I have a webpage, when a user clicks on the link: - <a href="file:///D:\Test.avi">Test</a>
The video opens with VLC which is set as the default player, the problem is that when a user clicks on the link it pops up a box saying open with vlc or save and the save option is selected by default and the remember my choice is grayed out, can anyone tell me a different way to get an avi play when clicked on in a webpage?

You must tell the browser which application is associated with that file type. In Firefox, it's under Edit->Preferences and find the tab for applications.

Configuring a new instance of IIS, I noticed that it
allows an HTML-formatted document trailer to be appended
to every document served. Unfortunately, on checking
its behaviour, I find that it appends the trailer
/after/ the closing </HTML> of the document, separated
by a blank line. I therefore have a few questions :
1) Assuming HTML 4.01 Transitional, can anything
legitimately follow the closing </HTML> tag ?

I have a website ( http://www.zen62775.zen.co.uk ) that I made HTML 4.01
Transitional and CSS compliant, and I'm thinking of converting it into XHTML
to learn a little about it. Which XHTML variant would you recommend? The w3c
HTML validator mentions XHTML 1.0 Transitional, Basic, Strict, and XHTML
1.1. Would I be able to make my existing CSS work in the XHTML page without
modification to the .css file?

can i create a link that doesnt open a browser window... a link that
executes the aspx.vb code first (code that creates a file) and
transfers to an opening of a dynamically created (vcs outlook) file...
so what the user gets returned from a click of a link is the opening
of the file dialog message.
make any sense?
Any help?

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
