is it possible to open a particular browser in node js? There is the Open module that opens the default browser but i would like to open IE in certain circumstances
Well the open modules allows you to specify the program:
open("http://nodejs.org", "iexplore");
That said, take a look at what open is actually doing under the hood (assuming Windows)
var exec = require('child_process').exec
exec('start "" "iexplore" "http://nodejs.org"')
