C# starting Opera process

kappolo

I want to start in C# a process of Opera web browser with a given URL.
I'm using Windows Mobile 5 and Opera 9.5 Beta
Ive tried the following code (working of Internet Explorer)

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

 System.Diagnostics.Process proc = new System.Diagnostics.Process();

proc.StartInfo.FileName = "iexplore";

proc.StartInfo.Arguments = "http://www.google.com";

proc.Start();

I've tried to change "iexplore" in "opera" or "opera.exe" but no success at all.
Can you please give me a hand?

Process.Start("firefox.exe", "http://www.google.com");

//or specify path

//Process.Start(@"C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe", "http://www.google.com");
 
//OR 

ProcessStartInfo ind = new ProcessStartInfo("firefox.exe", "http://www.google.com");

//ProcessStartInfo ind = new ProcessStartInfo(@"C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe", "http://www.google.com");

  Process.Start(ind);

The method you are using is correct, but the file names your are using seem to be wrong.

You're going to have to find the path and name of the executable file and use the full path and name.

By default, the path to the Opera browser is:

C:\Program Files\Opera\opera.exe

So then on a mobile device it would probably be
\Program Files\Opera\opera.exe

Aha! Good catch Plater :)

I wondered where this post came from, just realised you moved it. Did the above solution of kicking off the \Program Files\Opera\Opera.exe work?
