Re: exe in html

The links on the page on the CD must be in relation to the files on the CD (after they are burned on the CD).

Here's one way how to do what you want.

1. Create a folder on your PC and call ti CDTEMP.

2. copy all the files you want to burn to the CD into this temporary folder. If you want folders and sub folders on the CD, organize the contents into folders and sub folders. Also, copy the executables files into CDTEMP.

3. With FP create a blank web page and save to the desktop (not the FP web)as index.html. Then close frontage.

4. Move the the file index.html into the temporary folder.

5. With FP, edit index.html and add relative links to the files located into the CDTEMP or files in its sub folders. The links in html view must be in this format:

<a href="file.html">item</a>

<a href="folder/file.html">item</a>

<a href="file.exe">item</a>

After you are done with all the links, verify that they work and that they open files within the CDTEMP tree.

The file index.html will be your menu when you view the page on the CD rom or the temporary folder.

6. If you want to the CD Rom to start automatically when it's inserted in the computer, create the related autorun files and save them into the CDTEMP. See intstructions at:

8. Burn all the contents of CDTEMP (not the folder CDTEMP) into a Cd rom

I hae done quite a bit of Googling but to no real success.
