Clearly the browser is in the path, because it opens. It just fails to open
the file supplied by the script.

I just tested this in both Windows (Vista) and Linux (Kubuntu 7.10 and
Slackware 12) without any problems. Try it from the interpreter; if it's
actually executing successfully, you should see something that looks like
this:
>>> import webbrowser
>>> webbrowser.open("file:///home/user/path/to/file/test.html")
True
>>>
