Open an application from a webpage

[ChainsawJoe]

Hi. I've been have a nightmare trying to get a dll to register on a user's pc (which, by the way, if anyone can help me with I'd be most amazingly grateful!) which opens applications on the client side, so I'm now looking for another option.

I want a button on an intranet page to launch an application on the user's pc. I've been trying to use the superb activex thingy from

http://www.whirlywiryweb.com/

called LaunchInIE.dll. Very handy.

Anyway - I've been going mad trying to get the launchinie.dll to register on the client's pc, so I'm asking if anyone knows of a different method by which to launch an application on a client's machine?

Any help is greatly appreciated!

</object>

if the classid where right notepad would load as soon as the page does...
