Hi

I'm not a javascript expert but I found the following script when trying to solve my own js problem. You might find elements of it useful:

My problem is this:
I want some javascript that will open an Office document in the appropriate MS Office program from a browser hyperlink, instead of opening the Office program inside the browser window.

The code at whirlywiryweb gives me an 'Error on page'. If you can help, please get in touch.

Thanks,

Beauchamp
