I'm having trouble with a using os.system on a windowsXP machine.
Running: os.system('start C:\Documents and Settings\Smith_B2\Desktop\page.html')
Yields and error saying 'Windows cannot find C:\Documents.....'
This same problem means I can't access things in the 'Program Files' directory and so forth. Any ideas of work-arounds (other than moving to non-space included directories)?
