You can try command-line browsers such as links, lynx, elinks.

You want start a web browser *from* your terminal? If so, the following will work if you have firefox installed.

Code:

firefox http://www.linuxquestions.org

Or, perhaps you want to run a web browser *in* your terminal. In that case, the above will work if you replace "firefox" with the name of a console based browser that you have installed. Possible console based browsers that are often shipped with linux distributions include: links, lynx, w3m, etc...

amritpalpathak;

So far, it appears that you have not posted any follow-up in any of your threads---not even a "thank you". If you do not respond to the help that is given---including answering questions---then why would you expect that we would continue to help you?

not forget about w3m

and links -g if you have framebuffer enabled you can surf graphical on a TTY

and w3m can show images too on fb.

Code:

python -c "import urllib2; print urllib2.urlopen('http://google.co.uk').read()"

the output

Code:

<!doctype html><html><head><meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1"><title>Google</title><script>window.google={kEI:"npyfS5mCFJOMNbWDmNMM",kEXPI:"23729,24029",kCSI:{e:"23729,24029",ei:"npyfS5mCFJOMNbWDmNMM",expi:"23729,24029"},ml:function(){},kHL:"en",time:function(){return(new Date).getTime()},log:function(b,d,c){var a=new Image,e=google,g=e.lc,f=e.li;a.onerror=(a.onload=(a.onabort=function(){delete g[f]}));g[f]=a;c=c||"/gen_204?atyp=i&ct="+b+"&cad="+d+"&zx="+google.time();a.src=c;e.li=f+1},lc:[],li:0,Toolbelt:{}};
