Hello again! This time I’ve got a question about links. I scrapped my old project and I’ve almost got a project done based on the QRCodeReader library. My sketch reads the QR Codes just fine. I was wondering though if there is a way to tell the sketch to input the resulting url into the user’s browser. Essentially I want to be able to scan one QR Code, click the text, and then go it in my browser, but I want to do that for multiple QR Codes. Is this possible? If need be I can show my current code. Thank you!
