Question

How do I open a web browser in Windows Phone 7? I don’t care if it is the default browser or an embedded browser, though if both are possible I would like to know.

Answer 1

Windows Phone Forums > Windows Phone 7 > Open web browser

If you want to open the built-in IE Browser then you need to use
WebBrowserTask object.

To do this add references to Microsoft.Phone and
Microsoft.Phone.Tasks. You can then launch the IE Browser using the
following code:

WebBrowserTask wbt = new WebBrowserTask(); 
wbt.URL = "http://www.google.com";  
wbt.Show();

If you want to embed a browser window inside your application then use
the WebBrowser control. Add an instance of the WebBrowser control to
your form then you can reference it in code using the name you give
it. (Default name is “webBrowser1”)
