How do I run a TCL script via an HTML button

[Guest_imported]

I am trying to make an html button execute a tcl program thru my intranet on NT. If I double click the tcl file it runs good, but how do I define a button to do my execution?

Thank you,

I think this is really a hatemail question rather than Tcl. However you get a button to perform a shell-like action in HTML, the execution it invokes is really the Tcl or Tk shell (Tcl83, say). It depends whether your host machine is Windows or UNIX (or Mac I suppose but then I'm lost). If it's Windows, the execution syntax is something like &quot;tclsh83.exe <script name>&quot;. If it's UNIX, then the script includes &quot;#!<path><app>&quot; and must be globally executable (<path> is like /usr/local/bin and <app> is like tclsh8.3), then the execution is the script itself.
