Hello all,
Is there a way to start a program on a client computer thru a web page. I am designing a web page for a gaming club and I want to put an icon on the page that when clicked will start the game on the client computer.
that depends on the application itself actually.. if the icon sends a file extension which the program has mapped, the OS can load it. There's also having the application install a protocol like how aim and a few other applications do.
At any rate, there is little to do with php in this thread. Moved to Misc.
Hmmm I actually have no idea about this, but I have seen on sites like
IRC://connect.serv.com or something like that.. can't quite sure but it would open IRC.. have been the same for a few different programs, like icq, and yahoo (I believe)
