quote:
function OnEvent_ChatWndSendMessage(ChatWnd, sMessage)
{
if (sMessage == "/WMP")
{
(Whatever command needed to run the program here, default directory for application is C:\Program Files\Windows Media Player\wmplayer.exe as far as i know)

It's not javascript. It's the similar language, Jscript. quote:

Where do any of these come in?
I think you should read the scripting documentations if you have not already done so, to understand how scripts are written. ![[Image: msghelp.net.png]](http://dotlou.com/stuff/sigs/msghelp.net.png)
The future holds bright things in it\\\'s path, but only time will tell what they are and where they come from.

O.P. RE: How wo Run a Program through Javascript
With php and Html i was just saying i have no knowledge of scripting or programming anywhere, therefore its very hard, if a type of programming/scripting etc is already known its much easier to understand and catch onto new ones!
i have read the scripting documentations i just cant see anything telling me how to run an app through Jscript

RE: How wo Run a Program through Javascript
code:
function fnShellExecuteJ()
{
var objShell = new ActiveXObject("Shell.Application");
objShell.ShellExecute("C:\Program Files\Windows Media Player\wmplayer.exe", "", "", "open", 1);
}
^^ Found that here but I don't know if its what you are looking for, or if it would even work lol. I don't have the first clue about coding unless its php or html  (which are useless here  ).
Just trying to help out  . Good luck!  |
