Run Batch file with Html

[M626]

Is it possible to fun a batch file or perl script with HTML. I am new to html so any links or example would be very useful. I want to take a directory of all perl scripts and have a web page where each script can be select by check boxes then run them with a command button.

HTML has no such ability.

You would need to use some sort of scripting language to do this - most likely JavaScript or VBScript (the latter restricting you to IE only). In fact, you would probably be restricted to IE only anyway, as you'd probably need to use a shell ActiveX "control" to do this.

I'd ask in the JavaScript or VBScript forums (whichever you are going to be most comfortable with) for further help.

Hope this helps,
Dan

Where do you want to run these scripts? On the webserver, or on the client PC?
