webbrowser open failing

[Thomas]

HI

Thanks for the help.

I tried that , now getting a different error

 >>> test=open("/Volumes/TINTZ;P3/DT Hot Folder  
test/Justin_Test.pDF","r")
 >>> type(test)
<type 'file'>
 >>> webbrowser.open("file://Volumes/TINTZ;P3/DT Hot Folder  
test/Justin_Test.pDF")
Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
   File  
"/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.3/lib/ 
python2.3/webbrowser.py", line 43, in open
     get().open(url, new, autoraise)
   File  
"/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.3/lib/ 
python2.3/webbrowser.py", line 314, in open
     ic.launchurl(url)
   File  
"/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.3/lib/ 
python2.3/plat-mac/ic.py", line 235, in launchurl
     return _dft_ic.launchurl(url, hint)
   File  
"/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.3/lib/ 
python2.3/plat-mac/ic.py", line 202, in launchurl
     self.ic.ICLaunchURL(hint, url, 0, len(url))
MacOS.Error: (-43, 'File not found')


it on shared network.. I found that its working fine on the files n the  
local hard drive..

cheers
