Any help much appreciated!

Code:
<html><head><title>Test</title>
<!--

<script type="text/javascript">
function process(data) {
launch(data)
timer=setTimeout('self.close()',1000)
}
</script>
<!--
***************************************************
**** launch

***************************************************
-->
<script type="text/vbscript">
sub launch(parm1)
Dim MyObj
Set MyObj=CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
MyObj.Run "NOTEPAD.EXE parm1"
end sub
</script>
</head>
<!--

<body style="background:beige">

<input type="button" value="Certify"
