need batch help again...

i am trying to open a web site in iexplorer with a batch since its not compatible with my defult opera browser, all i get is it opened in my defult browser which isnt compatable with the site heres what i have so far:

start "C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplorer.exe" http://www.925kgb.com/cc-common/ondemand/player.html?world=st

i can't get this to work properly is there a way to make sure it wont open in my defult browser?:confused

im a noob at batch so all help and criticism is welcome

 

ok i put in what you have and it opens in firefox for me But i put in "iexplore.exe" and its happy you have "iexplorer.exe"
look like you have a R in there thats not needed

 

Hi red death68,

hacker183 is right. The application of Internet Explorer is iexplore.exe.
But also the syntax of START isn't right. The first string in quotation marks is the window title. You don't need it thats why use "".
Look at this:

Code:

start "" "iexplore" "http://www.925kgb.com/cc-common/onde....html?world=st"

or for a maximized window:

Code:

start "" /max "iexplore" "http://www.925kgb.com/cc-common/onde....html?world=st"
