I need to pass a parameter to an executable either via URL or link or script or whatever but nothing is working.
The .exe is: \\CL001\Mart\OP 2\Test1.exe
The parameter is: '\\CL001\mart\o p2\Test' A direct type of this in the URL works:
\\CL001\Mart\OP 2\Test1.exe /p '\\CL001\mart\o p2\Test' However, if I type this (\\CL001\Mart\O P2\Test1.exe /p '\\CL001\mart\o p2\Test') into a link for a URL, then the "file:\\" prefix is placed before and file not found error occurs. This opens the app but the parameter is not passed properly:
<A HREF="\\CL001\M art\OP2\Test1.e xe?'p=\\CL001\m art\op2\Test''" ></A> I've tried various javascripts and manipulations with no success. Anyone have an idea?
Thanks,
cj

Have you tried setting location.href?
Thanks the response. I have tried location.href but get the error "Object Expected": - <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="javascript">
-
-
function PROCTest() {
-
document.location.href = document.location.href = "\\\\CL001\\Mart\\OP2\\Test1.exe%20'"'\\\\CL001\mart\op2\Test'"'";

May be if the application has a command line interface, you can pass arguments using a wshshell object or a batch file. You will be able to return the output of the command if you need.
You can do this in javascript or PHP. Just search for Wshshell for javascript.
I am fairly new to this so please give it a try and if it works please let me know.
Good Luck!
The code below almost works. The app starts up but then will not accept the parameter properly. I get the message that path "\\CL001\\Mart\ \op2\\Test" does not exist.
Like I had mentioned before, in the command line I have to use a /p to properly pass the parameter: \\CL001\Mart\OP 2\Test1.exe /p '\\CL001\mart\o p2\Test' - <HTML>

<SCRIPT

language = "javascript">
-
function PROCRun() {
-
var shell = new ActiveXObject("WScript.Shell");
-
shell.run( '"\\\\CL001\\Mart\\OP2\\Test1.exe" "\\\\CL001\\Mart\\op2\\Test"' , 1, true );

window.close();

That should be window.location .href or simply location.href, not document.locati on.href.

Perhaps you could try passing the string as it works to shell.run.

Hi folks,
I would be interested to hear peoples views on whether or not 'pass by

The thing that troubles me about pass-by-reference into a WebService is that
essentially we are passing an address of an object which resides on the
'local machine' i.e. a local machine object address. Surely when the
WebService method is called and run 'on the server', the reference type will
