I'm trying to open Notepad through my webpage, but I have script after the open command that needs to be completed, and when I run the script, it opens notepad, but then it says something about having to download the program. But when i press 'open' it opens it right up. Is there something i can add to my script so i don't have to click 'open'?
Please help,

You cannot force an application on the client to open. That violates the browser security model. You can configure certain helper applications, such as Acrobat Reader or Flash, to respond to certain MIME types.
It sounds like you are doing some ActiveX scripting. We really cannot help you with specifics until you show us what you've written.
