Programs for MS Windows can associate some protocols with them. So when you click in browser, registered program for protocol "myprotocol" will be opened. Like "mailto:[email protected]" opens your Email programm.
I have a website and want to know if visitor of my web site have registered some protocol in his system or not. So when he clicks on link and don't have protocol registered some page like "Please, install my programm". Otherwise registered program starts. How can I do this with javascript or avtiveX or something else?
I know how to do this for Firefox and Crome(Using "Location" header and iframe), but don't know how to do it for IE and Opera. Please help me.
