Mac / Netbeans - how to set up HTML browser ? (tried Tools-Options already)

[Mr. Kite]

I'm trying to set up Safari (or IE, or anything) with NetBeans so I can
look at my JavaDoc page. I tried browsing to Safari.App
inTools->Options->IDE->Server->Web Browser, but when I "Generate
JavaDoc", NetBeans still can't find it and asks me to set it up (in
Tools->Options->IDE->Server->Web Browser).
Is there another option I'm missing?

(MacOS X 10.2.8, NetBeans 3.5.1)

Use "Command Line" Web Browser and set the executable to:

open -a /Applications/Safari.app {URL}

Note that you also need to change the default web browser to Command
Line in the Setup Wizard.

Configuring NetBeans 5.0

Hi,

I'm unable to set the default browser in NetBeans. I have the following under the options menu.
External Browser (command-line)

Running MAC OS 10.4.7
NetBeans IDE 5.0 + Application Server 8.2 Bundle Installer

Process: open -a /Applications/FireFox.app
Arguments: {URL}

I saw a similar post for an earlier version, but the suggestion failed.
