Do you *really* need to open a browser, or do you actually want to get the
data from the webpage?
If the former, see the other reply, if the latter, something like this
should do the trick:
import urllib
urlobj = urllib.urlopen('http://example.com/something.cgi?var1=value1&var2=value2')
html = urlobj.read()
