Put it this way, if you had such a button, what’s to stop me passing rm /s/q C: and watching your entire hard drive disappear?

Instead, have a form with a <select> element that lists the programs you want to run as keys, such as myfile, then submit that to the server. Then have the server verify that the key is allowed, and if so run the corresponding program.
