I don't see why this node has 3 keep votes, but I'll answer your question anyhow: No. It's not possible with perl, but theoretically you could do it with an ActiveX control. I'm not getting into detail about it, read it up on your own. Note that it's a Micro$oft thing, so it's audience is limited. My best answer: don't do it. Let the user download it and execute it themselves. No extra work for you, the amount of work an internet user expects to have to do, and it keeps the internet the way it was meant to be. Dont Do It. Period.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
