what want print cash register asp application, means call exe file operates directly cash reigister txt file printed. more correct formulation of problem can found on this link .
the solution given there following three:
using link pointing exe file - exe file downloaded , operates driver.
using resident program on client computer listening on port - server connects , operates driver.
using activex object - driver operated client script internet browser.
i want not using resident program, directly browser. in respect found solution in java using applets, fine, have asp.net, , way can using activex object, , problem work on internet explorer, not option.
after thoroughly searching internet problems ca concentrated in following question: how ca run exe client side on browser without using activex objects?
i know questions was posed thousands of times, there plug-in, loophole, form of java applet asp page :), can me solve problem?
update:
thanks comment , answer. solution choose whenever printing request formed main asp application updates database request , resident application scans same database changes , creates , prints txt.
luckily not possible (imagine security issues if possible).
however, still have options:
- offer .exe download. portable way
- use .net clickonce setup. start installer single click in ie , browsers have clickonce extension enabled. in other browsers provide setup.exe download.
