I'm looking to write the front end of an installation program using html, is this possible? Like I would have 1 button/link that when clicked it would launch the setup.exe.

You can run an exe file just by hyperlinking to it
<a href="/Program%20Files/IrfanView1/i_view32.exe">hello</a>
There's probably a type attribute that should be in there, but I can't remember it if there is.
however, it will display an open/download box, so you'll need to say 'click open' on the link.
Unless someone else has any better ideas?
If it's to run off a cd then you can search these forums for autorun and you should find everything you need.
