    Links to Programs?

    Can I make a link in an HTML page point to a program and make the program run? I want to run it from my own computer, so is there some sort of tweaking I can do to stop the "open or save" thing from happening?

    Code:
    <a href="file//c:/Program Files/program/program.exe">Click here to open program!</a>
    I think that's how it works.

    ...

    its
    Code:
    file:///c:/
    and if someone clicked that then itll look for it on their comp... not yours...

    i *think* you have to setup ur comp like a server to let ppl in ur comp by ur IP addy... then u have to link it threw ur IP addy...

    Whooops...I didn't read his question properly.

    You wont be able to link it to your computer and have the program run itself. It'll just download the program.
