I've got an old hta file which I use to do some simple conversions. A friend has just asked me to rewrite it in C# so he can run it on his Windows 8 phone. If hta files work on W8 phones, then I don't really need to do any conversions. I haven't found any answer on the net as to whether or not it works. As I don't even have a smart phone, I can't try it out. I could try it on his phone but he left it at his sisters so we won't really know until he gets his phone back.

This is asking a lot. Could someone just try this on their windows phone and tell me whether it works
Code:
<html>
<head><title>HTA test</title></head>
<body>It works</body>
</html>
Just call the file something like workies.hta and run it. Please let us know whether it works or not. There are loads of postings on the net but nobody has said whether or not it works.
 
Thanks. Guess I'll have to rewrite it in C# or VB.net.
