I am new to Eclipse and I have created a small web app and it works but when I do Run on Server (Tomcat) from Eclipse it launches the website in its own internal web browser.
I wondered if it was possible to have it launch Firefox for example?
Do I need to download Aptana?

The Internal Web Browser view allows you to surf the internet from within the Eclipse Workbench Window. To activate the Internal Web Browser view click on the Window and select Show View → Other. In the filter text box of the Show View dialog box enter browser . From the tree select Internal Web Browser and click OK.
Go to your eclipse Window -> Preferences -> General -> Web Browser and you can select your default Web Browser here and if you want to add some other web browser then click on New button and put and and then click on OK and then after your can see your newly added browser in "External web browser" section.
The Run on Server menu item appears on all objects that are accepted by at least one moduleArtifactAdapters expression. Once the Run on Server menu item is selected, the selected object is adapted to IModuleArtifact.
I would just enter the URL in your preferred browser, and bookmark it. As simple as that. You'll have to do it with different browsers anyway if you want to test the app on multiple browsers.
You can also choose which browser is used by going to Window - Preferences - General - Web Browser.
