Getting java gui to open a webpage in web browser

If you’re using Java 6 or above, see the Desktop API, in particular browse. Use it like this (not tested):

// using this in real life, you'd probably want to check that the desktop
// methods are supported using isDesktopSupported()...

String htmlFilePath = "path/to/html/file.html"; // path to your new file
File htmlFile = new File(htmlFilePath);

// open the default web browser for the HTML page
Desktop.getDesktop().browse(htmlFile.toURI());

// if a web browser is the default HTML handler, this might work too
Desktop.getDesktop().open(htmlFile);
