Maybe I am in the wrong place and doing this the wrong way... please
tell me if you think there is a better way.
I need to transfer some files from a server to the client workstation.
The transfer has to be initiated from a page served up by the web
server. This is easy enough to do with VBScript and the FSO but I
have to loosen up the browser security and my (military) employer will
not allow that. So, is there some way I can take this script and sign
it and the user can run it once the certificate is accepted?
I am not resigned to using VBScript, it just seemed to be the easiest
way and works well. If it makes more sense to make an exe with
something like cpp and sign it, that's OK too. Surely there are some
tutorials on the web on how to do this, but I can't find any, which
makes me fear that it can't be done.
I could use an HTA if there is a way to initiate the HTA from the web
page and to pass it a parameter (the folder with the files - it will
vary with each transfer).
FWIW, I can create a page with links to all the files and by clicking
on them cause the 'save as' dialog to come up and let the user save
them. Problem is, sometimes there will be lots of files and I don't
want the user to have to click and save each one individually.
Any help will be greatly appreciated... TIA
