in reply to run IE from the Perl script

I'm not sure that this is the most efficient way to do it, but this seems to work. 

use strict;

system (1,'start http://www.msn.com:8080');

[download]

I tested it and it opened a new tab for me in Firefox, but that's my default browser, so if IE is your default, it should be fine.

HTH!

Revolution. Today, 3 O'Clock. Meet behind the monkey bars.

I would love to change the world, but they won't give me the source code
