Thanks for the reply. That moves the ball ahead a little, although that seems different then what the documentation describes. Anyway, IE will not load and I get an error saying pretty much that. Interestingly, Firefox does indeed load but only brings up the home page not the temp file. Here is the code I have now: 
$ENV{'PERL_HTML_DISPLAY_COMMAND'}='run "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firef
+ox\firefox.exe" %s';
my $browser=HTML::Display->new();
if (defined($browser)) {
        my $mypage="<html><body><h1>Hello world!</h1></body></html>";
        $browser->display(html=>$mypage);
}
else {
        print("Unable to open browser: $@\n");
}
