open url from DOS

#1 Post by svorgodne » 14 Jun 2013 01:34

I know it´s possible to open an URL from DOS as follows:

start "" "http://www.example.com"

and it will open the website with the default browser. But I want to open in a new window, not a tab, something like in html language would be:

target:_blank

I have also been looking for the rest of the parameters, like:

no menu
specific window size
specific window position


It's for advertising purposes.

can anybody help me?

The only way I could think of doing that is if you could somehow run a second instance of the browser. I don't know, but there may be a way to feed an html file to start with the target parameter in there. Try that and see what happens.
