Ajax Programming :: executing an external application


	executing an external application How can I write an application in ajax to run an external application. I am trying to create a hyperlink (on a webpage) that will open an application using command line options: eg. <a> c:\application\word.exe" -q -a </a> I've tried above and it gave me 'Access is denied' . Ajax is JavaScript and it can not run applications. It is a hackers dream. Look into activeX controls for IE.
