Open 3 tabs in IE window with .cmd file

[erezyafee]

I tried to accomplished that, but it works only in chrome (my default browser) and i want it to work in IE.
My goal is to open 3 tabs in IE. doesnt matter if they will open in a new IE window or existing IE window.
This is my .cmd file:

START /d iexplore.exe "C:\Program Files (x86)\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe" "http://marathon:7040/console/jsp/login/j_security_check?j_username=weblogic&j_password=weblogic"
START /d iexplore.exe "C:\Program Files (x86)\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe" "http://sparta:7040/console/jsp/login/j_security_check?j_username=weblogic&j_password=weblogic"
START /d iexplore.exe "C:\Program Files (x86)\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe" "http://wlsprod:7040/console/jsp/login/j_security_check?j_username=weblogic&j_password=weblogic"

Hi and welcome to SevenForums!

Add a /D after START, ex: START /D ""

And add a short pause between each START command so the previous opened IE window has opened fully. Example:
CHOICE /C:AB /D A /T 1 > NUL

This will pause for 1 second without displaying anything. If that's not enough try and increase that value.

I now noticed that i didnt copy the right code so i edited my question. take a look on the code
that code does excactly what i want, but because my default browser is chrome- it opens in crome.
all i want is to open it through IE without change my default browser

I changed my default browser so now I get the same problem as you have. I can't get this to work when IE is not my default browser, but I found another solution using VB script:

Const navOpenInBackgroundTab = &H1000

site1 = "google.com"
site2 = "bing.com"
site3 = "ddg.gg"

Set oIE = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application")
oIE.Visible = True
oIE.Navigate2 site1
oIE.Navigate2 site2,navOpenInBackgroundTab
oIE.Navigate2 site3,navOpenInBackgroundTab

Set oIE = Nothing

Save the above to a text file and name it .vbs instead of .txt. Change the values for variable site1, site2, site3.
If you want to call it from a .cmd file, use this example:

cscript /nologo "c:\path\filename.vbs"

I tried a test. My default browser is Seamonkey (Mozilla spinoff).

I entered a single line:

START iexplore.exe "http://www.google.com"&START iexplore.exe "http://www.google.com"&START iexplore.exe "http://www.google.com"

This opened 3 Internet Explorer windows for Google.

Thanks alot Tookeri!!! works very well!
Ztruker- we talked about opening one window with 3 tabs. not 3 windows

Sorry, this line in your original post threw me:

doesnt matter if they will open in a new IE window or existing IE window.

I understand now.
