Hi ! If, by chance, you pass in Ardeche (*), France, I could show you interesting things. If not, I would have evil, by e-mail (my English is too bad).
(*) See : http://www.marathon-ardeche.com/SiteMarathon/gorges_ardeche/gorges_htm/20001113_gorges_2.htm Michel Claveau __________________________________________________ Thanks for the suggestions. I am debating which of the feasible methods will be easier. The javascript code calling a COM object was quite easy to get working: var obj = ActiveXObject(aa.bb); However it doesn't work with mozilla (which I expected). When loaded as HTML it gives a warning every time. Even when you run it as HTA, it generates a warning on the first run, but not after. The HTA option looks neat for a windows application (thanks Michel). For deployment I guess you would go something like this: pack an HTA file with your python com server exe. Write a bat file that to runs the application you are writing so that it can register with the local registry. Then open explorer passing it the HTA file. The option of running a web server locally whenever this application is fired can be used in lieu of running a com server and using HTA. The reason why the web server option looks attractive is becuasebecause it has object publishing that comes for free, with something like Cherry Pie. Without this, I would have to write some messy html scripting code that will intercept actions on the HTML/HTA file and then return with other HTML/HTA pages etc. I guess the happy middle would be to find a object publishing framework that generates HTML but runs inside a python COM server. Is there any? If not I guess one can try change cherry py a little bit so it can act as a com server instead of a webserver. _______________________________________________ Python-win32 mailing list Python-win32@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-win32
