    how to launch an exe from browser ?

    Hi,


    I have written an Activex DLL and packed it as Cab file and marked it as safe for scripting. This will be launched from the webbrowser as follows :

    <HTML>
    <HEAD>
    <TITLE>Chatroom.CAB</TITLE>
    </HEAD>
    <BODY>
    <OBJECT ID="ChatTest"
    CLASSID="CLSID02F7572-AED3-4F80-A58A-213C3A60BC91"
    CODEBASE="Chatroom.CAB#version=1,0,0,0">
    </OBJECT>

    <script language="javascript">
    <!--
    document.ChatTest.LaunchRoom();
    //-->
    </script>
    </BODY>
    </HTML>

    So, This cab file consists of dependencies of this activex as well as a EXE file name a.exe.
    the LaunchRoom function in Activex is supposed to launch that a.exe.
    But where this file will be saved, when activex is installed from browser ?
    what is the default path for it ?

    Thanks in advance.

    Thanks & Regards
    Chinna

    Hi pampatipraveen,

    Any ActiveX's that are downloaded via IE will automatically be downloaded to C:\WINDOWS\Downloaded Program Files.

    Cheers
