Neither will do what you want them to. CFAS runs on the server and has no interaction with the client other than spitting out HTML in response to a request. You will need to delve into the world of Signed ActiveX controls or Java applets to accomplish this task. On a different note, you can use WSH (Windows Scripting Host) to accomplish this if you use IE only. There are security settings (and Risks...) that will need to be assessed, but I beleive that it can be done.
