open html file in frontpage from website.

Hi All,

Can any help me how to open any html file(stored file in site) in front
page 2003.
Like i would be having some link in the site click here to open it in front
page 2003.

so basically there could be some javascript code written on the link to
open it in the frontpage editior.

I am not talking about the IE feature as it has tool bar which opens the
entire page in front page, it would be a link in the web site and on clicking
the link it would open the html file in only frontpage it is installed in the
local machine.

Pls help it's urgent..

Waithing for reply,

Ajay,
Unfortunately there isn't anything you can do. It's a security no-no
for JavaScript to launch programs outside the browser. It's up to the
browser to determine how to display the page and since the browser is set to
display HTML text documents it won't get passed to another helper app. In a
nutshell this is something that can't be done, and chances are if you could
find a trick on how to do it the user's browser security setting would
probably negate it anyways. You could always consider using a browser based
HTML editor to edit the page instead, there are some excellent ones on the
market and some are even free such as:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/fckeditor/

Hope this helps,
