How to open an MPX file through a browser

I need to open an MPX file in a browser at runtime usign java.

I have used the following mime-types:
application/x-project
application/vnd.ms-project

But these are of no use, please let me know the right mime-type to open an
MPX file in a browser or any other possible alternative.

Hi KB,

I've no idea! I sounds as though you'll need some code to allow this,
though you will need Project loaded on a computer to make any changes to the
project. Try posting on the server newsgroup. Please see FAQ Item: 24.

information can be seen at this web address: http://www.mvps.org/project/.

I'm not sure it's even possible to open a MS Project MPX or MPP file in a
browser using Java. AFIK, one needs to have MS Project installed to open
them unless the project has been published to Project Server and then opened
using Project Web Access.
