SSH syntax help

[jgosney]

I'm using SSH to remote into a server to do some scripting from my laptop. Part of the script that I'm writing on the remote server is to launch the firefox browser. When I run the script from my ssh session and it gets to the line to launch the browser, I get repeatedly "gtk warning , cannot open display". I figure this has something to do with graphics redirection. I've man'd ssh and tried several option (-t, -n, -x, -X) and can't seem to get the right switch to allow me to launch graphical apps on the remote server. Anyone know the correct method to do this?
