No, but you should be able to write a macro to do this.

Thanks!

You can not do more then one selection at once.
But you can use a script/macro to extract and collect all URLs
and then use something like (For Each URL in URLs Do “open browser”)

I have searched for an good regex to match url.
An basic for an script could be:

//Text to parse for URL:

	selText = document.selection.text;

	//

	//

	//Show matched URLs:

	vURLs = findUrls(selText);

	alert(vURLs);

	//

	//

	//Open matched URLs:

	vURLs = findUrls(selText);

	openUrls();

	function findUrls(searchText){

		// gruber revised expression - http://rodneyrehm.de/t/url-regex.html

	    var regex= /b((?:[a-z][w-]+:(?:/{1,3}|[a-z0-9\%])|wwwd{0,3}[.]|[a-z0-9.-]+[.][a-z]{2,4}/)(?:[^s()<>]+|(([^s()<>]+|(([^s()<>]+)))*))+(?:(([^s()<>]+|(([^s()<>]+)))*)|[^s`!()[]{};:'".,<>?«»“”‘’]))/ig;

	    result= searchText.match(regex);

		if(result){return result.join("rn");}else{return false;}

	}

	function openUrls(vURLS){

		var ie = new ActiveXObject("InternetExplorer.Application");

		ie.Visible = true;

		arr = vURLs.split("rn");

		for(i=0,E=arr.length; i<E; i++){

			vURL = arr[i]; 

			ie.Navigate(vURL);

			pause(1000);

	

			if(i==3) quit(); // for debugging only

		}

	}

	function pause(ms) {

		ms += new Date().getTime();

		while (new Date() < ms){}

	} 

This will open every url in IE but in same tab. Use History back.

You may want to find a solution to open each url in a new tab.

You can utilize other browsers maybe by using a code like:
var wsh = new ActiveXObject(“WScript.Shell”);
wsh.run(“notepad.exe”, 1, True);
