    It could be possible, yes. But you’d have to make specific provision for it on the server and be very sure that it is secure and only runs when you want it to.

    Example (from here):

    <html>
<head>
    <script type="text/javascript">
        function runApp(which) {
        WshShell = new ActiveXObject("WScript.Shell");
        WshShell.Run (which,1,true);
        }
     </script>
</head>
<body>
   <font onClick="runApp('file://c:/windows/notepad.exe');" style="cursor:        
     hand;"><u>Notepad</u>
   </font>
 <br>

 <a href="runApp('file://c:/test.bat');">Batch File</a>
 </body>
 </html>
