How do i create hyperlinks for every button in a list? [Tkinter]-CodePudding

I have made a list of buttons yesterday, and i wanted to step it up a little by adding a hyperlink for each item in the list. However, pressing each button results in nothing at all (In fact, I believe a 'None' was resulted from this). All the YouTube links were made into an array, and for each item, i have tried to assign a hyperlink.

Here is the code for this:

from tkinter import *
import webbrowser

root = Tk()
root.title('Scrollbar text box')
root.geometry("600x500")




#my exercise list

FullExerciseList = [
    "Abdominal Crunches", 
    "Russian Twist",
    "Mountain Climber",
    "Heel Touch" ,
    "Leg Raises",
    "Plank",
    "Cobra Stretch",
    "Arm Raises",
    "Side Arm Raises",
    "Tricep Dips",
    "Arm Circles Clockwise",
    "Arm Circles Counter Clockwise",
    "Diamond Push Ups",
    "Jumping Jacks" ,
    "Chest Press Pulse",
    "Push Ups" ,
    "Wall Push Ups",
    "Triceps Stretch Left" ,
    "Tricep Stretch Right",
    "Cross Arm Stretch" ,
    "Rhomboid Pulls",
    "Knee Push Ups",
    "Arm Scissors",

    "Wall Calf Raises"
    ]

Any help is greatly appreciated =)

CodePudding user response：

I made the following modifications to your code:

Removed callback and used lambda to open the corresponding YouTube video.
Used zip to pair-wise extract the exercise name and the video link.

If you want to know why I wrote lambda x=link: webbrowser.open_new(x) and not lambda : webbrowser.open_new(link) refer to this question.

Working Code:

from tkinter import *
import webbrowser

root = Tk()
root.title('Scrollbar text box')
root.geometry("600x500")
