Good Evening folks
This is my first attempt at posting something having signed on a couple of weeks ago but here goes.
My friend has promised someone that I could copy some of the pages from my web site www.allaboutmarmaris.com on to a CD and also put on a file that would start the CD as one finds on some CD without the need to go to Start/Run etc.
Can anyone help me on this one - where can I find such a file or program????
Thanks in advance

You can create them with Flash. Make a movie, with a 'Click to enter' button on it. Link the button relatively to your index. Then use the flash player. It offers an option to 'create projector' - namely an .exe file. Do that and it should work. Use a free disk off a pc mag or something to get the autorun code, and use software like www.irfanview.com to make an icon.
Hope this helps

PS if you haven't got Flash, try www.koolmoves.com - there's a free 30day demo - ample for you to make it!!
All you really need is an autorun.inf
Basicly open an autorun.inf file from a autorunning CD you own and Look at the file... If I can recall correctly the only line you will need is just.
run=index.html
that is if your home page is index.
I've only ever got it to work with a .exe file. Maybe it's cos I had the icon code in there.
I agree with pete,the only code you might need is as follows open notepad with a blank document. copy the code below in that file and save it as autorun.inf file,
[autorun] open=index.html
Presuming that index.html is the start up page for your app.
ya it should be the open and not run.. run is for the exe's
Thanks very much, guys - whoops didn't check as there might have been a reply from a lady - if so pls add "gals"
I have been looking at a few of the auto run files this afternoon and I think you have it right and I will check it out tomorrow and get back to you if it works.
Thanks again.
