opening multiple browser windows

Question

i need to find out how to open multiple browser windows. currently i use: ProcessStartInfo sInfo = new ProcessStartInfo(url); Process.Start(sInfo); where url is a string which is the url i want to open up. the url passed varies however and i don't want the program to open url1 and url2 in the same browser window (which is what is happening at the moment). what i want is for url1 to be opened in one browser window then url2 to be opened up in a second separate window. how do i do this? anyone have ideas?

even though this started with my own posting i thought i should let people know that i found a solution and if you are having the same problem maybe you would appreciate what i worked out. it was very simple: String filepath = C://IEXPLORE.EXE //or whatever the filepath is to the IE executable String url = http://www.yahoo.com; //or whatever URL you are trying to open up ProcessStartInfo sInfo = new ProcessStartInfo(filepath url); Process.Start(sInfo); you can put this in a loop if you want with different URLS and each is placed in it's own separate browser window. even though this might not automate the use of the default browser I've found that C# can't handle mozilla firefox browsers anyway so it's best just to specify IE for use. hope this helps future people!

Hello Uisng Process.Start(ProcessStartInfo) will reuse the existing process the process existing. There are other overloaded Start method you can use to generat different process. Hopefully this help.
