[jboss-user] [JBoss Portal] - launch a .exe in a portlet

[cpage]

hi,

i have to make a portlet which will be able to launch a heavy application.
this is an old client-server application.

for now, i use an javascript, and it's not working with firefox, just IE with security in the minimal level:

<script type="text/javascript">
  | <!--
  | function exec(e){
  | if (navigator.userAgent.indexOf('MSIE')> 0){
  | 	var w = new ActiveXObject("WScript.Shell");
  | 	w.run('\"'+e+'\" module=x210030'); //module=x210030 is a parameter
  | }else{
  | 	alert("Le lancement d'un exécutable n'est possible que sous Internet Explorer");
  | }
  | }
  | //-->
  | </script>
  | 
  | [..]
  | 
  | <h:commandLink onclick="exec('#{AppCpageV2Bean.cheminApplication}');" // this is the path of my exe.
  | styleClass="transv" >
  | 		<h:graphicImage style="border:none" value="/images/CPage.jpg"/><h:outputText value="	Cpage V2"/>
  | </h:commandLink>
  | 
  | 

this solution is very very very dirty ! (isn't it !)

but i don't know how to do it in an other way.


thanks for help,

regards
