I need to display a webpage from my app but I can't seem to find anything to launch the browser.  I also don't see anything to do a http post other using sockets. Are there no higher level network libs?

Can anyone point me to the rough area I need to look in for this.  My game is finished I just need a way to launch the browser to show my high score page and a http post to send it.

Hello,

With respect to launching the browser, there is some information in the following thread regarding invoking other applications:

HTTP requests are set to be handled by the native browser, therefore something like the following should allow you to launch the browser to a URL:

navigator_invoke("http://www.google.ca/", 0);

 With respect to HTTP/Socket connections, the following thread may be of use:
