auto load .html file when cd inserted

auto load .html file when cd inserted

Im making a CD for my work which uses a html page as the navigation interface

how do i get it so the html file automatically loads when the cd is inserted....like when you insert an installation disc and the installation programme automatically loads??

cheers

press f12

why?

dunno just see what happens

did it work?

there's a little program you can download that'll you can specify a .exe to run (ie for example) and pass it parameters (like the name of the html file)

i had to do 1 a few years ago. hang on, i'll google for the proggy

this might work too : http://www.phdcc.com/shellrun/autorun.htm

it's fairly easy

Do you not need a autorun.ini file or something similar?

create a new text file and save it in the CD root directory as "autorun.inf"

within it have simply...

[autorun]
open=whateverpage.html


try that, see what happens.

Feck.. its .inf

Nearly there..
