Re: OT Auto Run Feature for CDROM

["Paul Gordon" <paul_gordon@xxxxxxx>]

I should imagine it should be as simple as putting an
"AUTORUN.INF" file on 
the root directory of the CD containing the following:

[autorun]
OPEN=path to your HTML file here

I reckon that should open the default browser on the client's machine with
your page loaded up...

obviously, the clients have to have autoinsert notification turned on for
their CD drives for this to work...
