How to execute parameterized command using java script?

[rahuljaiswal1987]

Videoagent.exe -s 100.100.10.1 -c 3 -d 08252002 -b 14:12:35 -e 14:15:12 -u USERID -p PASSWORD


This is a command to execute video agent with these parameter. I want to execute this command through javascript. Tell me some solution if you have.

I have none and I will never have. JavaScript cannot get out of its browser sandbox.

[rahuljaiswal1987]

I have got the soln.

var oShell = new ActiveXObject("Shell.Application");
var commandtoRun = "C:\\Program Files\\Sensormatic\\NetworkClient\\Bin\\VideoAgent.exe";
var commandParms = "-s 0.0.0.0 -t 5000 -c 5 -d 04042010 -b 14:12:35 -e 14:15:12";
oShell.ShellExecute(commandtoRun, commandParms, "", "open", "1");

rEGARDS,

that will only work in IE.

[rahuljaiswal1987]

I know but is thr any way so that it can work for other browsers too.

[Dormilich]

nope. that would be too high a security risk.

[rahuljaiswal1987]

Is there any alternative to ShellExecute() method?

[Dormilich]

as I already said, JavaScript (unlike JScript) does not have any access to the local file system.

[rahuljaiswal1987]

I don't know at this time that whetjer its possible or not, but i totally disagree with your 2nd statement that "JavaScript does not have any access to the local file system."

that’s not JavaScript and, if you didn’t notice, it’s Windows only.

If u want to execute this in mozilla then try this. In address bar, type:
about:config

It list lot of configs, from those select
signed.applets.codebase_principal_support
change its value as true

Then execute the script. I am not sure but try this.

[rahuljaiswal1987]

Still its not workin but thanks for your reply Pandian.

that is JavaScript via CLI (command line interface). it does not enable you to run applications from a website (as stated on the page).
