R: Open specified url in browser.

BROWSE {httr} | R Documentation

## Open specified url in browser.

### Description

(This isn't really a http verb, but it seems to follow the same format).

### Usage

    BROWSE(url = NULL, config = list(), ..., handle = NULL)

### Arguments

`url` | the url of the page to retrieve
`config` | All configuration options are ignored because the request is handled by the browser, not RCurl.
`...` | Further named parameters, such as `query`, `path`, etc, passed on to `modify_url`. Unnamed parameters will be combined with `config`.
`handle` | The handle to use with this request. If not supplied, will be retrieved and reused from the `handle_pool` based on the scheme, hostname and port of the url. By default httr requests to the same scheme/host/port combo. This substantially reduces connection time, and ensures that cookies are maintained over multiple requests to the same host. See `handle_pool` for more details.

### Details

Only works in interactive sessions.

### See Also

Other http methods: `DELETE`, `GET`, `HEAD`, `PATCH`, `POST`, `PUT`, `VERB`

    BROWSE("http://had.co.nz")
