Hello. This works great in Windows, but less so in HTML5. Is it not HTML5 compatible, perhaps?

I copy and pasted your example for opening a webpage directly for testing. No matter what I do, I get this error:

Uncaught ReferenceError: execute_shell_simple_raw is not defined

I downloaded your GMS2.3+ version yesterday, so it's definitely not outdated.

You’ll want either url_open[_ext] or clickable_* on HTML5 - an extension can’t do much more than the runtime already does.

Thanks for the response. I got it working with what you suggested.
