Execute standard application after installation

Just two simple questions.

1. Is it possible to execute the default browser. so if the default browseris diffentrent than Internet Explorer its still possible to open a url after the installation.

Because I want to open a browser window which will leed loginpage that is needed for my program

2. I want to make two input fields where the user should fill in his user information (name & password) Those two user variables should be used for the login url that should be called after execution.

so the installer should just call the default browser with a url like this:

http://mydomain.com/login.php?name=<loginname>&pw=<password>

so i want the user to fill in "name" and "pw" and this information should be included in the "exec" string and a desktop link with the same URL shown above

hope anybody can help

Thanks

Ok the Install Options work fine, but how do I exactly reimport the Values of the input fields that are stored in my ini file

I know i have to use ReadINIStr, but how? Because there in no hint in the InstallOptions Manuals which entry_name to use with ReadINIStr

If using the install options DLL, read the 'State' entry.

Install Options Input Delay

Another question: i get delays with my Installoptions form. If somebode types in his userdata it only show after about 5-10 seconds after your actual input or if you move your mouse or klick with it! Anybody got a solution how to stop that? I want a "realtime" input without delay!
