JavaScript Process Spawn

[shimhyunju]

Hi all,

I am developing a tool with HTML and JavaScript.
What I want to do with it is when a button is clicked a new process(Java class) is spawned and run.

I know in Java I can spawn a new process by
Runtime.getRuntime().exec(" ");

I was looking for a way to spawn an external process from JavaScript but was not able to find any example.

Can somebody help me?

I'd doubt that JavaScript itself has any replacement for
Runtime.getRuntime().exec(" ")

Your best bet should be write a signed applet and use the same command in applet.What you can do is call a function in java class through applet with javascript

Hope this helps

Cheers
