Hello

I know this has probably been done 1000+ times before, and i can just go to <url> and donwload a plugin that does excactly what i am trying to do, but that is not going to teach me how to make Eclipse plugins Smile

I have this code:
package com.doc.ext.views;


import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Composite;
//import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.MessageBox;
//import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Shell;
//import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.List;
//import org.eclipse.ui.browser.IWebBrowser;
//import org.eclipse.ui.browser.IWorkbenchBrowserSupport;
import org.eclipse.ui.part.*;
import org.eclipse.swt.browser.*;
import org.eclipse.jface.viewers.*;
import org.eclipse.swt.graphics.Image;
import org.eclipse.jface.action.*;
import org.eclipse.jface.dialogs.MessageDialog;
import org.eclipse.ui.*;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Menu;
import org.eclipse.swt.SWT;
//import org.eclipse.swt.SWTError;
//import org.eclipse.swt.custom.*;
//import org.eclipse.swt.layout.*;
//import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.*;
import java.io.*;
//import java.net.*;
//import java.util.Arrays;
//import java.net.URL;


/**
 * This sample class demonstrates how to plug-in a new
 * workbench view. The view shows data obtained from the
 * model. The sample creates a dummy model on the fly,
 * but a real implementation would connect to the model
 * available either in this or another plug-in (e.g. the workspace).
 * The view is connected to the model using a content provider.
 * <p>
 * The view uses a label provider to define how model
 * objects should be presented in the view. Each
 * view can present the same model objects using
 * different labels and icons, if needed. Alternatively,
 * a single label provider can be shared between views
 * in order to ensure that objects of the same type are
 * presented in the same way everywhere.

How do i use this code to open a browser view when one of the items i double clicked ?

Right now it just makes a textbox with the name of the double clicked item.

The browser class should work. i just don't know how to display the browser view when a item from the list is double clicked.

Check my Eclipse development notes at http://lubospeclipse.wordpress.com/eclipse-plugin-and-rcp-development-notes-2-2/ you will see some examples of using web browser.
