RDP Shortcut using Java

[hydruid]

What I've been looking for and not having any luck is finding java code that when browsed to automatically redirects the user to run mstsc.exe locally or with a shortcuut.

A big part of my problem is that I'm not familiar with java, maybe I am looking for the wrong terms.

I do not however want to go to a website and click a button, I want you to be automatically redirected to the rdp link when browsing to the page.

This is the JavaScript forum. JavaScript != Java, so perhaps you forum197 or forum269 ?

There is no Java in JavaScript, like no Dog in Hotdog

Ok I apologize for not being clear. I would like javascript to do this for me, not java lol

How ironic, given your signature

Does this have to work cross-browser, or is IE-only OK? I ask as you can probably run executables using some ActiveX control, but cross-browser or cross-OS, I'm not so sure...

Maybe I should read my signature more often, lol might help me ask better questions.

In the end I want it to be cross browser but for now IE and windows would be good.

found this code: tried it but it doesn't work:

<a href="javascript:LaunchApp(1)">

<img border="0" id="img1" src="../images/button1F10.jpg" height="24" width="120" alt="SERVER1" fp-style="fp-btn: Soft Rectangle 5" fp-title="SERVER1" onmouseover="FP_swapImg(1,0,/*id*/'img1',/*url*/'../images/button337.jpg')" onmouseout="FP_swapImg(0,0,/*id*/'img1',/*url*/'../images/button1F10.jpg')" onmousedown="FP_swapImg(1,0,/*id*/'img1',/*url*/'../images/button338.jpg')"

onmouseup="FP_swapImg(0,0,/*id*/'img1',/*url*/'../images/button337.jpg')"></a>



</a></td>

<a href="javascript:LaunchApp(2)">

<img border="0" id="img6" src="../images/button8D1.jpg" height="24" width="120" alt="SERVER2" onmouseover="FP_swapImg(1,0,/*id*/'img6',/*url*/'../images/button8E1.jpg')" onmouseout="FP_swapImg(0,0,/*id*/'img6',/*url*/'../images/button8D1.jpg')" onmousedown="FP_swapImg(1,0,/*id*/'img6',/*url*/'../images/button8F.jpg')"

onmouseup="FP_swapImg(0,0,/*id*/'img6',/*url*/'../images/button8E1.jpg')" fp-style="fp-btn: Soft Rectangle 5" fp-title="SERVER2"></a></td>





<script type="text/javascript">

function LaunchApp(server) {

if (!document.all) {

alert ("Available only with Internet Explorer.");

return;

}

var ws = new ActiveXObject("WScript.Shell");

ws.Exec("C:\\Windows\\System32\\mstsc.exe /v:SERVER"+server);

}

</script>

Looks like a bit of old FrontPage code. I've never used it, but I suspect there will be some framework code somewhere that you're missing.
