Ok then
i am running win2k on a 100mbs network.
i have done some super sneaky **** in order for my iso machine/server to automagically mount isos into daemon tools, namely, batch files.
here is my base bat:
C:\iso\D-Tools\daemon.exe -mount 0,"\\Iso\Shared\Iso\isos\Wolfeinstein\RZR-Wolf.cue"
NOW, at the moment i have about 22 different batch files, co-responding to the relevant game (ie, replace Wolf with Half-Life or something)
i want to be able to have some sort of system that will allow me to:
a: select the iso i wish to mount through either a drop down list, or a browse box.
b: select the directory of the daemon tools install, as it is, everyone who wishes to use this iso-server/web-install set-up *has* to have daemon tools installed into "c:\iso\D-Tools\daemon.exe"
i just can't for the life of me sort this **** out, and it's starting to get on my **** (note: i only have ***** ****, so don't get excited).
What I was looking at, however, was something purely html/java based, and as i know nothing of these two things (thank dreamweaver for that) i was unsure of how to do it.
Person comes round, plugs in computer, sets up their computer so that it it can ping 192.168.0.44 (or whatever the iso server may be).
goes to internet explorer. types in "iso" to connect to the iso servers webpage.
*it all works up to here*
now, from here, i have a complicated series of batches and links etc. this is what i want to get rid of.
i want to be able to point a a drop down list/browseable thingy to both the game they want to run, and the location of their daemon tools instalation folder.
and i just can't do it
i need to use some form of batch file to get around the securitys imposed by IE and Windows, and daemon tools needs to be started on a command line to make it load up the *.img/*.ccd
