What I mean by the above is, if I have a
Java developed website, then if I press a link on a
jsp page etc, then is it possible that this link could open an application on the Client machine who is accessing the website through their browser.
For example when I click on the link, Excel, or
Word opens on the client machine (if it is installed).
I'm not sure if this is possible, but maybe it is as after all cookies etc can be created on a client machine from a website.
If this is possible then how is this possible, any info and examples would be great etc?
