title: How to explicitly specify a path to Firefox for Selenium?
body: <p>I got Selenium IDE, followed <a href="http://jimmyg.org/blog/2009/getting-started-with-selenium-and-python.html" rel="noreferrer">this post</a>, got to</p>
  
  <pre><code>python test_default_server.py
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and it complains Firefox is not in my path:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Please add the directory containing ''firefox.exe'' to your PATH environment
  variable, or explicitly specify a path to Firefox 3 like this:
  *firefox3c:\blah\firefox.exe
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I could change my PATH environment variable, but I'd rather pursue the local config option they are mentioning ("explicitly specify a path"). How do I do that? What does the "*firefox3c" refer to?</p>
