Is there a good way to access browser like IE and run an HTML file from within Python code?

Would running Python server-side work? Apache supports Python as a web development language. You can generate HTML on the server, and then browse that in IE.

This works with Windows only ...

# acts like double-clicking the filename in Windows file manager
# starts the associated program and loads the file

import os

# default file path is the current directory
os.startfile("test2.htm")

I know you can use this to open IE6 but i do not know if it will open html files

import webbrowser
url = http://www.google.com # I presume you can open html files
webbrowser.open(url)
