onOptionsItemSelected go to a website

The_Arcaniac

Hello, and thank you for you patience with me. I am knew to Android, however I have been programming LAMP and Visual Basic and C# for many years. I am using Android Studio 3.5 and using Kotlin as the language. I have a very simple question for many of you, however, it is vexing me. I would greatly appreciate your help. I have created a menu in my android app. The problem I am having is, how do I select a Menu Item and go to a web page? Here is the code I have. From MainActivity.kt-----------------------------------------

override fun onOptionsItemSelected(item: MenuItem): Boolean {

    return when (item.itemId) {
        R.id.action\_locate -> true
        else -> super.onOptionsItemSelected(item)
    }
    return when (item.itemId) {
        R.id.action\_scanner -> true
        else -> super.onOptionsItemSelected(item)
    }
    return when (item.itemId) {
        R.id.action\_qrcodescanner -> true
        else -> super.onOptionsItemSelected(item)
    }
    return when (item.itemId) {
        R.id.action\_mainsite -> true
        else -> super.onOptionsItemSelected(item)
    }

------------------------------------------------------------ MenuMain.xml-------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------- Please tell me if you need any other code. I just want to know how to make a menu item go to a webpage. Thank you.

In response to that menu item, could you do something like:

startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse( "https://www.google.com")));
