Launching an app from a browser - 4/27/2003 1:36:44
Yep....I' m still chasing. I' m trying to launch an app, like Outlook from a browser, as you' d do on an intranet.
I found this page - http://www.virtualplastic.net/html/art_htm.html
Included, is some scripting for Javascript:
/* Open */
function Open(appName) {
var WshShell = new ActiveXObject(" WScript.Shell" );
WshShell.Run(appName);
}
/* Open with window style */
function OpenWws(appName,windowStyle) {
if (!windowStyle) windowStyle=1;
var WshShell = new ActiveXObject(" WScript.Shell" );
WshShell.Run(appName,windowStyle);
}
and for VB Script
' Open
Sub Open(appName)
set WshShell = CreateObject(" WScript.Shell" )
WshShell.Run(appName)
End Sub
' Open with window style
' Call like this: onclick=" Open ' notepad' ,1"
Sub Open ( appName, windowStyle )
if windowStyle=" " then windowStyle=1
set WshShell = CreateObject(" WScript.Shell" )
WshShell.Run appName,windowStyle
End Sub
My problem (one of them anyway), is not having a clue how to run these from within a page.
Any suggestions would be appreciated,
Cheers
