Solve : Running html files from dos?

Answer»

[size=16]I would like to run a html file from a batch file this is the command I am using:

"C:\Program Files\flash items\readme.html\"

but when i run it it just says '"C:\Program Files\flash items\readme.html\"' is not recognised as an internal or EXTERNAL command, OPERABLE program or batch file.

Please Help[/size]You want to "call" the file :

call "C:\Program Files\flash items\readme.html"

Good Luck

AlmnIt still replys with the same error message :-?Quote

'"C:\Program Files\flash items\readme.html\"'

You've entered


"

AND

'

It's just the => " <= you should enter...YES when it replys it puts ' round the file name (i dont actually type it like that!!)Seems to me you are TRYING to Run a file, is it not necessary to Run a program (.exe etc) to DISPLAY a .html file :-?

Maybe something like Start "c:\internet explorer" and somehow point I.E. at the file to be displayed :-?

At the command prompt enter Start/? to see the parameters etc...
