webbrowser.open() opens absolute path +URL instead of URL

Python Syntax (Toggle Plain Text) 
  1.  url='http://www.google.com'
  2.  webbrowser.open_new_tab(url)


This should open the google.com webpage, but instead it attempts to open :

"file:///u/guest/python/%22http%3A//www.google.com%22

guest is my username, and /u/guest/python is where I execute the script from .


Could you please tell me why this is happening ?



Thanks
