Comments: How to open a URL in the default browser

If you ever wondered if there is an easy way to open a URL from your Java program in the user-default browser, with Java SE 6 there is. Unless your platform doesn't support this. The good news is that you can test if this is the case or not.

Yes, it's quite easy in java 1.6 But how about java 1.5? I've found just this one:

AppletContext a = getAppletContext();
URL url = new URL(link);
a.showDocument(url,"_blank");

Unfortunately it's not for desktop applications.
