Hi all,

I am trying to call web-browser in my java desktop application. I
succeeeded in calling webpage which is at the localhost but when i
tried to access any other website say http://www.google.com it gave an
error saying page not found. What might be the problem ?

Can anyone help me out with the same?

Are you behind a proxy? If so you have to set the java properties..

System.getProperties().setProperty("http.proxyHost ", "your proxy
host");
System.getProperties().setProperty("http.proxyPort ", "your proxy
port");

Don't forget to "set" the proxy to true!
