idea you might have on the question.

Best wishes,
Richard
