Hi,
I have two HTAs. One that is run automatically and the other that should be opened by clicking a link in the first HTA.
When I put it a regular link (<a href...) it notifies on a security issue. To workaround this issue I did the following:
1. Created a Wshell script that will run the hta.
Sub OpenHTA(link)
set wshell=createobject("Wscript.shell")
wshell.run("mshta.exe " & link)
End Sub
2. In the link i created an Onclick event handler that calls the subroutine I created above.
Unforyunately, it creates an mshta.exe process but the hta itself does not display.
Any idea how to resolve this
By the way, I did the same thing to run a .chm file and it works fine.
running an hta from another hta
Deza
(JScript)
new ActiveXObject("WScript.Shell").Run("mshta U:\\hw.hta");
new ActiveXObject("WScript.Shell").Run("U:\\hw.hta");
new ActiveXObject("WScript.Shell").Exec("mshta U:\\hw.hta");
new ActiveXObject("WScript.Shell").Exec("%comspec% /C \"U:\\hw.hta\"");
new ActiveXObject("WScript.Shell").Exec("%comspec% /C mshta \"U:\\hw.hta\"");
new ActiveXObject("WScript.Shell").Run("%comspec% /C mshta \"U:\\hw.hta\"");
new ActiveXObject("WScript.Shell").Run("%comspec% /C \"U:\\hw.hta\"");
Of course, in VBScript
they would each be CreateObject("WScript.Shell").Run("mshta.... etc")
