activating a remote executable
Can anyone help
How do I activate a exicutable program on a remote network via a html page,
is it just a case of typing the name and accessing it like you do another
web page or a cgi script, eg
<A HREF="http://anetwork.somewhere.com/directory1/directory2/executable">
The program needs to be activated on the remote network via html page, to
run on the remote network and generate scripts for a html page in a similar
way to cgi
can someone help?
Thanks in advance

Re: activating a remote executable
You can't run a program on someone else's system without their cooperation
(fortunately!). There are probably several ways to do that, but the easiest
(for you) may be to have them set that program up to run as a CGI program,
then you can use that HTML code to execute it. Note that the program needs
to return an HTTP response, or you will get an error in your browser.

Re: activating a remote executable
Moppy,
You might also try servlets.
