Web Start JNLP Web Start from javascript or jquery

Can you call a JNLP file from javascript or jquery?

i have an applet i converted to Web Start JNLP. the java process runs in the background. i was calling applet from javascript using DeployJava.runApplet(attributes, parameters, version);

how can i call JNLP file without leaving the current page. just launch the java class from jar file?

Solution

  • do you mean download JNLP file by javascript? you can simply put

    onclick="window.location.href='xxx.jnlp';"

    However, you cannot call the web start application from Javascript. It is out of the browser.
