Try this:<script type="text/javascript">
//<![CDATA[
window.open('foo.doc', '', '');
//]]>
</script>

You're welcome. I don't believe what you're trying to do is possible with JavaScript. It may be possible with some kind of ActiveX object, however, I'm not sure which one you'd be looking for since I've never had to make something like this.

or, at least, is it possible to open a few .doc files in one web-page ? [if it's possible, so tell me the code please]

All you should need to do is make a simple link to the .doc file:<a href="foo.doc">bar</a>Note that this works for other special file types too (e.g., PDF), it depends on whether the browser has the plug-in installed or not.

<script type="text/javascript">
//<![CDATA[
function launchFiles(file1, file2)
{
var html = '<html><head><title>displaying ' + file1 + ' &amp;amp; ' + file2 + '</title></head><frameset cols="50%, *"><frame src="' + file1 + '" /><frame src="' + file2 + '" /></frameset></html>';
var w = window.open('', '', 'height=500,width=750');

with(w.window.document)
{
write(html);
close();
}
}
//]]>
</script><a href="#" onclick="launchFiles('foo.doc', 'bar.doc');">Launch two files.</a>
