Google Chrome is set as the default browser. However, it opens links in Firefox, which is undesired.
How can I make Org-mode to open links in Google Chrome?

Links in Org are plain text, and you can type or paste them straight into the buffer. By using this command, the links are automatically enclosed in double brackets, and you will be asked for the optional descriptive text.

Emacs 23.2 doesn't directly support Google Chrome, but it does support a "generic" browser, and something like this should work:
(setq browse-url-browser-function 'browse-url-generic browse-url-generic-program "chromium-browser") You don't mention your OS, but if it's Windows or Mac, you can try:
(setq browse-url-browser-function 'browse-url-default-windows-browser) (setq browse-url-browser-function 'browse-url-default-macosx-browser) And, if that doesn't work, there are other folks who have implemented 'browse-url-chrome. Google turned up the following link:

As Trey suggests, you can set it to a generic browser, but instead of "chromium-browser" use "google-chrome", like this:
