MIME types & application
-
I have an application that working with files named like <name>.ext (ext is my extension) I can run it this way: myapp.exe <file.ext> But when I try to open this file from HTML page (<a href="a.ext">file</a> ) IE asks me about open or save. How can I have it to stop do this? I've registered my MIME-type in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\Accepted Documents but it have no effect. With the best regards, Vitaly.

I don't think you can force a user to open your file automatically from a web page. That would be a huge potential security risk. However, to set your own computer to open it automatically, just check the box "don't ask me again" when choosing open or save. - Anatari
