iexplorer syntax

[jh]

What is the syntax for a command line launch of a url with iexplorer?

 

[Vinod Chandramouli]

Here's a simple way you can run Internet Explorer from the command
line...
Create a new text file that contains the following line:

@start "" /b "C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe" %*

Rename the file e.bat

Copy this file to your profile folder

C:\Documents and Settings\your_account_name

Now you can open a command prompt window and type the following

e www.google.com

This will start Internet Explorer and open the URL for www.google.com

That's a bit much when all that is needed is to type
start www.google.com or what ever url is needed.

This simple syntax is all I have ever needed:
iexplore url
e.g.
iexplore www.riverside-cottage.com

That only works if you are in the Internet Explorer directory or C:\Program
Files\Internet Explorer is in your path statement.
