How can I make a disc eject via HTML?

Yes, I said via HTML. Is it possible?

You cannot. Just like you can't make a disc eject from your computer using a book (besides throwing the book at the eject-button).

To expand on his question - I have been wondering for a while now if it is possible to get a disk to eject by clicking on a Pidlshortcut (or any shortcut, for that matter)? I'm pretty sure it can be done, but I never did find out how.

That doesnt really work.

Read this.

You also need to make sure you have read access for media player. Another way is to write a Java Applet or use a ActiveX control. A mojority of browsers throw out request for ActiveX unless its signed. I'd write a small applet to do this.

Not possible using just HTML. As djwilliams said, you need some kind of external technology--there are programs around that will just eject your CD-ROM drive, but they're not web-based.

Dude, I cannot copy the text in the box of HTML!!! Pasted into FrontPage in HTML mode, and in normal mode the HTML appears in a box with another box above it. D***, it's annoying!

Can you remove the box?

There's your first problem, using FrontPage. He KINDLY used the "box" to show you coding with proper color so it would be easier to see. Just copy and paste it into a Notepad document. Copy and paste from there to FP.
