Description Opens the specified URL in the specified browser.

Arguments fileName, {browserName}

	The first argument is the name of the file to be opened, expressed as an absolute URL.
	The second argument, added in Dreamweaver 3, is the name of a browser as defined in the Preview in Browser preferences. If omitted, this argument defaults to the user's primary browser.

Enabler None.

Example The following function uses dreamweaver.browseDocument() to open the Hotwired home page in a browser:

	function goToHotwired(){ dreamweaver.browseDocument('http://www.hotwired.com/'); }

	In Dreamweaver 3, you can expand this operation to open the document in Internet Explorer using the following code:

function goToHotwired(){
  var prevBrowsers = dw.getBrowserList();
  var theBrowser = "";
  for (var i=1; i < prevBrowsers.length; i+2){
    if (prevBrowsers[i].indexOf('Iexplore.exe') != -1){
      theBrowser = prevBrowsers[i];
      break;
    }
  }
  dw.browseDocument('http://www.hotwired.com/',theBrowser);
}
