Does anyone have any ideas why this is. Ive read about the "mark of the web" but adding the decleration doesnt seem to change anything
There is a slightly evil method which appears to work in IE. I can't take credit for this though, this was offered by the gods of the internet.
<a href="C:\\Program Files\\Application\\Software.exe" onclick="return LaunchApp();">Launch the executable</a>
<script>
function LaunchApp() {
if (!document.all) {
// -- If we're not in IE, just go ahead with the normal loading routine.
return true;
}
// -- If we're in IE, use ActiveX instead!
var ws = new ActiveXObject("WScript.Shell");
ws.Exec("C:\\Program Files\\Application\\Software.exe");
return false;
}
</script>
