Open webpages from an ahk button

[Shoal]

I was wondering if anyone could help me with some code to open a website when a button is pressed on the GUI.
for example, I want a button like this:

Code: Select all

Gui, Add, Button, x5 y50 w200 h20 ,Example

to open a website.

Code: Select all

#SingleInstance, Force

Gui, Margin, 5, 5
Gui, Add, Button, x5 y50 w200 h20 gButton1, Example
Gui, Show, AutoSize, Example
return

Button1:
    Run, http://www.google.com/
return

You need to attach a subroutine to the GUI command in the options for this to work:

Code: Select all

Gui, Add, Button, x5 y50 w200 h20 gRun, Example ; gRun tells the button to run the subroutine "Run" when it is pressed
Gui, Show ; Shows the GUI button
return ; Stops the script from running the webpage before the button is pressed

Run: ; Specifies the start of your subroutine
Run, https://www.google.com ; Opens google.com in your default web browser

FYI, you do not need a button to do this, there is a special GuiControl for links
Gui, Add, Link, , <a href="http://google.com/">Google</a>
